Do not use the oven or warmer drawer (if

equipped) for storage.

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, plasticand cloth items, such as cookbooks, 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
part of the appliance.

• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS, AREAS NEAR THESE
UNITS, HEATING ELEMENTS ORINTERIORSURFACES
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 Proper Apparel--Loose-fitting or hanging garments
should never be worn while using the appliance. Do not
let clothing or otherflammable materials contact hotsurfaces.

• 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 ofa potholder.

• Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers - Buildup of
pressure may cause container to burst and result in
injury.

clock and oven function.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USINGYOUR
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 units of different sizes. Select utensils having flat

bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized utensils will 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.

• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over
Adjacent Surface Elements--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition

of flammable 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 in water. Heating
elements clean themselves during normal operation.

• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other 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 USINGYOUR
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. 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 line the 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.

SELF CLEANING OVENS

• Clean in the self-cleaning cycle only the parts listed in this Use & Care Manual. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the broiler
pan and any utensils or foods from the oven.

• Do Not Use Oven Cleaners--No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around
any part of the oven.

• Do Not Clean Door Gasket--The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

•The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another
well-ventilated room.

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.

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 to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn.
Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Place Roasting Shelf with care in rack position 7 (See Fig. 2). Be sure the Roasting Shelf is level and the front end of the
shelf rests over the front ends of the oven rack glides on both sides of the oven interior (See Figs. 3 & 4)

Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks

For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 3 & 6 (See Fig. 7). For best results

when using a single oven Flat Rack, place cookware on rack position 4 (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 besure pans and cookware 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

About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

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 flat-

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.

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.

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 (See illustration at left).

at this indicator light after cooking is an easy check to be sure ALL surface controls are
turned OFF. The Hot Surface indicator light located on the control panel will glow when

any surface cooking area heats up and will REMAIN ON until the glass cooktop has
cooled to aMODERATE level.

NOTE: Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle ON and 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.

Cookware Material Types

The cookware material determines how evenly and 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 itto darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists

staining & pitting), tfaluminum 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 and resists

staining.

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 be smooth to avoid
scratching ceramic cooktops.

GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for
ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the

glass.

Using proper cookware

*CORRECT

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. 1). Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across
the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 2).

_' Be sure to follow the

recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in
Figs. 1 & 2. For more information

about the ceramic cooktop see
"Cooktop Cleaning &

Maintenance" in the General
Care & Cleaning section.

• Flat bottom and straight
sides.

• Tight fitting lids.

• Weight of handle does not

tilt pan. Pan is well

balanced.

• Pan sizes match the
amount of food to be

prepared and the size of

the surface element.

• Made of a material that
conducts heat well.

• Easy to clean.

• Always match pot diameter

Single Radiant Surface Elements (all models)

To Operate a Single Radiant Element:

1. Place correctly sized cookware on radiant surface element.

2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (Refer to
the Suggested Radiant Surface Element Settings Table, Figs. 3 & 4). Start most cooking
operations ona 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 ateach 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.

Setting the Warming Zone (some models)

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.

Use only dishware, utensils and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the Warming Zone.

Speed Bake TM Cooking System

Benefits of Speed Bake TM Cooking

Speed Bake

ff

System:

--Foods cook up to 25 to 30% faster,
saving time and energy.

--Multiple rack baking.

--No special pans or bakeware needed.

How the Speed Bake TM Cooking System works (some
models)

Speed Bake TM Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat

uniformly and continuously around the oven. This improved heat distribution

allows for fast, even cooking and browning results, ttalso gives better baking

results when using two racks at the same time (See Fig. 1).

Heated airflows around the food from all sides, sealing injuices and flavors.
Meats cooked with Speed Bake TM Cooking System are juicer. Poultry is

crisp on the outside while staying tender and moist on the inside. Breads and

pastry brown more evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be

cooked faster and more evenly with Speed Bake TM Cooking System.

General Cooking Instructions:

For Baking:

1.

For optimum cooking results it isrecommended to preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies, biscuits and breads.

2.

Reduce oven temperature 25° F from recipe's recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder of the recipe's
instructions using the minimum recommended cook time.

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 Bake feature.

For Roasting:

1. Preheating is not necessary when roasting foods with Speed Bake TM Cooking System.

2. Since Speed Bake cooks food faster, reduce the cook time by 25% from the recommended cook time of your recipe.
Increase the time until the desired aloneness is obtained.

Note: Cook time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food being cooked.

To Set Speed Bake TM Cooking System:

1. Prog ram the oven as you normally would to bake. Speed Bake may be used with Bake,
Timed Bake and Delayed Time Bake features.

2. Press and release Speed Bake switch. The indicator light located above the Speed
Bake switch will glow and the fan will come on. The fan stays on when the oven door

is closed and shuts offwhile the oven door isopened. The fan will continue to operate
until cooking is complete.

3. To cancel Speed Bake, press _ onthe oven control as you would tostop any baking
function.

NOTE: The Speed Bake feature will not work during a Self-Cleaning cycle.

