What to Do  
1. Begin by ensuring proper installation and  
grounding of the appliance by a qualified  
technician according to the accompanying  
Installation Instructions. Have the installer  
show you where the fuse or junction box  
and gas valve are located so that you  
know how and where to turn off the utilities.  
If you smell gas, do not use the range.  
Immediately turn off the gas supply at the  
shut off valve, disconnect electrical power  
to the unit at the fuse or junction box,  
and contact the gas supplier or qualified  
appliance technician.  
2. Ensure that the range is used only by  
those individuals who are able to operate it  
properly.  
3. Use the range only for cooking tasks  
expected of a home oven as outlined in  
this manual.  
13. When cooking, set the burner controls so  
that the flame heats only the bottom of the  
utensil and does not lick at the sides of the  
utensil.  
14. When deep fat frying, be certain that the  
pan is large enough to contain the desired  
volume of food without overflow caused by  
bubbling of the fat. Never leave a deep fat  
fryer unattended. Avoid deep fat frying of  
moist or frost-covered foods, as foods with  
high water content may cause spattering or  
spilling of the hot fat. Heat fat slowly, and  
stir together any combinations of oils and  
fats prior to applying heat. Utilize a deep  
fat frying thermometer to avoid heating the  
fat to temperatures above the flash point.  
15. Always turn pan handles to the side or  
back of the range. Do not turn handles  
towards the room where they are easily hit.  
Handles should not extend over adjacent  
burners.  
16. Always check the positions of the control  
knobs to make sure the cooktop is off when  
you are finished cooking.  
17. Before performing any service, turn off the  
gas supply by closing the gas shut-off valve  
and turning off electrical power supply.  
18. Always light each burner prior to placing a  
utensil on the burner grate. Also, turn the  
control knob to the “off” position before  
removing a utensil from the burner grate.

4. Properly clean and maintain the range as  
recommended in this manual.  
5. Use only dry potholders to avoid steam  
burns when removing hot cookware.  
6. Exercise caution when opening the oven  
door. Let hot air or steam escape before  
looking or reaching into the oven.  
7. Allow the oven cool air intake (located at  
the door handle) to remain unobstructed at  
all times.  
8. Position oven racks in desired locations  
when the oven is cool. (If a rack must be  
repositioned after the oven is already hot,  
be certain that the potholder does not  
contact a hot heating element in the oven.)  
9. Before Self-Cleaning the oven, remove the  
broiler grill and pan, oven racks, convection  
fan filter and any other utensils.

may affect burner operation and may result  
in a hazard.  
14. When using the cooktop, do not touch the  
grates, burner caps, burner bases, or any  
other parts in proximity to the flame. These  
components may be hot enough to cause  
burns.  
15. If the cooktop is near a window, do not use  
long curtains as a window treatment. The  
curtains could blow over the cooktop and  
create a fire hazard.  
What is Pure Convection™?  
Setting the Time of Day  
Follow these two steps to set the correct  
time of day:  
1. Press the “CLOCK” touch pad. The time  
of day will flash, “AM” or “PM” will be  
displayed, and “TIME” will flash in the  
display.  
2. Press the touch pad “+” or “–” until the  
correct time of day is displayed and  
release.  
Your new oven has the best cooking system  
available today, “Pure Convection™”. Pure  
Convection™ is a total system approach to  
cooking. The heat source is a third element  
outside the cooking cell behind a “baffle.” Not  
only does the baffle separate the food from  
the heat source, it channels the air from the  
“Convection Fan” evenly into the cell improving  
hot or cool spots in the oven. This system is  
what allows multi-rack cooking while achieving  
even results from one rack to another.  
The other component in Pure Convection™ is  
the “Filter.” The filter eliminates the transference  
of flavors when cooking entire meals and also  
keeps the oven cleaner.

Oven Modes  
Oven Racks & Supports  
Preheating the Oven  
Three chrome-plated oven racks are provided.  
Always remember to position the racks prior to  
heating the oven. Also, remove the oven racks  
prior to self-cleaning to prevent permanent  
discoloration of the racks.  
The oven features an automatic Preheat cycle  
that rapidly brings the oven chamber up to  
temperature. Simply by choosing a cooking  
mode and setting a temperature, the oven will  
automatically perform the Preheat function. The  
Preheat cycle operates in Standard Bake, Pure  
Convection™ and Convection Bake modes.  
There is no Preheat cycle for the Broil or  
Convection Broil modes.  
All oven modes are described below:  
1. STANDARD BAKE – In Standard  
Bake mode, the bottom heat element  
provides conventional baking heat.  
Temperatures may be set from 135˚  
to 555˚F in 5˚F increments. Use  
Standard Bake for single rack baking  
and roasting.  
The porcelain rack supports provide five (5)  
heights for positioning of the oven racks.  
2. STANDARD BROIL – The Infrared  
Ceramic Gas Broiler supplies the  
heat in Broil mode. The high wattage,  
top heating element supplies the  
heat in Broil mode in the RSE30  
model only. The broil temperature  
is adjustable from 135˚F, to the “HI”  
setting (equivalent to 555˚F) for  
greater cooking flexibility. Broiling is  
performed with the door closed.  
3. CONVECTION BROIL (RSE30  
model only) – The high wattage, top  
heating element supplies the heat  
in Broil mode in combination with  
the convection fan for better heat  
distribution. The broil temperature  
is adjustable from 135˚F to the “HI”  
setting (equivalent to 555˚F) for  
greater cooking flexibility. Broiling is  
performed with the door closed.  
4. PURE CONVECTION™ – In Pure  
Convection™ mode a third heating  
element, encircling the convection  
fan located in the rear of the oven  
chamber, acts as the heat source. The  
convection fan draws air from the oven  
chamber, then forces it across the  
hot convection heating element. The  
heated air is directed back into the  
oven chamber through the convection  
baffle. The baffle distributes the  
heated air evenly to ensure uniform  
results. Temperatures may be set  
from 135˚ to 555˚F in 5˚F increments.  
Use this mode for single rack baking,  
multiple rack baking, roasting, and  
preparation of complete meals.  
5. CONVECTION BAKE – In this  
combination convection-radiant mode,  
the lower element provides the heat.  
As in Pure Convection™ mode, the  
convection fan and baffle combine to  
circulate heated air evenly throughout  
the oven chamber. Temperatures may  
be set from 135˚F to 555˚F in 5˚F  
increments. Use this mode for single  
rack baking, multiple rack baking and  
roasting.  
6. SELF-CLEAN – In the pyrolytic  
Self-Clean mode, the oven reaches  
extreme high temperatures, thereby  
burning off oven soil automatically.  
