Cleaning (Continued)

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 the knobs or spill protector rings 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:

Disconnect power and turn the knobs to the off 

1. 

position to remove them for cleaning or replace-

ment.
Grasp each knob and pull straight back, off of 

2. 

the valve shaft.
Clean the outside edges of the trim rings while 

3. 

the knobs are removed. Wipe them with a soft 

damp rag.
To replace the knobs, 

4. 

align the “D-shaped” 

opening on the 

back of the knob 

with the end of the 

valve shaft. Care-

fully 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 dual burner knob has the two flame 

icons spaced further apart than the other three. 

Place it on the valve stem that is second from 

the left.
Reconnect the power cord.

5. 

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

Brass, Chrome and Copper Surfaces

Clean brass, chrome and copper 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. You may remove the rack supports to 

clean the surfaces behind them more easily.

With the oven cool, pull straight out on the front 

1. 

of the rack support, toward the center. The 

mounting pins on the front of the rack should 

disengage from the oven.
While holding the rack support at a 45˚ angle to 

2. 

the side of the oven, gently pull forward to dis-

engage the rear mounting pins from the oven.

One set of mounting pins on each rack support 

1. 

are straight, the other set is at an angle. The 

angular pins go toward the back of the oven. 

Insert them in the rear mounting holes while 

holding the rack support at a 45˚ angle to the 

side of the oven. To prevent damage, do not 

insert the rack support with the angular pins 

forward. 
Rotate the front of the rack towards the wall of 

2. 

the oven. Slide the front rack pins into the front 

mounting holes.

Oven Racks and Rack Supports

See the facing page for instructions on removing 

• 

the rack supports.
The oven racks and rack supports 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.
