- DO NOTTOUCH SURFACE UNITS,AREAS NEARTHESE UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES
OF THE OVEN. Both surface units and oven heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or otherflammable materials touch these areas until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these areas are the cook top, surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent openings and surfaces near these openings, oven door and window.
Wear ProperAppareI--Loose-fitting orhanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or otherflammable materials contact hot surfaces.
Do Not Use Water or Flour on Grease Fires--Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry
chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
. Use Only Dry Potholders--Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
. Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers--Buildup of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.
. Remove the oven door from any unused range if it is to
be stored or discarded.
Do not use the oven or warmer drawer (if
equipped) for storage.
Do not store items of interest to children in
the cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a range. Children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.
Never Use Your Appliance for Warming or
Heating the Room.
. Storage in or on Appliance--Flammable materials
should not be stored in an oven, warmer drawer, near surface units or in the storage drawer. This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such ascookbooks, plasticware and towels, as well as flammable liquids. Do not store
explosives, such as aerosol cans, on or near the range.
. Do Not Leave Children Alone--Children should not be
left alone or unattended in the area where appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP
. Know which knob controls each surface heating unit.
Place a pan of food on the unit before turning it on, and turn the unit off before removing the pan.
. Use Proper Pan Size--This appliance is equipped with one
or more surface unitsof different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensilswill expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to element will also improve efficiency.
Page 4
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USINGYOUR COOKTOP (Cont'd)
. Utensil Handles Should Be Turned inward and Not
Extend OverAdjacent Surface Elements--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition offlammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
, Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High Heat
Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
. Do Not immerse or Soak Removable Heating Elements--
Heating elements should never be immersed inwater. Heating elements clean themselves during normal operation.
. Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, orother glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cook top use.
. When flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the
fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR RANGE
. Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of
grease that could catch fire. Pay particular attention to the area underneath each surface element. Do not allow grease
to accumulate.
, Kitchen cleaners and aerosols--Always follow the
manufacturer's recommended directions for use. Be aware that excess residue from cleaners and aerosols may
ignite causing damage and injury.
, Clean Ventilating Hoods Frequently--Grease should
not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
. Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer
(if equipped)--Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.
. Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located under the left rear surface element if your model is equipped with coil elements. The oven vent is located below the backguard for models equipped with ceramic-glass cook tops. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic
or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.
. Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in
desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot use extreme caution. Use potholders and
grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let potholders contact the hot heating elements in the oven. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
. Do not use the broiler pan without its insert (some
models). The broiler pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
. Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum foil.
Exposed fat and grease could ignite.
. Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to linethe oven
bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk
of electric shock, or fire.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish alistof substances
known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers
of potential exposure to such substances.
FOR CERAMIC-GLASS COOK TOP MODELS
. Do Not Cook on Broken Cook Top--If cook top should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cook top and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
. Clean Cook Top with Caution--if a wet sponge or cloth is
used towipe spills on a hotcooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

OVEN VENT
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located under the left side of the control panel (See Fig. 1). When the oven is on, warm air passes through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good
baking results. DO NOT BLOCK OVEN VENT.
Removing & Replacing Oven Racks
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift upfront of rack and slide out. To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on theoven walls. Tilt the front
Fig. 1
of the rack upward and slide the rack back into place.
Arranging Oven Racks & Roasting Shelf
ALWAYS ARRANGE OVEN RACKS WHEN THE OVEN IS COOL
(PRIOR TO OPERATING THE OVEN). Always use oven mitts when
using the oven. Recommended Rack Positions for Broiling, Baking & Roasting:
Food Rack Position Broiling hamburgers & steaks See Broil section
Broiling meats, chicken or fish See Broil section Cookies, cakes, pies, biscuits 3 or4

Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 1& 4 (See Fig. 7). For best results when using a single oven Flat Rack, place cookware on rack position 3 (See Fig. 8).
Air Circulation in the Oven
For best air circulation and baking results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air circulation
and be sure pans andcookware do not
touch each other, the oven door, sides or back of the oven cavity. The hot air
must be able to circulate around the pans and cookware in the oven for
even heat to reach around the food.
Fig. 7 Fig. 8
Page 7
Cookware Material Types
The cookware material determines how evenly & quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:
ALUMINUM =Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting). Ifaluminum pans slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately. COPPER =Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum).
STAINLESS STEEL =Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean & resists
staining.
Using proper cookware
CAST IRON =A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops. PORCELAIN=ENAMEL on METAL =Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating must besmooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.
GLASS =Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the
glass.
*CORRECT INCORRECT
The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface heating element (See Fig. 2). Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 1).
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in Figs. 1 & 2.