The Self-Clean time is adjustable up  
to four hours so that varying degrees  
of oven soil can be successfully  
removed. Also, the Self-Clean cycle  
can be delayed to start at a later time  
if desired.  
To install a rack, align the left and right edges of  
the rack with the horizontal guide rails of the rack  
supports, then slide the rack into the oven.  
NOTE:  
Allowing the oven to completely pre-heat  
prior to placing food in the oven will avoid  
excessive browning of the food. After the  
oven signals that the pre-heat is complete,  
allow 3-5 more minutes for the heat patterns  
to normalize in the oven and then place your  
food inside.

“TIMER 2”. The clock will display “00:00”,  
and “TIMER 1”, or  
“TIMER 2” will flash.  
2. Press the “+” pad until the desired time is  
displayed on the clock.  
3. After “TIMER 1” has expired, the clock  
will sound off with one second beeps and  
“TIMER 1” will appear in the display. After  
the “TIMER 2” minute timer has expired,  
the clock will sound alternating one and  
two second beeps and “TIMER 2” will  
appear in the display. The beeper can be  
silenced by pressing the “TIMER” touch  
pad while the beeper is sounding.  
Follow these steps to operate the oven  
modes:  
1. Position oven rack(s) at the proper

3. Press either the “+” or “–” pad. The default  
temperature will be displayed.  
4. To adjust the default temperature for  
baking, press and hold the “TIME•TEMP”  
pad. (Press “+” key to increase the  
temperature setting, “–” to decrease.)  
“PRE” and “ON” will appear in the  
clock display, and the oven will begin  
to heat. If in a convection mode, the  
convection fan will turn on. Also, the  
clock display will change from the desired  
cooking temperature to the actual oven  
temperature, starting with 135˚F. The  
temperature display will increase in 5˚F  
increments until the desired temperature is  
reached.  
IMPORTANT:  
Cancellation of the Minute Timer does not  
turn off the oven if it is operating. You must  
manually shut the oven off by pressing the  
“CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad.  
NOTES:  
1. To view the current time of day rather  
than the remaining time on the Minute  
Timer, just press the “CLOCK” touch  
pad. To change back to a Minute Timer  
display, press the “TIMER 1” or “TIMER  
2” touch pad.  
2. To cancel the Minute Timer while in  
progress, press the “TIMER 1 or 2”  
touch pad two times. The clock display  
will return to the time of day.  
3. The Minute Timers may be used at the  
same time as Delay Timed Cooking or  
Self-Clean.  
4. The Minute Timers will beep for 2  
minutes (if not cancelled) before  
automatically shutting off.  
NOTE:  
Do not place food inside the oven until the  
Preheat cycle is complete.  
When the desired temperature is attained, the  
Preheat cycle is complete. The clock will beep  
once and “PRE” and “ON” will disappear from  
the display. (From this time forward, the “ON”  
display will cycle on and off with the heating  
elements.)  
5. Carefully place the food onto the desired  
rack(s) within the preheated oven.  
6. It is recommended that a Minute Timer be  
set to time the cooking process.  
7. When the time expires and/or the  
food is done cooking, press the  
“CANCEL•SECURE” pad to turn off the  
oven.  
5. Pressing the “CANCEL•SECURE”  
pad when the beeper is sounding will  
cancel both the beeper and the cooking  
function.

7. Bakeware Tips:  
poultry with melted butter, margarine, or oil  
before and during roasting.  
Securing Controls  
Use the pan size and type  
recommended by the recipe to ensure  
best results.  
Cakes, quick breads, muffins and  
cookies should be baked in shiny,  
reflective pans for light, golden crusts.  
Medium gauge aluminum sheets  
with low sides should be used when  
preparing cookies, biscuits and cream  
puffs.  
4. For Convection roasting, do not use pans  
with tall sides. They interfere with the  
circulation of heated air over the food.  
5. When using a meat thermometer, insert the  
probe halfway into the center of the thickest  
portion of the meat. (For poultry, insert the  
thermometer probe between the body and  
leg into the thickest part of the inner thigh.)  
To ensure an accurate reading, the tip of  
the probe should not touch bone, fat or  
gristle. Check the meat temperature 2/3 of  
the way through the recommended roasting  
time.  
6. After reading the meat thermometer once,  
insert it 1/2 inch further into the meat,  
then take a second reading. If the second  
temperature registers below the first,  
continue cooking the meat.  
7. Remove meats from the oven when the  
thermometer registers 5˚ to 10˚F below the  
desired temperature. The meat will continue  
to cook after removal.  
To avoid accidentally turning the oven on,  
activate the “SECURE” feature. Press and hold  
the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad for approximately  
three seconds. This will disable the control  
panel and allow cleaning the controls without  
accidentally starting any functions. Three beeps  
will sound and “OFF” will appear in the display  
when the control panel has been secured.  
Bake most frozen foods in their  
original foil containers placed on a  
flat cookie sheet. Follow the package  
recommendations.  
When using glass bakeware, reduce  
the recipe temperature by 25˚F, except  
when baking pies or yeast breads.  
Follow the standard recipe baking time  
for pies and yeast breads.  
To re-activate the control panel, again push  
and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad for three  
seconds. Three beeps will sound and the “OFF”  
will disappear from the display.  
Baking  
In addition to the conventional radiant-heat  
Standard Bake mode, certain DACOR ranges  
offer two additional baking modes: Pure  
Convection™ or Convection Bake.  
Avoid the use of old, darkened pans.  
Warped, dented, stainless steel and  
tin-coated pans heat unevenly and will  
not give uniform baking results.  
8. Tips for Pan Placement:  
Place pans carefully on the oven  
8. Allow roasts to stand 15 to 20 minutes after  
roasting in order to make carving easier.  
9. If using a cooking bag, foil tent, or other  
cover, use Bake Mode rather than  
As a general rule, a convection mode  
will allow preparation of most foods at  
reduced temperatures for shorter periods  
of time, while also producing superior  
results. Typically you can reduce standard  
temperature by 25˚F and cook for 10% less  
time. Baked goods will have golden-brown  
crusts with flaky textures, and meats will have  
crispy exteriors with succulent juices sealed  
inside.  
racks. Turn pans on the racks so that  
the long sides run left to right, parallel  
to the door.  
Convection Mode. The recipe time and  
temperature will have to be adjusted as  
well.  
9. Adjustments to recipe times and  
temperatures will have to be made  
when baking at high altitudes. Consult  
a cookbook on high-altitude cooking or  
contact the Home Economics Departments  
at your state university for specific  
recommendations.  
10. Roasting times always vary according to  
the size, shape and quality of meats and  
poultry. Less tender cuts of meat are best  
prepared in Bake and may require moist  
cooking techniques. Follow your favorite  
cookbook recipes.  
