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 PERTOLIUM OR CHLORINE BASED
CLEANERS, ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR
SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL PERMANENTLY
DAMAGE THE FINISH. Dry the control panel
completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.
IMPORTANT:
1. Never use the glass cooktop surface as
a cutting board.
2. Do not use abrasive cleaners or
applicators on the glass 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
glass cooktop.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
Clean all stainless steel 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.
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.
Convection Fan Filter
WARNING:
Remove the filter only when it is cool.
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.
Step 1: Orient the filter so that the two
mounting tabs are towards the rear, open
end down.
Removing and Installing the Convection Fan Filter
Step 1
IMPORTANT:
The grates, burner caps, and spill-over
areas on the cooktop, unlike other porcelain
enamel appliances in your home, are
exposed to extremely high temperatures
in a matter of seconds. In addition to
this extreme thermal shock, the grates
are subjected to mechanical shock when
utensils are placed on or slid across them.
Finally, spillovers introduce foods with high
acidity to all of the porcelain components.
Due to these severe operating conditions,
all porcelain enamel components on the
cooktop will undergo an inevitable change
in appearance with use. Meticulous care
and cleaning will slow but not eliminate this
natural and expected aging process.
Treating the porcelain components with care will
slow the natural deterioration that takes place
with cooktop use. Please follow these guidelines
to keep the porcelain parts looking their best:
1. Do not use utensils having rough bottoms,
as this can result in permanent damage
to the top surfaces of the porcelainized
grates.
2. Do not drop utensils onto the grates or
drag heavy pots across the tops of the
grates.
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.
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.

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 PERTOLIUM OR
CHLORINE BASED CLEANERS, ABRASIVE
CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH.
Glass Surfaces
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.
