*The Dacor induction power management feature regu-
lates the amount of power one side (left or right) can
draw at the same time. If you set both controls on the
same side to the HIGH power setting, power to both
elements will be reduced slightly and cooking times will
be slightly longer. When cooking on two elements at the
HIGH setting, Dacor recommends using one element on
the left side and one on the right.

Control Layout
• Your range is equipped with an induction type cook-
top. Induction cooking is totally different from tradi-
tional types of cooking. A magnetic induction element
below the cooking surface heats utensils (magnetic
only) directly. Induction cooking is much more effi-
cient because less energy is lost heating the cooktop
itself. Also, food that spills on the cooktop does not
burn since the cooktop is much cooler.
• The cooktop has four circular cooking zones. Below
each cooking zone is the magnetic induction cooking
element. Each cooking zone has its own set of con-
trols. The control keys are activated by touching them
with your fingertip. Pressing hard is not necessary
because the keys are not pressure sensitive. NOTE:
Spills or cleaning solutions on the keys can cause
unwanted operation. Dry the control area with a clean
cloth and reset the control to correct.
• All of the induction elements under the cooking zones
feature temperature limiters to ensure a safe operat-
ing temperature for the glass ceramic top. The ele-
ments automatically cycle on and off. At higher power
settings, the induction element will stay on for longer
periods of time.
