Operating the Oven

Understanding the Various Oven 

Cooking Modes

The three basic styles of cooking in an oven:

• 

BAKING - The gentle cooking of dry goods such as 

cookies, cakes, soufflés, etc.

• 

ROASTING - The cooking of meats or vegetables 

over a period of time.

• 

BROILING - Cooking with an intense heat for a short 

amount of time.

Bake

Uses only a heat source from below the food. This mode 

is the stand-by, non-convection mode. All baked items will 

turn out nicely in this mode.

baking tips

• 

For best results, use a single rack in the lowest posi-

tion when using bake mode. For cooking on multiple 

racks, Dacor recommends using one of the convection 

modes. See the following pages.

• 

Follow your recipe’s original cooking time and tem-

perature.

• 

Do not open the oven door frequently during baking. 

Look through the oven door window to check the 

progress of baking whenever possible.

• 

Use the timers to determine baking time.

• 

Wait until the shortest recommended baking time 

before checking the food. For most baked goods, a 

wooden toothpick placed in the center should come 

clean when the food is done.

12 Hour Timer Feature

The oven’s 12 hour timer feature automatically turns it 

off after 12 hours of continuous use. The 12 hour timer 

resets if you change the cooking temperature or cooking 

mode. This feature does not apply to the cooktop.
The range ships from the factory with this feature 

enabled.

To disable or enable the 12 hour timer feature:

• 

With the oven off, push and hold the TIMER 1 key for 

about ten seconds, until the control panel beeps.  

ON” will appear on the display if the 12 hour timer is 

enabled.

• 

Push the SELF CLEAN key to disable (or enable) the 

12 hour timer.

• 

Push START to save the changes and return to the 

clock display.
