Operating Your Oven
Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Your oven is equipped with a feature that allows you to calibrate the temperature inside the oven to match the display value without the help of a service technician. Due to various conditions, the actual temperature inside may vary somewhat from the displayed temperature. The set- ting may also vary from mode to mode.
warning
Do not adjust the probe or self clean offset temperatures. The offset for the probe and self clean offsets must remain at 0 for proper and/or safe operation.
To change the offset temperature:
1.Place an oven thermometer inside the oven.
2.Check the temperature variance by running the oven for one hour in each mode at 350°F (except broil modes). In broil the normal operating temperature is 555°F. Take note of the temperature variance in each mode.
3.With the oven off, press and hold the 0 and # keys on the number keypad at the same time. After about three seconds “PASS” will appear on the display.
4.Immediately enter 6428 on the number keypad, then START. “SLCt” (select) will appear on the display.
5.Press the key for cooking mode you want to change the offset for (CONV BAKE, CONV BROIL, PURE CONV, CONV ROAST, BAKE or BROIL).
6.Enter an offset temperature value from 1 to 35°F (1 to 18 for ovens set to Celsius). Press the # key after entering the numeric value if you want the offset to be a negative
7.Press START to save the setting.
8.Repeat steps 5 and 6 above for any other cooking modes you need to offset.
9.Press CANCEL to exit offset mode.
Cooking Tips
Food Placement
•Typically, when baking on two racks, use rack posi- tions #2 and #4 or #1 and #3. When baking on three racks, use rack positions #1, #3 and #5.
•Turn pans on the racks so that the long sides run left to right, as you face them.
•When you are cooking a food item that is very heavy, use the Dacor GlideRack oven rack. You can pull it out further than a conventional rack, making it easier to check the food, stir, or add ingredients.
•Heavier roasting pans and dishes will cook better on rack position #1.
•When using a baking stone, use rack position #1 for best results.
•If you put a baking stone on the GlideRack oven rack, instead of one of the standard oven racks, you can pull the stone out of the oven further, making pizza easier to remove.
