Operating Your Oven
Cooking Tips
Food Placement
for best results when baking on two racks, use rack
•
positions #2 and #4 or #1 and #3 with the oven set
to pure convection or convection bake mode. for best
results when baking on three racks, use rack positions
#1, #3 and #5 with the oven set to pure convection
mode.
turn pans on the racks so that the long sides run left
•
to right as you face them.
when you are cooking a food item that is very heavy,
•
Dacor recommends the optional gliderack oven
rack. you can pull it out further than a standard rack,
making it easier to check the food, stir or add ingredi-
ents.
heavier roasting pans and dishes will cook better on
•
rack position #1.
when using a baking stone, use rack position #1 for
•
best results. if you put a baking stone on the optional
gliderack oven rack, instead of one of the standard
oven racks, you can pull the stone out of the oven
further, making pizza easier to remove.
Adjusting the Oven Temperature
your oven is equipped with a feature that allows you to
calibrate the temperature inside the oven to match the
display value without the help of a service technician. Due
to various conditions, the actual temperature inside may
vary somewhat from the displayed temperature. the set-
ting may also vary from mode to mode.

the offset for the probe and self clean offsets must remain
at 0 for proper and/or safe operation.
