Operating the Oven

Before You Cook...

•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.

•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.

Racks

You may use either rack type on any level.

WARNING

•To reduce the chance of burns, position the oven racks when the oven is cool. If you must reposition a rack when the oven is hot, use potholders.

To Insert the Standard Oven Racks:

1.Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into the oven first.

2.Attach both sides of the rack to the rack supports in the oven as shown in the diagram below.

3.Begin to slide the rack in, and then, lift up so that the safety notches clear the ends of the rack supports.

4.Push the rack all the way in with both hands.

To Remove the Standard Oven Racks:

•If you want to remove an oven rack, grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out toward you until it stops.

•To remove the rack completely, lift the front of the rack up about six inches and continue to pull it out. Lifting the rack releases the safety notches. The safety notches reduce the chances of a rack coming out of the oven accidentally.

To Insert Your GlideRack Oven Rack:

Your oven comes with a Dacor GlideRack oven rack. You can pull the GlideRack oven rack out further than the standard racks and still support heavy pots and pans full of food. It is great for heavier foods and the optional Dacor baking stone.

1.Hold the GlideRack oven rack with the guides fully extended away from you (see the diagram below).

2.Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on the back of the guides with the oven rack supports as shown.

3.Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety clips over the front of the oven rack supports.

4.Push the rack all the way to the back.

5.Grasp the rack in the center of the front and pull. The rack should come forward while the guides remain in place.