14

To Set for Broiling:

1. Arrange the oven rack while oven is still cool. Position the rack as
suggested in the Broil Rack Position Table below.

2. Press _. "---- "will appear in

display.

3. Press and hold the/_k or V until the desired broil setting level appears in
the display. Press the ,_k for HI broil or the V for LO broil. Most foods

may be broiled at the HI broil setting. Select the LO broil setting to avoid
excess browning or drying of foods that should be cooked to the well-done
stage.

4. For optimum browning, preheat broil element for 3 - 4 minutes
before adding food,

5. Place the insert on the broil pan (if equipped), then place the food on the
insert (if equipped; See Fig. 1).

6. Place the broiler pan and insert on the oven rack (if equipped). Open the
oven door to the broil stop position when broiling (See Fig 2).

7. Broil on one side until food is browned. Turn and broil food on 2nd side.
Note: Always pull the oven rack out to the stop position before turning or

removing the food.

8. When broiling is finished press @.

Broil Rack Position Table (Refer to Fig. 3)
Rack Postion from Top Food category

1st rack position Medium-rare steaks & hamburgers

Fig.1 (some models)

Fig. 2

2nd rack position Fish, medium steaks & pork chops

3rd rack position Well-done foods such as chicken & lobster

To insure proper results when broiling use ONLY Electrolux Home

Products, Inc. approved Broil Pan & Insert.

The broiler pan and the insert allows grease to drain and be kept away from the
high heat of the broiler. DO NOT use the pan without the insert. DO NOT cover
the insert with foil; the exposed grease could ignite. DO NOT use the broil pan

without the insert or cover the insert with aluminum foil. The exposed fat could

ignite.

Self-Cleaning Oven

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 protective coatings inor 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 and insert, all utensils and any aluminum

foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

• Oven racks do not have to be removed. 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 or fire 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.

• 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 and water.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed.

Baking element
may betilted about

4 or5 inches
toclean oven bottom

The Bake element is located in the lower oven cavity (See illustration at
left).The bake element is designed to be tilted up using your hand from the front

of the bake element. This will allow easier access to the oven bottom for
cleaning. Remove the Bottom Rack before raising the element. Be careful not

to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.

The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have cooled after

they have been turned OFF. The elements may still be hot and burns may occur

ifthese elements are touched before they have cooled sufficiently.

16

Starting the Self-Clean Cycle or a Delayed Start Self-Clean Cycle (including Speed Clean)

For

satisfactory results, press the _ (Speed Clean) pad for a 2 hour Self-Clean cycle (for lighter soils). Press the

(Clean) pad for 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.

To Set the Controls for a Self-Clean Cycle or a Delayed Start Self-Clean Cycle:

Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop,

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. Buffwith

a non-abrasive cloth or no-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

O

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 cookwarewith dirt or dirt build up
on bottom; replace with clean cookware before using. Do not use your
cooktop asa cutting board orwork 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 buffsurface 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.

the material affect heating. Heavy and medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because
lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily.

No power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance Does Not Operate" in
this Before You Call checklist.

Incorrect control setting. Make sure the correct control is set for the surface element to
be used.

Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet.

service agent.

Oven smokes excessively during broiling.

Poor baking results.

Self-Cleaning cycle does not work.

Soil not completely removed after Self-
Cleaning cycle.

Control(s) not set properly. Follow instructions under Setting Oven Controls.
Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop position.
Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the rack to provide proper clearance

between the meat and the element. Preheat broil element for searing.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges

to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.

Insert on broiler pan wrong side up and grease not draining. Always place grid on the
broiler pan with ribs up and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan (some models).

Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling

frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive smoking.

Many factors affect baking results. Make sure the proper rack position is used. Center
food in the oven and 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.

Oven control not set properly. Follow instructions under Self-Cleaning.

Self-Cleaning cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under "Stopping or Interrupting a Self-

Cleaning Cycle" under Self-Cleaning

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.

Excessive spillovers in oven. Set Self-Clean cycle for a longer cleaning time.

Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for high oven temperatures, pie

spillovers or large amounts of grease on bottom of oven. Wipe up excessive spillovers

before starting cycle. If flames or excessive smoke are present, stop the self-clean cycle

and follow steps under "Stopping or interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle" in the Self-

Cleaning section.

Coarse particles such as salt or sand between cooktop and utensils can cause

scratches. Be sure cooktop surface and bottoms of utensils are clean before usage.

Small scratches do not affect cooking and will become less visible with time.

Cleaning materials not recommended for ceramic-glass cooktop have been used. See

"Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance" in the General Care & Cleaning section.

Cookware with rough bottom has been used. Use smooth, flat-bottomed cookware.

Sliding or scraping of metal utensils on cooktop surface. Do not slide metal utensils

on cooktop surface. Use a ceramic-glass cooktop cleaning creme to remove the marks.

See "Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance" in the General Care & Cleaning section.

Boilovers are cooked onto surface. Use razor blade scraper to remove soil. See

"Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance" in the General Care & Cleaning section.