11. Reduce spatter by lining the bottom of the  
roasting pan with lightly crushed aluminum  
foil.  
Because of variations in food density, surface  
texture and consistency, there are a few foods  
that may be prepared more successfully in the  
Bake mode. For this reason, Bake mode is  
recommended when preparing baked goods  
such as custard.  
NOTE:  
For common baking problems refer to  
your Dacor cookbook. Your complimentary  
cookbook was packed with your range. If  
you did not receive your cookbook, please

Using the Temperature Probe  
1. To convert Conventional Bake recipes to  
our convection recipes, reduce temperature  
by 25˚F and the cooking time by  
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry,  
internal food temperature is the best test for  
properly cooked food. The Temperature Probe  
takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking  
food to the exact temperature you desire.  
approximately 10%.  
2. Some recipes, especially those that are  
homemade, may require adjustment and  
testing when converting from standard  
to convection modes. If unsure how to  
convert a recipe, begin by preparing the  
recipe in Bake mode. After achieving  
acceptable results this way, follow the  
Convection guidelines listed. If the food is  
not prepared to your satisfaction during this  
first Convection trial, adjust only one recipe  
variable at a time (such as cooking time,  
rack position or temperature) and repeat  
the convection test. If necessary, continue  
adjusting one recipe variable at a time until  
satisfactory results are achieved.  
Roasting  
All baking modes can be used to successfully  
roast in your oven. However, the Convection  
mode is recommended to produce meats that  
are deliciously seared on the outside and  
succulently juicy on the inside in record time.  
Foods that are exceptional, when prepared in  
a Convection mode, include: beef, pork, ham,  
lamb, turkey, chicken, and cornish hens.

3. Do not open the oven door frequently  
during baking. Look through the door  
window to check the progress of baking  
whenever possible.  
4. Use the Minute Timers to time baking  
functions.  
5. Wait until the shortest recommended  
baking time before checking food. For  
baked goods, a wooden pick placed in the  
center should come clean when the food is  
done.  
2. Using a roasting rack, always roast meats  
fat side up in a shallow pan. Always  
use a pan that fits the size of the food  
being prepared. The broiler pan and grill,  
accompanying the oven, can be used in  
most cases. No basting is required when  
the fat side is up. Do not add water to  
the pan. It will cause a steamed effect.  
Roasting is a dry heat process.  
3. Poultry should be placed breast side up  
on a rack in a shallow pan that fits the size  
of the food. Again, the broiler pan and grill  
accompanying the oven can be used. Brush

2. Insert the Probe to the point marked by  
your finger into the meat. The Probe should  
not touch the bone, fat, gristle or the  
bottom of the pan.  
7. The oven will go to the “HOLD” mode for 2  
Delay Timed Cooking  
hours after the internal temperature of the  
food has reached the desired temperature  
and will hold the oven temperature at  
150˚F. The residual heat of the oven will  
cause the internal temperature of the  
food to continue to climb. Use hot pads  
to remove the Temperature Probe from  
the food. Do not use tongs to pull on the  
Probe, it might be damaged.  
This function allows the user to start and finish  
a cooking cycle automatically. It is especially  
useful for preparing meals in advance, cooking  
while you are at work or play. Delay Timed  
Cooking can only be used with Standard Bake  
and Convection Bake modes. lt will not function  
in Broil mode.  
For roasts with no bone, insert the Probe  
into the side of the roast in the center.  
For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the  
Probe into the center of the lowest large  
muscle or joint.  
For dishes such as meat loaf or  
casseroles, insert the Probe into the  
center of the dish. When cooking fish,  
insert the Probe from just above the gill  
into the meatiest area, parallel to the  
backbone.  
WARNING:  
NOTES:  
Food safety is an important consideration  
when using delayed cooking modes. To  
avoid potential sickness and spoiling of  
food, take the following steps:  
1. Avoid using foods that will spoil while  
waiting for the cooking cycle to begin.  
Typical foods to avoid include those  
containing eggs and dairy products,  
cream soups, and cooked or uncooked  
meats, poultry and fish.  
2. If cooking will not begin immediately,  
place only very cold or frozen food into  
the oven. Most unfrozen foods should  
never stand in the oven for more than  
two hours before cooking begins.  
3. Do not allow foods to remain in  
the oven more than one hour after  
completion of the cooking cycle. When  
the temperature drops below 140˚F,  
bacteria can develop.  
After meat is pulled out of the oven, it will  
continue to cook. Carry-over cooking affects  
all foods. The larger the item, the longer  
the carry-over. It is best to let the meat rest  
after it comes out of the oven for 10 to 15  
minutes. This will allow the meat to retain its  
juices and continue to set, making it easier  
to carve.  
Insert the Probe into the meatiest part of  
the inner thigh from below, and parallel  
to the leg of a whole turkey.  
Setting the Oven When Using the  
Temperature Probe:  
1. Preheat the oven to the desired  
temperature. (Convection Roasting  
Guide for Meats, Poultry and Fish)  
2. Insert the Temperature Probe into the  
food. (See Proper Temperature Probe  
Placement above.)  
3. After the oven cell has reached the desired  
temperature, place the food into the oven.  
4. Wearing an oven mitt, lift the probe outlet  
cover and plug the Temperature Probe into  
the outlet in the oven. (The outlet is located  
on the left inside oven wall near the front  
of the oven.) Make sure it is pushed all the  
way into the outlet. Close the oven door.  
If the Probe is left inserted in the oven outlet  
when not in use, the control will beep and  
flash PRB until the Probe is unplugged.  
Unplugging the Probe from the oven turns  
the oven off.  
Multiple Rack Baking  
The uniform air circulation provided by  
Convection™ cooking enables the more oven  
capacity to be utilized. Many foods, such  
as pizzas, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins,  
rolls and frozen convenience foods can be  
successfully prepared on either two or three  
racks at the same time. Additionally, complete  
meals can be prepared by using multiple racks.  
To use Delay Timed Cooking, follow these  
steps:  
1. Position oven rack(s) at the proper  
height(s).  
2. Place the food onto the center of the oven  
rack(s).  
3. Select the desired cooking mode and  
temperature.  
4. Press the “COOK TIME” pad and “TIME”  
will appear in the clock display. Press the  
“TIME•TEMP” “+” pad to set the length  
of time that the food will be cooked. The  
“COOK TIME” can be set from 5 minutes to  
11 hours, 50 minutes.  
5.  
Press the “PROBE” button. The  
Display will flash and beep “PRB” if  
the Probe is not inserted properly.  
