Replacing the Light Bulbs

warning

To prevent electrical shock and/or personal injury, make certain that the oven and light bulbs are cool and that power to the oven has been turned off at the circuit breaker panel or fuse box before replacing the light bulbs.

Always make sure the lens covers are in place when using the oven. The lens covers protect the light bulbs from breakage caused by high oven temperatures or mechanical shock.

Replacing the lens cover without lining up the cutout with the light socket will damage the light fixture.

Do not use a screwdriver to remove the lens.

Light bulb replacement is considered to be a homeowner maintenance operation. If the lights do not work, before replacing them, please consult the Problem Solution Guide on page 41.

important

Do not touch the replacement halogen light bulbs with your fingers. Halogen bulbs are sensitive to the oils from your hand. The oils from your hand will stick to the bulb and cause it to burn out faster than normal.

To replace the light bulbs...

1.Replace the light bulb only with Dacor part number 100429. See page 35 for ordering information.

2.Turn off power to the oven at the circuit breaker panel or fuse box.

3.Hold your hand under the lens for support and gently pry it loose using a spatula or table knife. Pull the lens cover straight out.

When you need to remove large food particles from the baking stone, use warm water and a scrub brush. If there is a lot of oil build-up, it may smoke and create odors. If you need to remove the oily build up, use a scouring pad or brush to remove it. You may also use a paste of baking soda and water to scrub off small stains.

Optional Cookie Sheets

Clean the optional aluminum cookie sheets with a solution of detergent and warm water. Since aluminum can scratch, you need to use the soft side of a sponge. A way for you to keep cookie sheets cleaner is to use parchment paper over the cooking surface during baking. The parchment paper will also prevent food from sticking.

4.Grasp the old bulb and pull it straight out of the socket.

5.Using a glove, insert the new bulb into the socket.

6.As you reinstall the lens cover, line up the cutout on the inside rim with the light socket. Gently press it into its original position.
