key to
turn off the oven. The cooling fan will continue
to run for 30 to 45 minutes depending upon the

complimentary Dacor cookbook.
Delay Timed Cooking
WARNING
Avoid using foods that will spoil while waiting for the
•
cooking cycle to begin. Typical foods to avoid include
those containing eggs and dairy products, cream soups
and cooked or uncooked meats, poultry and fish.
If cooking will not begin immediately, place only very
•
cold or frozen food into the oven. Most unfrozen foods
should never stand in the oven for more than two hours
before cooking begins.
Do not allow foods to remain in the oven more than
•
one hour after completion of the cooking cycle. When
the temperature drops below 140˚F, bacteria can
develop.
Delay timed cooking allows you to start and finish
a cooking cycle automatically. It is especially useful
for preparing meals in advance or cooking while you
are at work or play. Delay timed cooking can only be
used with standard bake (ERD models only), con-
vection bake or Pure Convection modes. lt will not
function in broil mode.

Delay Timed Cooking Tips
Do not use foods containing baking powder or
•
yeast in delay timed cooking. These foods will
not rise properly.
Remember that
•
“COOK TIME”
refers to the
length of the cooking cycle. It does not refer to
the start time.
The time required to pre-heat the oven must
•
be included in the cook time
.
Increase the cook
time about 8 to 12 minutes, depending upon the
temperature setting, to allow for pre-heat time.
The broiler does not pre-heat in delay timed
•
mode, so you will not pre-maturely brown foods.
NOTE:
The gas broilers (ERD models only) are not
activated for pre-heat in the delay-time cooking
mode, so pre-heat times are increased, but dishes
will not pre-maturely brown.
