Knobs and Trim Rings
WARNING
• Do not operate the cooktop without the knobs and spill
protector rings in place.
• Do not soak the knobs and spill protector rings in water
or place them in the dishwasher.
• Do not expose plastic knobs to direct flame, hot
utensils or other sources of heat.
Wash the knobs regularly with a solution of warm
soapy water. Dacor recommends hand dishwashing
liquid. To clean:
1. Disconnect power and turn the knobs to the OFF
position.
2. Grasp each knob and pull straight back, off of
the valve shaft.
3. Clean the outside edges of the trim rings while
the knobs are removed. Wipe them with a soft
damp rag.
4. To replace the knobs,
align the “D-shaped”
opening on the back
of the knob with the
end of the valve shaft.
Carefully push the
knob on until it stops.
The largest knob with
numbers on it is the
oven knob and goes
on the center valve
stem. The SimmerSear
burner knob has the high flame icon and the
simmer (low) icon spaced further apart than the
other three burner knobs. Place it on the valve
stem that is second from the left.
5. Reconnect the power cord.
Door Glass
Clean all glass surfaces with a solution of mild
detergent and hot water. Use a mild glass cleaner to
remove fingerprints or smears. Dry completely with
a soft, lint-free cloth.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
The control panel, the outside surface of the oven
door, the area around the outside of the cook-
top and the side panels are covered with stainless
steel. Clean these surfaces with the provided Dacor
Stainless Steel Cleaner. Rinse and dry with a soft,
lint-free cloth. Always wipe stainless steel surfaces
with the grain. A small amount of baby oil may be
applied to stainless steel tops to restore lustre.
Care and Cleaning
Chrome Surfaces
Clean chrome surfaces the same way as stainless
steel surfaces (see column one).
Porcelain Surfaces
The oven interior, the inner side of the oven door
and the spill tray are finished in porcelain enamel.
Clean porcelain surfaces with a solution of mild
detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft
cloth. Do not use abrasives or commercial oven
cleaners.
Oven Racks
The GlideRack oven racks are chrome-plated. For
everyday cleaning, apply a solution of detergent and
hot water. To clean heavy soil, use the rough side
of a sponge or a scouring pad with plenty of water,
or use a solution of 1 cup ammonia to 2 gallons of
water.
Broil Burner
WARNING
To prevent damage to the broil burner and broil burner
igniter, do not spray it with any type of cleaner or
attempt to scrub them in any manner. These parts
are self-cleaning and do not require any type of
maintenance.
To burn off any grime build-up on the broil burner
and igniter, close the oven door and turn the oven
control knob to the BROIL position for about ten
minutes. After ten minutes turn the oven off.
Door Gasket (Seal)
Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a solution
of water and mild soap. Do not scrub it or it will
become damaged.

Convection Filter
WARNING
For your safety and proper oven performance, re-install
the filter before using the oven to cook. If you don’t,
the spinning fan blades at the back of the oven will be
exposed.
The convection filter is located in the back of each
oven chamber. Clean the filter regularly. If you allow
it to become clogged, the oven’s convection cooking
modes will not work properly.
