Before using your range, become familiar 

with the features and control panel layout.

in the Rsd and Rse ranges, below the 

oven mode touch pads, there are three 

touch pads labeled “caNcel•secuRe,” 

“ligHt” and “cOOk tiMe”. the 

“caNcel•secuRe” touch pad enables 

the user to cancel the selection of an oven 

mode or delay timed program, or disable 

the control panel by pressing and holding 

the pad for approximately three (3) 

seconds. Once the control panel is in the 

“secuRe” mode, “OFF” will be displayed 

on the clock. the “ligHt” touch pad turns 

the interior oven light “on” and “off.” the 

“ligHt” touch pad will remain functional if 

the control panel has been disabled. the 

“cOOk tiMe” touch pad is used to select 

the length of time for a cooking process in delay timed cooking 

mode.

clock functions are selected by pressing the touch pads located 

below the clock display and oven mode touch pads. Oven 

functions are chosen by pressing the touch pad for the desired 

mode. Once a clock or oven function has been chosen, a 

description of the selection will flash in the clock display area.

in the MRes ranges, the clock fuctions, the “caNcel•secuRe”, 

the “ligHt”, and the “cOOktiMe” touch pads are located to the 

left of the clock display, while the cooking functions touch pads 

are to the right of it, but they all work just the same.

ImPortant:

after choosing a clock function or oven mode, you have six seconds 

to perform the next programming step. If the next step is not 

completed within six (6) seconds, the program selection displayed 

on the clock will disappear. should this occur, just repeat the initial 

function selection

Your new oven has the best cooking system available today, “Pure 

convection™”. Pure convection™ is a total system approach to 

cooking. the heat source is a third element outside the cooking 

cell behind a “baffle.” Not only does the baffle separate the food 

from the heat source, it channels the air from the “convection Fan” 

evenly into the cell improving hot or cool spots in the oven. this 

system is what allows multi-rack cooking while achieving even 

results from one rack to another.

the other component in Pure convection™ is the “Filter.” the filter 

eliminates the transference of flavors when cooking entire meals 

and also keeps the oven cleaner.

Follow these two steps to set the correct time of day:

1.  Press the “clOck” touch pad. the time of day will flash, “aM” or 

“PM” will be displayed, and “tiMe” will flash in the display.

.  Press the touch pad “+” or “–” until the correct time of day is 

displayed and release.

all oven modes are described below:

1.  staNdaRd Bake – in standard Bake mode, the bottom heat 

element provides conventional baking heat. temperatures may 

be set from 135˚ to 555˚F in 5˚F increments. Use Standard Bake 

for single rack baking and roasting.

.  staNdaRd BROil – the high wattage, top heating element 

supplies the heat in Broil mode. the broil temperature is 

adjustable from 135˚F, to the “HI” setting (equivalent to 555˚F) for 

greater cooking flexibility. 

Broiling is performed with the door 

closed.

3.  cONvectiON BROil (Rse30/Rsd30 Only) – the high 

wattage, top heating element supplies the heat in Broil mode in 

combination with the convection fan for better heat distribution. 

The broil temperature is adjustable from 135˚F to the “HI” setting 

(equivalent to 555˚F) for greater cooking flexibility. 

Broiling is 

performed with the door closed.

4.  PuRe cONvectiON™ – in Pure convection™ mode a third 

heating element, encircling the convection fan located in the rear 

of the oven chamber, acts as the heat source. the convection 

fan draws air from the oven chamber, then forces it across the 

hot convection heating element. the heated air is directed back 

into the oven chamber through the convection baffle. the baffle 

distributes the heated air evenly to ensure uniform results. 

Temperatures may be set from 135˚ to 555˚F in 5˚F increments. 

use this mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking, 

roasting, and preparation of complete meals.

5.  cONvectiON Bake – in this combination convection-

radiant mode, the lower element provides the heat. as in Pure 

convection™ mode, the convection fan and baffle combine 

to circulate heated air evenly throughout the oven chamber. 

Temperatures may be set from 135˚F to 555˚F in 5˚F increments. 

use this mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking and 

roasting.

6.  teMPeRatuRe PROBe (MRes Only) – this oven function 

will allow you to plug a dacor

®

 provided temperature Probe in 

the oven receptacle and measure temperatures in your food via 

the oven control and display. the temperature Probe can be 

used in combination with standard Bake, Pure convection™, 

or convection Bake modes. the temperature Probe takes the 

guesswork out of roasting by cooking food to the exact internal 

temperature that you desire. the temperature range that the 

temperature Probe will read is from 100°F to 00°F.

7.  selF-cleaN – in the pyrolytic self-clean mode, the oven 

reaches extreme high temperatures, thereby burning off oven 

soil automatically.  the self-clean time is adjustable up to four 

hours so that varying degrees of oven soil can be successfully 

removed. also, the self-clean cycle can be delayed to start at a 

later time if desired.
