Cleaning (cont.)

Knobs and Trim Rings

•  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

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

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.
