The clock cannot be set during delay timed cooking, if one of the timers is in use or if self clean or Sabbath mode is active.

After a power failure, the time on the display may flash, indicating that the time may not be correct.

After pressing the clock key, you must enter the time and press START soon afterward. If you wait longer than six seconds between pressing keys, the display will go back to the original setting.

24/12 Hour Clock (Military Time)

The oven is set to 12-hour (non-military) time at the fac- tory. 24 hour time is also known as military time.

1:36 PM = 13:36 military time.

If you want to switch the clock to 24 hour time or switch from military back to regular time:

1.Press and hold the clock key for six seconds. The display will indicate the mode the clock is currently set to, 12 Hr or 24 Hr.

2.Press the # key to change the clock mode. To leave the setting as is, do not touch any keys.

3.Press CANCEL · SECURE to return to the main dis- play. If you have set the clock to 24 hour time, the keypad will allow you to enter military time when set- ting the clock.

Setting the Temperature Scale

You can select the temperature scale (Fahrenheit or Cel- sius) the oven uses to display the cooking temperature. The oven is preset at the factory to Fahrenheit.

To change the temperature scale:

1.Press and hold the BROIL key (under UPPER OVEN on double ovens).

2.The display will indicate the temperature scale the control panel is currently set to, “F” or “C”.

3.Press the # key to change the temperature scale. To leave the setting as is, do not touch any keys.

4.Press CANCEL · SECURE. The control panel will go back to the regular clock display, set to the new tem- perature scale.

Before You Cook...

Dacor recommends turning the oven on for one hour at 500°F to burn off any residual oils used during the manufacturing process. Any of these oils left on the inner parts can cause an undesirable smell the first few times the oven is used.

When you use your oven to bake or roast, it preheats automatically. The preheat cycle rapidly brings the oven chamber up to the proper cooking temperature. It takes several minutes to preheat the oven. Preheat time depends on the temperature settings. The time may be longer depending on the type of electrical supply in your community. There is no preheat cycle for any of the broil modes.

After you pull food out of the oven, it will continue to cook. This process is called “carry-over.” The larger the portion of food, the longer it will cook. It is best to let the meat rest after it comes out of the oven for 10 to 15 minutes before carving. Doing so will allow the meat to retain its juices and make it easier to carve.

CAUTION

Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to remain on the oven’s surfaces. The porcelain finish may stain or pit.