6. Adjust the temperature to the desired  
setting using the TIME•TEMPERATURE  
buttons. A jump-in temperature of 160˚ will  
appear when the TIME•TEMPERATURE  
key is first pressed. To change to the  
desired temperature, just press the  
See below for specific recommendations.  
Follow the steps in the Oven Modes section, to  
manually operate the oven, or refer to the Delay  
Timed Cooking section below for automatic  
operation.  
TIME•TEMPERATURE key until you reach  
the desired temperature. The temperature  
can be set from 100-200˚.  
MULTIPLE RACK BAKING TIPS  
1. Typically, when baking on two racks, rack  
positions #1 and #4 or #2 and #4.  
2. When adapting a single rack recipe to  
multiple rack baking, it may be necessary  
to add to the baking time. This is due to the  
extra mass of food in the oven.  
After the temperature has been set,  
the control panel temperature readout  
will default to 95˚F, even if the food  
has not reached that temperature. The  
temperature readout will increase in 1˚F  
increments until the food reaches the set  
temperature.

5. The oven can be set to start now or later  
in the day. To start cooking now, do not  
perform any more programming steps. After  
six seconds “PRE”, “ON” and “TIMED” will  
appear in the clock display, and the oven  
will begin heating. After the “COOK TIME”  
has expired, the clock will beep three  
times, and “Hold” will be displayed. The  
cooling fan will continue to run, depending  
upon the length and temperature of the  
cooking process.  
6. Press the “STOP TIME” touch pad, and  
“STOP” will appear in the clock display.  
Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad to enter  
the time of day that you wish the oven to  
shut off. “DELAY” will now be displayed.  
The oven will calculate the correct “START  
TIME.” After the “COOK TIME” has expired,  
the clock will beep three times, and “Hold”  
will be displayed. If cooking in a convection  
mode, the convection fan will also turn  
off at this time. While in “Hold” mode, the  
oven temperature will be maintained at  
150˚F for a period of two hours. “Hold”  
mode can be cancelled by pressing the  
“CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad. The  
cooling fan will continue to run depending  
upon the length and temperature of the  
cooking process.  
Secure Lockout  
Broiling  
To avoid accidentally turning the cooktop on  
while cleaning it, activate the “Secure Lockout”  
feature.  
Broiling is a quick and flavorful way to prepare  
many foods, including steaks, chicken, chops,  
hamburgers and fish. Broiling in the oven is  
completed with the oven door completely  
shut. It is normal and necessary for some  
smoke to be present to give the food a broiled  
flavor. The broil temperature may be adjusted in  
5˚F increments from 135˚F up to the maximum  
setting of “HI”. The “HI” setting is equivalent to  
ON/OFF  
ON/OFF  
ON/OFF  
555˚F.  
Follow these steps to operate the oven  
in Standard Broil (PGR model only) or  
Convection Broil (RSD and RSE Models)  
modes:  
1. Close the door tightly.  
2. Press the “BROIL” or “CONVECTION  
BROIL” pad.  
3. Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” or “–” pad and  
the default temperature setting “HI” will be  
displayed. “HI” is equivalent to 555˚F.  
4. If a temperature other than “HI” is desired,  
press the “TIME•TEMP” “–” pad to reduce  
the temperature. Six seconds after setting  
the temperature, the “ON” indicator will light  
up in the clock display, the broiler element  
will begin heating, and the cooling fan will  
turn on.  
ON/OFF  
CANCEL • SECURE  
MRE Cooktop Controls  
Burner Controls (Gas Burner)  
Indicators have been placed on the control  
housing, next to each control knob, to clearly  
identify the burner controlled by each knob.  
To indicate whether the knob controls burners  
on the left or right, the knobs are grouped  
accordingly. The burner being controlled is  
indicated by a blue indicator light, while the  
adjacent burner is illustrated by a flame icon on  
the control panel.  
DELAY TIMED COOKING TIPS  
5. It is recommended that the user set  
the Minute Timer(s) to time the broiling  
process.  
1. Do not use foods containing baking powder  
or yeast in Delay Timed Cooking. These  
foods will not rise properly.  
6. When the Minute Timer expires  
and/or the food is cooked, press the  
“CANCEL•SECURE” touch pad to turn off  
the oven. The cooling fan will continue to  
run for 30 to 45 minutes depending upon  
the length and temperature of the broiling  
process.  
2. Remember that “COOK TIME” refers to  
the length of the cooking cycle. It does not  
refer to the start time!  
3. The time required to preheat the oven must  
be included in the “COOK TIME.” Thus,  
the “COOK TIME” should be increased by  
about 8 to 12 minutes depending upon the  
temperature setting. The broiler does not  
come on to preheat in the Delay Mode, so  
you will not pre-maturely brown foods.  
To light a particular burner, press in on the  
corresponding control knob, then immediately  
rotate the knob counterclockwise from the off  
(ø) position to the “HIGH” position (larger flame  
icon). All ignitors will spark continuously until  
the gas ignites on the selected burner. Ignition  
should occur within four seconds of turning to  
this position. The ignitors will stop sparking as  
soon as the burner ignites.  
NOTE:  
For broiling and top grill tips refer to your  
Dacor cookbook. Your complimentary  
cookbook was packed with your range. If  
you did not receive your cookbook, please  
contact Dacor at (800) 793-0093 or at www.  
dacor.com.  
Once the burner is ON, reduce the flame  
height by rotating the control knob further  
counterclockwise, then place the utensil on the  
grate. Progressively lower flame heights are  
achieved as the knob is turned toward the small  
flame icon (counterclockwise).  
NOTE:  
The gas broilers are not activated for Pre-  
heat in the Delay-Time cooking mode, so  
Pre-Heat times are increased - but dishes will  
not pre-maturely brown.  
Burner Controls (MRE Only)  
There are a total of four burners, including two  
large burners rated at a maximum output of  
12,500 BTU/HR and two medium burners rated  
at a maximum output of 9,500 BTU/HR. The two  
large burners are located at the front right and  
the rear left of the cooktop, and the two medium  
burners are located in the back right and the  
front left.  
Dehydrating/Defrosting  
To turn the element on, tap the “ON/OFF” key  
then glide your finger across the settings below  
the numbers which correspond to the element  
power. At any time while the element is on, you  
may glide your finger up or down the scale to  
adjust its heat.  
The range can be used to dehydrate or  
defrost foods at low heat settings in “Pure  
Convection™” mode.  
Follow these steps to dehydrate or defrost  
foods:  
1. Position oven rack(s) at the proper  
height(s).  
2. Place the food onto the center of the oven  
rack. (For dehydrating, prepare food as  
recommended then place food onto a  
drying rack.)  
