IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING -
To reduce the risk of burns, electric shock, fire, injury to persons or exposure to
excessive microwave energy:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read all instructions before using the
appliance.
2. Read and follow the specific
“PRECAUTIONS
TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO
EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY”
on inside front cover.
3. This appliance must be grounded. Connect only to
properly grounded outlet. See “GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS” on page 4.
4. Install or locate this appliance only in ac-
cordance with the provided installation
instructions.
5. Some products such as whole eggs and
sealed containers -- for example, closed
glass jars -- are able to explode and should
not be heated in this oven.
6. Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this manual. Do not use
corrosive chemicals or vapors in this
appliance. This type of oven is specifically
designed to heat, cook or dry food. It is not
designed for industrial or laboratory use.
7. As with any appliance, close supervision is
necessary when used by children.
8. Do not operate this appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug, if it is not working
properly or if it has been damaged or dropped.
9. This appliance should be serviced only by
qualified service personnel. Contact nearest
Dacor Authorized Servicer for examination,
repair or adjustment.
10. Do not cover or block any openings on the
appliance.
11. Do not store or use this appliance outdoors.
Do not use this product near water--for
example, near a kitchen sink, in a wet
basement, near a swimming pool or similar
locations.
12. Do not immerse cord or plug in water.
13. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
14. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or
counter.
15. See door surface cleaning instructions on
page 25.
16. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
a. Do not overcook food. Carefully attend
appliance when paper, plastic or other
combustible materials are placed inside
the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or
plastic bags before placing bag in oven.
c. If materials inside the oven ignite, keep oven
door closed, turn oven off and disconnect
the power cord or shut off power at the fuse
or circuit breaker panel.
d. Do not use the cavity for storage purposes.
Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the cavity when not in use.
17. Liquids, such as water, coffee or tea are able to be
overheated beyond the boiling point without appearing
to be boiling. Visible bubbling or boiling when the
container is removed from the microwave oven is not
always present. THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY
HOT LIQUIDS SUDDENLY BOILING OVER WHEN
A SPOON OR OTHER UTENSIL IS INSERTED INTO
THE LIQUID. To reduce the risk of injury to persons:
a. Do not overheat the liquid.
b. Stir the liquid both before and halfway
through heating it.
c. Do not use straight-sided containers
with narrow necks. Use a wide-mouthed
container.
d. After heating, allow the container to stand
in the microwave oven at least for 20
seconds before removing the container.
e. Use extreme care when inserting a
spoon or other utensil into the container.
18. If the oven light fails, consult a DACOR
AUTHORIZED SERVICER.
19. Do not operate any heating or cooking
appliance beneath this appliance.
20. Do not mount unit over or near any portion
of a heating or cooking appliance.

22. Do not store anything directly on top of the appliance
surface when the appliance is in operation.
23. DCM24 is suitable for built-in installation over