The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Be sure to match the pan size with the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop. Heat is transferred up through the surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only fiat-
bottomed cookware should be used.
The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use and their settings, are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

Element ON & Hot Surface Indicator Lights
Your range is equipped with two different types of radiant surface control indicator lights that will glow on your range--the Element ON indicator light and the Hot Surface indicator lights (Refer to Fig. 2).
About the Radiant Surface Elements
The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting, the
element will cycle ON and OFF. The heating element retains enough heat to provide auniform
and consistent heat during the off cycle.
For efficient cooking, turn OFF the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow
residual heat to complete the cooking process.
NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for
ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning and Before You Call checklist
sections of this Use & Care Manual.
Left 000
Rear O @
Fig. 2
NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON &OFF, even at the HI setting. This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic smoothtop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and will occur more often if the cookware is too small for the radiant
element or if the cookware bottom is not flat.
Single Radiant Surface Elements (all models)
To Operate a Single Radiant Element:
1. Place correctly sized cookware on radiant surface element.
2. Push in & turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (Refer to the Suggested Radiant Surface Element Settings Table & Fig. 3). Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. The surface control knobs do not have to be set exactly on a particular mark. Use the marks as a guide and adjust the control knob as needed. Each surface element provides a constant amount of heat at each setting. A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.
3. When cooking is complete turn the surface element OFF before removing the cookware.
Note: The Element ON indicator lights will glow when one or more of the surface elements are turned ON. A quick glance at these indicator lights when cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all control knobs are turned OFF. The Hot Surface indicator light will continue to glow AFTER the control knob is turned to the OFF position & will glow until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently.

DO NOT allow aluminum foil, or ANY material that can
melt to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop they will damage the ceramic cooktop.
Setting the Warming Zone (some models)
Fig. 1 Fig. 2
The purpose of the Warming Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not
recommended to heat cold food on the Warming Zone.
All food placed on the Warming Zone should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil to maintain quality. For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean from the cooktop surface.
Use only dishware, utensils & cookware recommended for oven and ceramic cooktop use on the Warming Zone.

How Speed Bake TM Cooking System works
The Speed Bake TM Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat uniformly and continuously around the oven (See Fig. 1). This improved heat distribution allows for fast, even cooking & browning results. Italso gives better
baking results when using 2 racks at the same time.
Heated air flows around the food from all sides, sealing in
juices & flavors. Meats cooked with Speed Bake TM
Cooking System are juicer. Poultry is crisp on the outside while staying tender & moist on the inside. Breads & pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked faster & more evenly with the Speed Bake TM Cooking System.
Speed Bake TM Cooking Instructions:
For Baking:
1. For optimum cooking results it isrecommended to preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies, biscuits & breads.
2. Reduce oven temperature 25° F from recipe's recommended oven temperature. Followthe remainder of the recipe's instructions using the minimum
recommended cook time.
3. When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in positions 2 & 5 for best results (See Fig. 2).
Note: Layer cakes will have better results using the normal Bakefeature.