The dual element, located in the front left burner,  
can be activated after the “ON/OFF” key has  
been pressed. At any time during the cooking  
process, the small dual element indicator can  
be tapped to turn the element on or off. It will  
illuminate when the outer ring is activated.  
IMPORTANT:  
1. If the gas does not ignite within four  
seconds, then turn off the valve. Allow  
at least five minutes for any gas to  
dissipate, then repeat the lighting  
procedure.  
3. Press the “PURE CONVECTION™” pad.  
4. Set the temperature to 135˚F. This is the  
minimum temperature that can be set. (For  
dehydrating, a higher temperature setting  
may be required. Follow the recommended  
temperature for the type of food being  
prepared.)  
To turn an element off, tap the Cancel/ Secure  
key. You may turn off all active elements at the  
same time by tapping twice on the Dacor logo  
below the controls.  
5. It is recommended that the user set the  
Minute Timer(s) to time the process.  
6
2. Burner ignitors must always be kept  
clean and dry to function properly.  
Due to the Perma-Flame re-ignition  
feature, dirty or wet ignitors will result  
in constant sparking, even if there is  
a flame present. Additionally, ignitors  
will spark automatically if the flame is  
distorted by a draft or by a ventilation  
system. Eliminate the draft or reduce  
the ventilation blower speed in this  
case.  
Read and follow the CARE AND CLEANING  
INSTRUCTIONS to ensure that proper cooktop  
operation and appearance will be maintained  
throughout the lifetime of the product. Several  
materials and finishes are used in the  
cooktop. Each material and finish must be  
properly cleaned according to the following  
recommendations. Failure to follow these  
recommendations may result in permanent  
damage to the cooktop.  
3. Do not touch any burner cap, burner  
base, or ignitor while the ignitors are  
sparking. An electrical shock could  
result.  
Sealed Burner Assembly  
Cleaning Tips  
WARNINGS:  
Using the Simmer Plate  
4. When the cooktop is cool and/or more  
than two burners are in use, the ignitors  
may continue to spark if the control  
knob is set to the “LOW” position. This  
is normal until the burner warms up.  
The tendency to spark under these  
conditions can be reduced by operating  
the burner at a higher flame setting  
for a short period of time (normally  
60 seconds or less), then adjusting  
the control knob down to the “LOW”  
setting. The burner will also warm up  
faster if a utensil is placed on the grate.  
5. The flame should be steady and blue in  
color. Foreign material in the gas line,  
especially in new construction, may  
cause an orange flame during initial  
operation. This will disappear with  
further use.  
6. The flame should burn evenly around  
the perimeter of the burner, except  
underneath each grate support finger,  
where the flame height is reduced by  
the Smart-Flame feature. If the flame is  
uneven, ensure that the brass burner  
ring and porcelain burner cap are  
properly positioned, then check for any  
foreign material in the burner ring or  
on the burner cap. Remove any foreign  
material with a straightened paper clip,  
wire, or needle. Do not damage the  
brass or distort the shape of the burner  
ring ports.  
1. Before cleaning the cooktop, ensure  
that all burners are turned off and that  
all components are cool enough to  
safely touch.  
2. After cleaning, reassemble all  
components before attempting to  
operate the cooktop.  
The Simmer Plate has been specifically  
designed for simmering and holding food at the  
lowest safe temperature. The Simmer Plate  
is to be used by setting the burner to its  
lowest setting. The Simmer Plate has been  
specifically designed for simmering only.  
The Simmer Plate must be removed when  
cooking.  
Proper cleaning is necessary to maintain  
cooktop performance and appearance, while  
also ensuring safe operation. The cleaning  
effort necessary to maintain the cooktop varies  
according to the type and amount of cooking.  
For example, more frequent cleaning is required  
if the cooktop is used often for frying or other  
high temperature operations.  
To install your Simmer Plate locate the five feet  
on the bottom, align with the five longest fingers  
on the cooktop grate then set the plate on top of  
the grate. When correctly installed, the Simmer  
Plate will rest about 1/2 inch above the top  
surface of the grate and will be locked in place  
to prevent turning.  
Clean the cooktop thoroughly prior to operating  
it the first time. For initial and everyday cleaning,  
use a soft cloth or sponge lightly dampened with  
a solution of warm water and hand dishwashing  
liquid to clean all components.  
Your Simmer Plate has a non-stick coating for  
easy cleaning. Take care in using abrasives on  
the non-stick coating, as it will scratch. Some  
wearing may occur on top of the Simmer Plate  
offset fingers, this is normal with use.  
IMPORTANT:  
NOTE:  
1. To keep the cooktop looking its best,  
clean it after every use as soon as all  
components are cool enough to safely  
touch. Also, quickly wipe up spills that  
occur while cooking, being careful  
not to touch any hot areas. Spills that  
remain on hot burner components will  
be very difficult to clean, especially if  
allowed to burn on. Spills of certain  
foods, such as tomatoes, citrus  
Non-stick coatings if used at high  
temperatures can be harmful to birds. Avoid  
keeping pets (birds) in your kitchen during  
cooking.  
Selecting the Proper Cookware  
7. Never light the burners with a match  
or other open flame. If a burner does  
not ignite, consult the Troubleshooting  
section of this manual.  
Utensils will affect the overall safety and  
performance of cooktop cooking, so it is  
important to select them carefully. An improperly  
selected utensil will not cook efficiently or  
evenly. For best results, follow these guidelines:  
1. Use medium to heavy-gauge metal  
cookware with flat and smooth bottoms for  
greatest efficiency.  
juices, vinegar, alcohol, and milk, are  
very harmful if allowed to stand for  
any length of time. Therefore, save  
time while also maintaining a new  
appearance by cleaning regularly and  
shortly after spills occur.  
8. Use low or medium flame heights  
when cooking in utensils that are  
poor conductors of heat, such as  
glass, ceramic, and cast iron cooking  
vessels. Reduce the flame height until  
it covers approximately 1/3 of the  
utensil diameter. This will ensure even  
heating within the utensil and reduce  
the likelihood of burning or scorching of  
food.  
9. Reduce the flame if it is extending  
beyond the bottom of the utensil. A  
flame that licks along the sides of the  
utensil is potentially dangerous.  
10. Reduce the flame height, to the  
minimum level necessary, to perform  
the desired cooking process. Remember  
that food cooks just as quickly at a  
gentle boil as it does at a vigorous,  
rolling boil. Maintaining a higher boil  
than is necessary wastes energy, cooks  
away moisture, and causes a loss in  
food flavor and nutrient level.  
2. Use the mildest cleaner or procedure  
available to perform the cleaning  
operation.  
3. Use only a sponge, soft cloth, fibrous  
or plastic brush, and nylon pad for  
cleaning. Avoid the use of abrasive  
cleaners such as steel wool.  
