Don't know specifically about that model but there certainly are many models 
these days where the depth of cut can be fixed. I don't believe though that 
the arbor is designed to accept a dado cutting set but you could cut each 
side then plow out the middle either by repeated passes of the saw shifting 
the board slightly between passes or by making a few passes and cleaning out 
the middle with a chisel or router plane.

When I need only one dado I commonly cut it this way with my table saw. The 
main limitation though is the width of cut, probably not more than 12 inches 
on a miter saw.