Self-Cleaning (cont'd)
Preparing for a Self-Clean Cycle
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions: , DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven _rotective coatings in
or around any part of the Self-Cleaning oven.
, DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material
of the oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
, DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door
gasket. Doing so could cause damage.
, Remove the broiler pan & insert (some models), all
utensils & ANY aluminum foil. These items cannot
withstand high cleaning temperatures.
, Remove racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks"
under Before Setting Oven Controls. If they are not removed during the Self-Clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack position).
, Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity
before starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke orfire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
, Hand clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner
outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the
front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat
sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap & water.
, Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining
on the oven bottom should be removed.
using your hand from the front of the bake element. This will allow easier access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Remove the bottom oven rack before raising the element. Be
careful not to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.
Starting the Self-Clean Cycle or a Delayed Start Self-Clean Cycle
For satisfactory results, use a2 hour Self-Clean cycle for light soils or a 3 hour cycle for heavier soils. NOTE: The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventitlation fan or exhaust hood during the 1st Self- Clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors associated with the 1st Self-Clean cycle.

Note: Additional cooktop cleaning cream may be ordered by visiting the Frigidaire website at www.frigidaire.com Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply some of the cooktop cleaning cream supplied with your new range. Buff with
a non-abrasive cloth orno-scratch cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future
use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough or dirty bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal
or glass across the cooktop. Do not use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on bottom; replace with clean cookware before using. Do not
use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not
drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non=abrasive plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no
residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning products that have been specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktops.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the
ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.

Solutions tO COmmon ProblemS
Before
(shown
you call for service, review the following list. It may save you time & expense. The list includes common occurrences
in bold) that are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance. The possible corrections to these
problems are provided with the problem listed: Range is not level = (1) Poor installation. Place oven rack in
center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust leveling legs at base of range until the oven rack is level. (2) Be sure floor is level, strong & stable enough to adequately support range. (3) If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to
correct the situation. (4) Kitchen cabinet alignment may make range appear not level. Be sure cabinets are square & have sufficient room for range clearance.
Cannot move a_pliance easily. Appliance must be accessible for service =(1) Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly. Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible. (2) Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range can be lifted over carpet.
Surface element too hot or not hot enoulCLhh=Incorrect control setting. Be sure the correct control is ON for the element to be
used. Surface element does not heat =(1) Lightweight or warped
pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped
pans. Cookware materials and weight of the material affect heating. Heavy & medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily. (2) No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance Does Not Operate" in this checklist. (3) Incorrect control
setting. Make sure the correct control is ON for the surface element to be used.
Entire appliance does not operate =(1) The time of day is not set. The time of day must first be set in order to operate the
oven. See "To Set the Clock" inthe Setting Oven Controls section.(2) Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet. (3) Service wiring is not complete. Contact your authorized service agent. (4) Electrical power outage. Check house lights
to be sure. Call your local electric company for service. Oven does not operate =Be sure the oven controls are set
properly for the desired function. See Setting Oven Controls in this Use & Care Manual or read the instructions "Entire
appliance does not operate" in this checklist. Oven light does not work (some models) =Replace or tighten
bulb. See Changing Oven Light section inthis Use & Care Manual. Oven control beeps & displays any F code error (for example
Fll)_ =Electronic control has detected a fault condition. Press CLEAR/OFF to clear the display & stop beeping. Reprogram
oven. If fault recurs, record fault number. Press CLEAR/OFF & contact an authorized service agent.
Flames inside oven or smoking from oven vent =Excessive spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom.
Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting oven. If flames or excessive smoke are present see "Broiling" in the Setting
Oven Controls section.
Oven smokes excessively during broiling =(1) Control(s) not set properly. Follow Broil instructions under Setting Oven Controls. (2) Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position. (3) Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the
broil rack to provide proper clearance between the meat & the element. Preheat the broil element for searing. (4) Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean. (5) Insert on broiler pan wrong side up & grease not draining. Always place
grid on the broiler pan with ribs up & slots down to allow grease to drip into pan (some models). (6) Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.
Poor baking results =Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper oven rack position is used. Center food in the
oven & space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven. Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see Adjusting Your Oven Temperature in this Use & Care Manual.
Soil not completely removed after Self=Cleanin_cle = Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door
area outside oven seal. These areas are not in the Self- Cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean
these areas before the Self-Cleaning cycle is started. Burned- on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or
a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket. Self=Cleaningc_ycle does not work =(1) Oven control not set
properly. Follow instructions under Self=Cleaning. (2) Self- Cleaning cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under "Stopping