2. Use utensils with tight fitting lids to retain  
heat, odors, and steam.  
WARNING:  
To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off  
all controls and ensure the cooktop is cool  
before cleaning.  
4. Always dry components completely  
before using the cooktop.  
5. The use of brand names is intended  
only to indicate a type of cleaning  
agent or cleaning implement. All  
products listed by name must be used  
in accordance with the manufacturer’s  
recommendations. Use of a brand name  
does not constitute an endorsement,  
nor does omission of a particular brand  
imply that a product is inferior.  
IMPORTANT:  
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning  
agents, waxes, polishes, or commercial  
cooktop cleaners to clean the cooktop.  
7
To re-activate the control panel, again push  
and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad for three  
seconds. “OFF” will disappear from the display.  
IMPORTANT:  
Porcelain Surfaces  
IMPORTANT:  
The grates, burner caps, and spill-over  
areas on the cooktop, unlike other porcelain  
enamel appliances in your home, are  
exposed to extremely high temperatures  
in a matter of seconds. In addition to  
this extreme thermal shock, the grates  
are subjected to mechanical shock when  
utensils are placed on or slid across them.  
Finally, spillovers introduce foods with high  
acidity to all of the porcelain components.  
Due to these severe operating conditions,  
all porcelain enamel components on the  
cooktop will undergo an inevitable change  
in appearance with use. Meticulous care  
and cleaning will slow but not eliminate this  
natural and expected aging process.  
The oven interior and inner door liners are  
finished in porcelain enamel. Clean these  
surfaces with a solution of mild detergent  
and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft  
cloth. Do not use abrasives or commercial  
oven cleaners. Always remove excess  
grease and soil from the oven interior and  
door prior to using the Self-Cleaning cycle.  
Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild  
detergent and warm water. Rinse, dry and  
polish with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
IMPORTANT:  
Clean the control panel with a solution of  
mild detergent and warm water. DO NOT  
USE PERTOLIUM OR CHLORINE BASED  
CLEANERS, ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR  
SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL PERMANENTLY  
DAMAGE THE FINISH. Dry the control panel  
completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
Door Handle & Control Housing  
IMPORTANT:  
Broiler Pan  
Clean the door handle and control panel  
housing with a solution of mild detergent  
and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft  
cloth. DO NOT USE PERTOLIUM OR  
CHLORINE BASED CLEANERS, ABRASIVE  
CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL  
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH.  
Treating the porcelain components with care will  
slow the natural deterioration that takes place  
with cooktop use. Please follow these guidelines  
to keep the porcelain parts looking their best:  
The oven broiler pan is finished in porcelain  
enamel. Clean both components in a solution  
of detergent and hot water. For heavy soil  
conditions, use a scouring pad such as steel  
wool with plenty of water. Rinse well after  
cleaning.  
1. Do not use utensils having rough bottoms,  
as this can result in permanent damage  
to the top surfaces of the porcelainized  
grates.  
2. Do not drop utensils onto the grates or  
drag heavy pots across the tops of the  
grates.  
3. Set the grates into the locating dimples  
gently. Do not drop the grates into place.  
4. Use caution when cooking to avoid spills  
as much as possible. Porcelain is acid-  
resistant but not acid-proof, so some foods  
can cause permanent damage if allowed to  
remain on porcelain surfaces.  
Oven Racks  
Glass Surfaces  
Oven racks are chrome-plated. For everyday  
cleaning, apply a solution of detergent and hot  
water. To clean heavy soil, use a scouring pad  
such as steel wool with plenty of water, or use a  
solution of 1 cup ammonia to 2 gallons of water.  
Remove racks during Self-Cleaning. If racks  
are left in the oven during self-cleaning, they  
will permanently discolor.  
Clean all glass surfaces with a solution of mild  
detergent and hot water. Use a mild glass  
cleaner to remove fingerprints or smears. Dry  
completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
Top Frame  
Everyday cleaning of the cooktop surface is  
best accomplished with a soft cloth or sponge  
dampened in a solution of warm water and hand  
dishwashing liquid.  
Convection Fan Filter  
Daily cleaning of the grates and burner caps is  
best accomplished with a soft cloth or sponge  
dampened in a solution of warm water and hand  
dishwashing liquid. Grates and burner caps  
should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.  
WARNING:  
Remove the filter only when it is cool.  
Stubborn stains may be removed by applying  
full-strength sprays such as Simple Green, Ajax  
All-Purpose Cleaner, Formula 409, or Scotch  
Guard.  
The convection fan filter is made of stainless  
steel. Remove the filter regularly for cleaning,  
as a clogged filter will reduce the effectiveness  
of convection cooking modes. Soak the filter  
in hot soapy water according to the package  
directions. Dry the filter completely before  
re-installing. Remove the filter during Self-  
Cleaning. If the filter is left in the oven during  
Self-Cleaning it will permanently discolor.  
Re-install the filter before cooking in the  
oven again. Failure to do so will expose the  
convection fan blade that rotates at high  
speed during convection modes.  
Stubborn stains may be removed by applying  
full-strength sprays such as Simple Green, Ajax  
All-Purpose Cleaner, Formula 409, or Scotch  
Guard. Metal polishing compounds such as  
Luneta or Flitz may also be used. (If you are  
unable to locate these cleaning compounds,  
please phone the DACOR Customer Service  
Department for a referral.)  
IMPORTANT:  
1. Never use the glass cooktop surface as  
a cutting board.  
2. Do not use abrasive cleaners or  
applicators on the glass cooktop.  
3. Do not try to remove heavy spills with  
a sharp object such as a knife or metal  
spatula. Sharp objects may scratch the  
glass cooktop.  
Mildly abrasive cleaners or applicators, such  
as S.O.S. Pads, soap-filled steel wool pads,  
Soft Scrub, or Bon-Ami may be used with  
extreme care on occasion to remove the most  
serious stains. Exercise caution – extensive  
use of abrasives will eventually damage the  
porcelain enamel surface.  
Step 1: Orient the filter so that the two  
mounting tabs are towards the rear, open  
end down.  
Stainless Steel Surfaces  
Clean all stainless steel surfaces with the  
provided Elco Stainless Steel Cleaner. Rinse  
and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
Control Panel  
To avoid accidentally turning the oven on while  
cleaning the control panel, activate the “Secure”  
feature. Press and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE”  
pad for approximately three seconds. This will  
disable the control panel and allow cleaning  
the controls without accidentally starting any  
functions. “OFF” will appear in the display when  
the control panel has been secured.  
