General Cleaning - Dacor Epicure ER36D Use & Care Manual

After the Self Clean Cycle is Complete
• The door latch will release when the inside has cooled down.
The words "CLEAN", "LOCK" and "ON" will disappear from
the display. Exercise caution because the oven will still be hot
(about 400°F) at the time the door lock is released.
• Reinstall the convection filter and oven racks before using
your oven.
• You may notice a powder ash residue in the bottom of the
oven after self cleaning. This is normal. Use a damp cloth or
sponge to wipe up the residue after the oven cools down.
Self Cleaning Tips
• If any soil remains in the oven after the self clean cycle is
done, you may repeat the cycle if you want.
• Self clean the oven regularly to prevent excessive soil build-
up. Doing so will make the self clean cycle work better and
reduce smoke and odors.
Setting the Oven To Self Clean At a Later
Time
1. Prepare the oven for self cleaning as instructed on page 24.
Observe all safety precautions and remove all items listed
from inside the oven. Clean the door gasket and around the
door as instructed.
2. Close the oven door.
3. Press the START TIME key.
4. Enter the desired start time. For example, press 1-2-3-0 for
12:30. You may enter a time up to 11 hours and 59 minutes
ahead of the present time.
5. Press START.

General Cleaning

Use only a sponge, soft cloth, fibrous or plastic brush, or nylon
pad for cleaning the surfaces of your range. Avoid the use of
abrasive cleaners such as steel wool.
Knobs and Trim Rings
• Do not soak the knobs in water or put them in the
dishwasher.
• Do not remove the trim rings from the range. Clean only the
outside edges of the trim rings. If you get moisture inside
the trim rings, damage to the knob lights or other parts of
the range can occur.
• Installing the range knobs in the wrong position may result
in damage to the griddle included with the range. The knobs
for the center burners are marked with the maximum griddle
settings.
• To prevent damage, do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaners or applicators.

water. Dacor recommends hand dishwashing liquid.
• Turn the knobs to the off position to remove them for clean-
ing or replacement.

back of the knob with the end of the valve shaft. Carefully
push the knob on until it stops. Make sure you put the two
knobs with the words "MAX GRIDDLE" on the center burner
valve stems (closest to the control panel).
