13Operating the OvenTo Remove the Standard Oven Racks:If you want to remove an oven rack, grasp it with both hands•and pull gently straight out toward you until it stops.To remove the rack completely, lift the front of the rack up•about six inches and continue to pull it out. Lifting the rackreleases the safety notches. The safety notches reduce thechances of a rack coming out of the oven accidentally.To Insert Your GlideRack Oven Rack:Your oven comes with a Dacor GlideRack oven rack. You canpull the GlideRack oven rack out further than the standard racksand still support heavy pots and pans full of food. It is great forheavier foods and the optional Dacor baking stone.Hold the GlideRack oven rack with the guides fully extended1.away from you (see the diagram below).Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on the back of2.the guides with the oven rack supports as shown.Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety clips over the3.front of the oven rack supports.Push the rack all the way to the back.4.Grasp the rack in the center of the front and pull. The rack5.should come forward while the guides remain in place.To Remove Your GlideRack Oven Rack:Grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out toward youuntil it stops. To remove the rack completely, lift the front upabout six inches and continue to pull it out. Lifting it releases thesafety clips. The safety clips reduce the chance of the rack comingout of the oven accidentally.Before You Cook...When you use your oven to bake or roast, it preheats auto-•matically. The preheat cycle rapidly brings the oven cham-ber up to the proper cooking temperature. It takes severalminutes to preheat the oven. Preheat time depends on thetemperature settings. The time may be longer depending onthe type of electrical supply in your community. There is nopreheat cycle for any of the broil modes.After you pull food out of the oven, it will continue to cook.•This process is called “carry-over”. The larger the portion offood, the longer it will cook. It is best to let the meat restafter it comes out of the oven for 10 to 15 minutes beforecarving. Doing so will allow the meat to retain its juices andmake it easier to carve.Dacor recommends turning the oven on for one hour at 500°F•to burn off any residual oils used during the manufacturingprocess. Any of these oils left on the inner parts can cause anundesirable smell the first few times the oven is used.Oven RacksYou may use either rack type on any level.WARNINGTo reduce the chance of burns, position the oven racks whenthe oven is cool. If you must reposition a rack when the oven ishot, use potholders.To Insert the Standard Oven Racks:Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into the1.oven first.Attach both sides of the rack to the rack supports in the oven2.as shown in the diagram below.Begin to slide the rack in, and then, lift up so that the safety3.notches clear the ends of the rack supports.Push the rack all the way in with both hands.4.Front of rackBack of rackRack supportSafety notchSlide rack supportsbetween back safety clipsLift front safety clipsover rack supportsFront of rackGuidesRack support
