BACKGUARD: The range comes with the standard island trim
package. The optional backguard comes in three sizes, 3", 9" or
24". It is attached by the installer if the wall behind your range
is combustible. It protects the wall from the effects of heat and
splattering grease. See the installation instructions..
SPILL TRAY: The spill tray catches any food that falls through
the cooktop grates.
GRATES: The porcelain coated cast iron grates support the
cooking utensils during cooking. They are removable to allow the
area below and around the burners to be cleaned easily. The size
and location of the grates depends on the model of the range.

Model ER36D with Backguard
BURNERS: The size and location of each burner depends on the
range model. The range generates a spark to light the burner
when you turn the knob to ON. Gaskets around the underside
of the burner bases prevent spilled liquids from leaking into the
range's internal parts.
BURNER CONTROL KNOBS: Use the knobs to turn on the
burners and adjust the flame size. The corresponding knob
illuminates when a burner is on.
TRIM RINGS: Located behind each knob. They prevent liquids
from getting into the range's internal parts.
Special Cooktop Features
Perma-Flame™: The Perma-Flame instant re-ignition feature
automatically re-lights a burner quickly if it goes out. With Perma-
Flame, your cooking experience is uninterrupted because the
flame is re-ignited at the same level as when it went out.
Smart Flame™: Smart Flame technology reduces the
temperature under the fingers of the porcelain-coated cast iron
grates. Smart-Flame extends grate life and protects the finish.
SimmerSear™: Dacor's exclusive precision burner control
system. It allows you to cook with a wide range of heat settings,
from simmer to sear.
