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 · CONTINUE soon afterward. If you wait too long 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 factory. 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 display. If you have set the clock to 24 hour time, the keypad will allow you to enter military time when setting the clock.

Setting the Temperature Scale

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

To change the temperature scale:

1.Press and hold the BROIL key.

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.

Turning the Control Panel “Beep” Off/On

The control panel beeps any time you press any of the keys or when various error conditions exist. It also beeps when a timer is done counting down (page 13) or whenever the oven performs certain preset functions, for example, pre-heat is complete. The tone may be silenced so that it does not function under the above conditions.

To turn the control panel “beep” off (or on):

1.Press and hold the START TIME key for six seconds, until “beep” appears on the display.

2.Press the # key repeatedly to switch between “On” and “Off”.

3.Press CANCEL · SECURE when the desired mode appears on the display.

4.To change the control panel back to the previous mode, repeat the above steps.

Lock-Out Feature

If you want to disable the keys on the control panel when the oven is not in use:

Push and hold the CANCEL · SECURE key for about four seconds. The control panel keys will stop work- ing and “OFF” will appear on the display. Only the CANCEL · SECURE and the oven light keys remain functional.

To reactivate the control panel, press and hold the CANCEL · SECURE key for four seconds.

Before Using the Oven...

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 natural juices and make it easier to carve.