IMPORTANT:  
If commercially available stainless steel  
cleaners are used, it is important to read the  
labels for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a  
corrosive substance. If these compounds are  
present, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft,  
lint-free cloth.  
Removing and Installing the Convection Fan Filter  
Step 1  
Always wipe stainless steel surfaces with the  
grain.

Step 2: Hook the two mounting tabs over the  
center horizontal bar.  
5. Test the burners. If erratic clicking is still  
present, make sure the ignitor is completely  
dry. If the unit still exhibits problems after  
drying, call your local DACOR Authorized  
Servicer.  
Burner Bases  
The brass burner rings spread the flame evenly  
around the burner perimeters. The burner rings  
must seat properly in the burner bases to enable  
proper cooktop operation. To ensure proper  
seating, five positioning tabs have been placed  
on the bottom of each burner ring to slide into  
corresponding notches in the fixed burner base.  
Self-Cleaning  
The electric door latch is a convenient safety  
feature. The door latch is automatically activated  
after selecting the Self-Clean mode. The latch  
ensures that the oven door cannot be opened  
while the interior oven temperatures are unsafe  
to the user.  
Burner Rings  
The burner rings are made of brass. To remove  
the burner ring, first lift off the porcelain burner  
cap. The burner ring may then be removed from  
the burner base. Soak the burner ring in a warm  
solution of hand dishwashing liquid and water,  
then rinse well with clean water. Dry the burner  
ring thoroughly before placing it back on the  
burner base.  
Removing and Installing the Convection Fan Filter  
Step 2  
The oven features an automatic pyrolytic  
Self-Cleaning cycle to eliminate the need for  
difficult and time-consuming manual scrubbing  
of interior surfaces. During this cycle, the oven  
reaches extreme high temperatures to burn off  
soil and deposits. A powder ash residue is left  
in the bottom of the oven after completion of the  
Self-Clean cycle.  
Oven Exhaust Cover  
(On Selected Models Only)  
Cleaning is best accomplished with a soft cloth  
or sponge dampened in a solution of warm  
water and hand dishwashing liquid  
Stubborn stains may be removed by applying a  
metal polishing compound.  
The Self-Clean time is variable from 2 to 4  
hours to offer flexibility in handling various soil  
conditions. A 2-hour cycle normally handles a  
moderately soiled oven, whereas a 4-hour cycle  
is recommended for a heavily soiled condition.  
The Self-Clean cycle can also be delayed to  
start at a later time if desired.  
Knobs and Spill Protector Rings  
The control knobs provided with these ranges  
are designed for ease of use and longevity. The  
“D” shaped design of the knob shaft ensures  
proper orientation when re-installing the knob.  
Beneath each knob, a spill protector ring  
prevents liquid spills from entering the control  
panel.  
IMPORTANT:  
1. It is normal for some smoke to be  
emitted during the first few Self-Clean  
cycles.  
2. Popping sounds are normal during Self-  
Clean cycles. These sounds are caused  
by the expansion and contraction of  
metal surfaces during heat-up and cool-  
down.  
WARNING:  
Never block the holes in the control panel  
below the knobs. This will impair the flow of  
combustion air and adversely affects burner  
operation, possibly creating a hazardous  
condition.  
Burner Rings  
3. Do not line the oven with aluminum  
foil or other materials. These items can  
melt or burn during a Self-Clean cycle,  
causing permanent damage to the oven.  
4. If racks are left in the oven during a  
Self-Clean cycle, it will affect their ability  
to slide in and out easily. Polish the rack  
edges with a soapy steel wool pad, then  
apply a small amount of vegetable oil  
to the edges so that the racks will slide  
more easily.  
5. If the door is not closed completely, the  
automatic door latch will not be able  
to lock the door when the Self-Clean  
mode is selected. In this case, “door”  
will flash in the clock display. If this  
occurs, press the “CANCEL•SECURE”  
pad and wait approximately 1 minute.  
Repeat the Self-Clean steps from the  
beginning, being certain to close the  
door completely. Do not try to force  
the door open after it is locked, as  
the automatic latch can be damaged.  
If you need to unlock the door, turn  
off the Self-Clean cycle by pressing  
the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad. After  
approximately 1 minute, “LOCK” will  
disappear from the clock display,  
and the door will unlock. The door  
will remain locked until the oven  
temperature falls below 390˚F. Do not  
select any cooking function until the  
oven door is unlocked.  
Burner Ignitors  
The knobs should be washed regularly in  
warm, soapy water. Hand dishwashing liquid  
is excellent for this task. Knobs should be  
removed by gently pulling them straight off of  
the valve shafts. The spill protector rings should  
be cleaned in place. Use caution to avoid  
introduction of moisture into the control panel.  
To replace knobs, align the “D-shaped” opening  
at the bottom of the knob with the “D-shaped”  
valve shaft, then carefully press the knob onto  
the valve shaft.  
Under certain cooking or cleaning conditions,  
your cooktop ignitors may become coated with  
or corroded by food deposits, splattered grease  
or cleaning agents. This condition can cause  
erratic or continuous sparking. Keeping the  
ignitors clean and dry will help to reduce this  
problem.  
To avoid unnecessary and costly service  
calls, the homeowner should perform periodic  
cleaning of the ignitors.  
An Ignitor Cleaning Brush is enclosed for your  
use in cleaning the cooktop ignitors.  
IMPORTANT:  
1. Turn the knobs to the “OFF” position  
prior to removing them from the valve  
stems.  
2. The cooktop should never be operated  
without the knobs and spill protector  
rings in place.  
3. Do not soak the knobs and spill  
protector rings in water or place them in  
the dishwasher.  
4. Do not expose the knobs or spill  
protector rings to direct flame, hot  
utensils, or other sources of heat.  
5. Do not use abrasive or corrosive  
cleaners or applicators. They could  
cause permanent damage.  
To clean the ignitors:  
1. Be sure burners are cool to the touch.  
Remove the grate, burner cap and burner  
rings.  
2. Brush completely around the ignitor,  
including over and under the edge of  
the metal cap and base. Use care while  
cleaning here. The ignitor is porcelain and  
can be fragile.  
3. DO NOT USE WATER when cleaning the  
ignitors. If a liquid must be used to clean  
the ignitor effectively, use a small amount  
of rubbing alcohol.  
4. After cleaning, reinstall the burner ring,  
burner cap and grate. Make sure the brass  
burner ring is properly seated into the  
burner base.

display. The door can now be opened.  
15. Open the door. After ensuring that the  
oven has cooled sufficiently to be safe, use  
a damp cloth or sponge to wipe out the  
powder residue found in the bottom of the  
oven. If white spots remain in the oven,  
remove them with a non-scratch scouring  
pad before using the oven again. These  
spots are normally salt that cannot be  
removed by a Self-Clean cycle.  
