Important information
Clean the oven thoroughly before using it the first time. Then, remove the racks, set the
oven to Bake at 400 °F for 1 hour. There will be a distinctive odor. This is normal.
The kitchen should be well ventilated during this conditioning session.
Energy-saving tips
•Leave the oven door closed except to turn food.
•For cook times over 30 minutes, you can turn the oven off 5-10 minutes early. The
residual heat will finish cooking the food.
•Plan your cooking schedule so you do not have to turn the oven off between items.
•When possible, cook multiple items together.

English6

Safety information
For your safety
When using electrical appliances, follow basic safety precautions, including:
CAUTION
•Use the oven only as instructed in this manual.
•Potentially hot surfaces include oven vents and nearby surfaces, and door seams.
Ensure the oven is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
Do not repair/replace any components unless as specifically recommended in this
manual. A qualified technician should perform all other service.
Before servicing the oven, remove power at the fusebox or circuit breaker.
•Do not leave children unattended near the oven when it is in use.
•Do not let children climb on or play with any part of the oven.
•Do not use the oven as a space heater.
•Do not use water on grease fires. Turn off the oven, and smother the fire by
closing the door, or use a dry-chemical, baking soda, or foam-type extinguisher.
•Avoid scratching or striking the glass doors and control panel. Do not use the
oven if the door glass is damaged.
• Do not keep flammable material (gasoline, plastic, clothing, paper) near the oven.
•Do not wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the oven.
•Do not use high-pressure water cleaners or steam-jet cleaners on the oven.
•If there is an oven fire during self-cleaning, turn the oven off, and wait for the
fire to die. Do not force the door open. Introducing fresh air at self-cleaning
temperatures may cause a burst of flame from the oven.
•Oil buildup in the oven chamber is a fire hazard. Periodically wipe up oil with a
paper towel or rag, then run a self-cleaning cycle before using the oven again.
•Remove all packing material before using the oven.
•Use only dry potholders. Placing moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may
cause steam burns. Do not let the potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not
substitute a towel or other bulky cloth for a potholder.
•A damaged power cord is an electric-shock hazard. Have the cord replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent, or an electrician.
• The oven should be operated only by trained users. Children and they of reduced
physical, sensory, or mental capacity should be supervised by a responsible party.

Safety information
Electrical safety
• Use only the factory installed flexible power cord to connect to the power supply.
•The oven should be serviced only by qualified personnel. Repairs by unqualified
persons may cause injury and oven malfunction, and may void the warranty. For
service, contact a Dacor-authorized center.
•A flush-mounted oven should be operated only if installed in cabinetry that
conforms to accepted safety standards as instructed in this manual.
•If your oven malfunctions, or if fractures, cracks, or splits appear:
-turn off and unplug the oven.
-contact Dacor Customer Service (pg. 4).
WARNING
Turn off the oven before replacing the lamp to avoid the possibility of electric shock.
Child safety
WARNING
•Children and infirm persons should only use the oven under the supervision of a
responsible adult.
•Children should not be allowed to play with the oven.
•Keep children away from the oven door when opening or closing.
•During self-cleaning and even during normal use, oven surfaces get very hot. Keep
children away from the oven during these times.

English 9
Oven
•DO NOT TOUCH THE HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES. Heating
elements may be hot even if dark in color. Interior surfaces become hot enough
to cause severe burns. Do not touch or let clothing or other flammable materials
touch the heating elements or interior oven surfaces unless those surfaces are
cool to the touch. Other oven surfaces (e.g., oven vents and nearby surfaces , the
oven door including the window) become hot enough to cause burns.
•Do not heat sealed food containers. Pressure buildup may burst the containers.
•Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
•Do not the oven for storage.
•Open the oven door carefully to let out hot air or steam before removing food.
•Do not line the oven chamber or racks with aluminum foil. Doing so causes
inefficient heating and creates fire and electric-shock hazards.
•To avoid a burn or fire risk, do not block the vents at the front base of the oven.
•Always adjust the racks when the oven is cool. If a rack must be moved while
the oven is hot, use potholders (keeping them away from the heating element).
•Do not let aluminum foil or a meat probe touch the heating element.
•Do not clean the oven door glass with abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
scrapers. These can mar the glass, possibly causing it to shatter in the future.
CAUTION
Do not operate the oven during a power failure.
If the power fails, turn the oven off. If the oven is on when power returns, the oven may
begin to operate again. Forgotten food may catch fire or spoil.

10English
Safety information
Self-cleaning ovens
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.
•Fumes released during a self-clean cycle may be fatal to pet birds. Move birds
to a well-ventilated room.
•Before self-cleaning the oven, remove all accessories and food, and wipe up
cooking residue. (Excess grease may ignite and cause smoke damage.)
•Do not use commercial oven cleaners or protective coatings on the oven.
•If self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off, and disconnect the power
supply. Have the oven serviced by a qualified technician.
Critical usage warning
CAUTION
•If the oven is flooded by any liquid, call Dacor Customer Assurance (pg. 4). Failure
t o do so may result in electric shock or fire.
•If the oven emits a odd noise, burning smell, or smoke, unplug it immediately to
a void possible electric shock or fire. Contact Dacor Customer Assurance (pg. 4).
•During and immediately after operation, take care not to touch cookware or oven
surfaces without oven mitts.
•If fire ignites in the oven, keep the oven door closed, turn off and unplug the
oven, or shut off power at the fuse box or circuit-breaker panel.
•Carefully remove the wrapping from hot food to avoid steam burns.
•Do not repair, disassemble, or modify the oven. For repair assistance, call Dacor
Customer Assurance (pg. 4).
•Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
•Do not turn the oven off while an operation is in progress.

Safety information
Usage cautions
CAUTION
•In removing coverings from hot cookware, direct steam away from exposed skin.
•Remove lids from baby food jars before heating. Afterward, stir the food well to
distribute heat, and taste-test the temperature before feeding the baby.
•Take care when heating water or other beverages.
•Avoid using a slippery container with a narrow neck. Wait at least 30 seconds
after heating before removing the heated container to avoid an abrupt overflow
and possible burns.
•When opening the oven door, stand to one side to avoid exposure to the heat.
•Take care not to pinch fingers or hands when opening or closing the door.
•The door reveals wires at the bottom for connecting LED lights. Take care not to
damage the wires when handling the door.
•Do not operate the oven with wet hands.
•Do not spray volatile substances (insecticide, benzene, etc) directly on the oven.
•Do not pour water in the oven chamber or other surfaces directly after cooking.
•Do not heat the oven while empty except for self-cleaning.
•Do not defrost beverages in narrow-necked bottles. The bottles can break.
•Do not let the food in the oven touch the heating element.
•Do not overheat food. Overheating food may result in fire.
Critical cleaning warnings
CAUTION
•Do not spray water directly on the oven.
•Do not use substances such as benzene, thinner, or alcohol to clean the
appliance. Discoloration, deformation, electric shock, or fire may result.
•When cleaning, take care not to injure yourself on the oven's sharp edges.
•Do not clean the oven with a steam cleaner, which may corrode metal parts.
