Control Panel
To avoid accidentally turning the oven on while
cleaning the control panel, activate the “Secure”
feature. Press and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE”
pad for approximately three seconds. This will
disable the control panel and allow cleaning
the controls without accidentally starting any
functions. “OFF” will appear in the display when
the control panel has been secured.
To re-activate the control panel, again push
and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad for three
seconds. “OFF” will disappear from the display.
IMPORTANT:
Clean the control panel with a solution of
mild detergent and warm water. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS.
THEY WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE
FINISH. Dry the control panel completely
with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Door Handle & Control Housing
IMPORTANT:
Clean the door handle and control
panel housing with a solution of mild
detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry
with a soft cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE
CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH.
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, door(s) bullnose and side
panels are covered with stainless steel. Clean
these surfaces with the provided Elco Stainless
Steel Cleaner. Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free
cloth.
IMPORTANT:
If commercially available stainless steel
cleaners are used, it is important to read the
labels for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a
corrosive substance. If these compounds are
present, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft,
lint-free cloth.
Always wipe stainless steel surfaces with the
grain.
Porcelain Surfaces
IMPORTANT:
The oven interior and inner door liners are
finished in porcelain enamel. Clean these
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. Always remove excess
grease and soil from the oven interior and
door prior to using the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild
detergent and warm water. Rinse, dry and
polish with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Brass, Chrome & Copper Surfaces
IMPORTANT:
If a commercially available polish is used,
it is important to read the label for chlorine
compounds. Chlorine is a corrosive
substance and is not recommended for
use with brass or chrome finishes. If these
compounds are present, rinse surface
thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free
cloth. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for
application of polish.
Broiler Pan
The oven broiler pan is finished in porcelain
enamel. Clean both components in a solution
of detergent and hot water. For heavy soil
conditions, use a scouring pad such as steel
wool with plenty of water. Rinse well after
cleaning.
Oven Racks
Oven racks are chrome-plated. For everyday
cleaning, apply a solution of detergent and hot
water. To clean heavy soil, use a scouring pad
such as steel wool with plenty of water, or use a
solution of 1 cup ammonia to 2 gallons of water.
Remove racks during Self-Cleaning. If racks
are left in the oven during self-cleaning, they
will permanently discolor.

Top Frame
Everyday cleaning of the cooktop surface is
best accomplished with a soft cloth or sponge
dampened in a solution of warm water and hand
dishwashing liquid.
Stubborn stains may be removed by applying
full-strength sprays such as Simple Green, Ajax
All-Purpose Cleaner, Formula 409, or Scotch
Guard.
IMPORTANT:
1. Never use the cooktop surface as a
cutting board.
2. Do not use abrasive cleaners or
applicators on the cooktop.
3. Do not try to remove heavy spills with
a sharp object such as a knife or metal
spatula. Sharp objects may scratch the
cooktop.
4. A small amount of baby oil may be
applied to stainless steel tops to restore
lustre.
Open Exhaust Cover
(On Selected Models Only)
Cleaning is best accomplished with a soft cloth
or sponge dampened in a solution of warm
water and hand dishwashing liquid
The convection fan filter is made of stainless
steel. Remove the filter regularly for cleaning,
as a clogged filter will reduce the effectiveness
of convection cooking modes. Soak the filter
in hot soapy water according to the package
directions. Dry the filter completely before
re-installing. Remove the filter during Self-
Cleaning. If the filter is left in the oven during
Self-Cleaning it will permanently discolor.
Re-install the filter before cooking in the
oven again. Failure to do so will expose the
convection fan blade that rotates at high
speed during convection modes.
3. Set the grates into the locating dimples
gently. Do not drop the grates into place.
4. Use caution when cooking to avoid spills
as much as possible. Porcelain is acid-
resistant but not acid-proof, so some foods
can cause permanent damage if allowed to
remain on porcelain surfaces.
Daily cleaning of the grates and burner caps is
best accomplished with a soft cloth or sponge
dampened in a solution of warm water and hand
dishwashing liquid. Grates and burner caps
should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Stubborn stains may be removed by applying
full-strength sprays such as Simple Green, Ajax
All-Purpose Cleaner, Formula 409, or Scotch
Guard. Metal polishing compounds such as
Luneta or Flitz may also be used. (If you are
unable to locate these cleaning compounds,
please phone the DACOR Customer Service
Department for a referral.)
Mildly abrasive cleaners or applicators, such
as S.O.S. Pads, soap-filled steel wool pads,
Soft Scrub, or Bon-Ami may be used with
extreme care on occasion to remove the most
serious stains. Exercise caution – extensive
use of abrasives will eventually damage the
porcelain enamel surface.