Temperatures can be adjusted in  
increments of 5˚F.  
5. After setting the desired temperature  
adjustment, press the “CANCEL•SECURE”  
pad to exit the calibration mode and to  
reset the clock display.  
WARNINGS:  
1. DO NOT OPERATE THE OVEN LIGHTS  
IN THE SELF-CLEAN MODE.  
2. Do not touch the outside surfaces of the  
oven during the Self-Clean cycle.  
3. Do not use commercial oven cleaners  
inside the oven. Use of these cleaners  
can produce hazardous fumes or can  
permanently damage the porcelain  
finishes.  
NOTES:  
1. If “CANCEL•SECURE” is not pressed  
after setting the adjustment, the clock  
display will automatically reset in 6  
seconds.  
16. Re-install the oven racks and convection  
fan filter before cooking in the oven  
Prepare the oven for Self-Cleaning by  
following these steps:  
2. The amount of temperature adjustment  
may be changed again by repeating  
the calibration procedure. The oven  
will only retain the amount of the most  
recent temperature adjustment.  
3. The temperature adjustment is not  
affected by an electrical power failure.  
4. The temperature adjustment only affects  
Bake and Convection modes. Broil  
and Self-Clean temperatures cannot be  
adjusted.  
NOTE:  
1. Clean soil from the oven front frame area  
and the oven door outside of the door  
gasket. Cleaning the door gasket by hand  
can cause it to bend or move. A tight door  
seal is essential for proper baking and  
Self-Cleaning. Rinse surfaces well with a  
solution of vinegar and water, then wipe  
dry. Heavily soiled areas may be cleaned  
with a non-scratching scouring pad.  
2. Remove the broiler pan, all cookware,  
utensils and other loose items from the  
oven chamber. Also, remove all oven  
racks and the convection fan filter to  
prevent them from permanently discoloring.  
However, to clean stubborn particles in the  
convection filter you may elect to simply  
leave it in place during self-clean. The filter  
will discolor due to the high heat, but this  
will not harm the filtering capabilities.  
3. Wipe up excess grease and other food  
spills with a damp cloth. This will minimize  
smoke and increase the efficiency of the  
Self-Clean cycle.  
4. Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help  
remove odors during the Self-Clean cycle.  
5. Close the oven door completely.  
6. Press the “SELF-CLEAN” touch pad. The  
oven will beep once, “CLEAN” will flash,  
and “– –:– –” will be displayed.  
7. Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad and  
the default time of “2:00” hours will be  
displayed.  
8. Increase the self-clean time up to 4 hours  
(depending upon the amount of oven soil)  
by holding the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad.  
9. To delay the self-clean start to a more  
convenient time, press the “STOP TIME”  
touch pad. Then, press the “TIME•TEMP”  
“+” pad to set the time of day for the  
cycle to be complete. “DELAY TIMED” will  
appear in the clock display. The cycle can  
be delayed up to 11 hours and 50 minutes.  
10. Approximately 30 to 60 seconds after  
selecting Self-Clean, the automatic door  
latch will lock the door. “LOCK” and “ON”  
will appear in the clock display. The oven  
will begin heating. The “ON” indicator will  
cycle on and off with the burner.  
If Delay Timed mode has been set, the “ON”  
display and the oven heat will not turn  
on until the programmed time has been  
reached.  
IMPORTANT:  
With the oven at room temperature, if the  
Self-Clean mode is accidentally selected and  
the oven enters Self-Clean mode (indicated  
by “LOCK” and “ON” in the clock display),  
the user must cancel out of this mode before  
attempting to select a different mode. To  
cancel, press the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad.  
Wait at least 60 seconds before attempting  
to select another mode. This allows the  
door latch time to unlock. The user may  
find the temperature in their new oven to  
be different from that of their previously-  
owned appliance. Familiarity with the old  
appliance sometimes makes it difficult to get  
used to a new oven. If you feel that the oven  
temperature is consistently high or low, the  
temperature of the new oven can be adjusted.  
The adjustment needs to be done only once.  
Replacing the Oven Light(s)  
Your new range has oven lights to enhance the  
view into the oven. The light assembly consists  
of a removable lens cover and 40-watt 120VAC  
appliance bulb, as well as a light fixture housing.  
Light bulb replacement is considered to be a  
homeowner maintenance operation.  
WARNINGS:  
To prevent electrical shock and/or personal  
injury:  
1. Make certain that the oven and light  
bulb are cool and that power to the oven  
has been turned off before replacing the  
light bulb.  
2. Always ensure that the lens cover is in  
place when using the oven. The lens  
cover protects the bulb from breakage  
caused by high oven temperatures or  
mechanical shock.  
SELF-CLEANING TIPS  
1. If any soil remains in the oven after  
completion of a Self-Clean cycle, repeat  
the cycle if desired. Increase the cleaning  
time during future cycles.  
2. Clean the oven regularly to prevent  
excessive soil build-up. This will increase  
the efficiency of the Self-Clean cycle and  
reduce the amount of smoke and odors  
generated.  
To replace a light bulb, follow these steps:  
1. Turn off the power at the main power  
supply.  
2. Remove the threaded lens cover from the  
housing by rotating counter-clockwise.  
3. Pull the light bulb out and replace.  
4. Reinstall the threaded lens cover by  
rotating clockwise.  
5. Turn the power back on at the main power  
supply.  
6. Reset the time of day. (Refer to the Setting  
the Time of Day.)  
3. Self-Clean in the cooler evening hours after  
cooking is complete and when electricity  
rates are lower.  
Calibrate the Oven Temperature  
The oven temperature may be adjusted  
(calibrated) by following these steps:  
1. Press “BAKE” selector pad.  
2. Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+” pad to set a  
temperature of 500˚F or higher.  
11. About 50 to 60 minutes will be required  
for the oven to reach the Self-Clean  
temperature.  
12. The Self-Clean cycle can be stopped at  
any time by pressing “CANCEL•SECURE.”  
13. After completion of the Self-Clean cycle,  
the oven will stop heating and the “ON”  
and “CLEAN” indicators will disappear  
from the clock display. Press the  
3. Press and hold the “BAKE” selector  
pad. After approximately 5 seconds the  
temperature display is replaced by “00”.  
The “BAKE” pad can now be released. The  
calibration mode has been accessed.  
4. Press the “TIME•TEMP” “+“ or “–” pad to  
set the amount of temperature adjustment.  
The temperature can be changed a  
maximum of 35˚F higher or lower. Set  
the adjustment to positive (+) numbers  
to increase the oven temperature; set  
the adjustment to negative (–) numbers  
to reduce the oven temperature.
