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 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 isturned 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 underaventilating hood, turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN

* Use Care When Opening Oven Door orWarmer Drawer/Bake=

n=Warm TM Double Oven (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 alumin urn 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 agood 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.

Types of Oven Racks & Roasting Shelf

Your range may be equipped with one or more of
the oven rack types shown; Flat Oven Rack

(Fig. 5) and Roasting Shelf (Fig. 6; some
models). To maximize cooking space the
Roasting Shelf should be used in the lowest rack
position to roast large cuts of meat and poultry
(See Fig. 2).

Place Roasting Shelf with care (some models; 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 l& 4 (See Fig. 7). For best
results when using a single Flat Oven Rack, place cookware on rack position 2 or 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 and

cookware do not touch each other,

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. Make
sure the diameter of the pan matches the

diameter of the element outline on the cooktop
(See Fig 1). Heat is transferred up through the
surface of the cooktop to the cookware. Only

flat-bottom cookware should be used. The type

and size of cookware, the number of surface
elements in use and the 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 a uniform
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: 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 cooktop. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur

if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware
bottom is not flat (Refer to page 13 for using correct cookware

instructions with the cooktop).

Your range is equipped with radiant surface
burners with different wattage ratings. The ability
to heat food quicker and in larger volumes
increases as the element wattage increases.

NOTE: Please read detailed instructions for

ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the Care &
Cleaning section and Before You Call

checklist sections of this Use and Care Manual.

The Electronic Surface Element Control (ESEC)

The Electronic Surface Element Control ("ESEC") feature
includes 4 digital display windows. The ESEC feature provides
a numeric digital setting for 4 of the radiant surface element
positions on the cooktop. These settings work the same way
as normal knob setting indicators work except the settings are
displayed in digital windows (Figs. 1thru 4).

The available ESEC Display Settings

The ESEC control provides various heat levels from Hi (Fig. 2)
to Lo (Fig. 4) and OFF (Fig. 1).

Use the chart (Fig. 5) to determine the correct setting for the
kind of food you are preparing. The Simmer settings are used
to simmer and keep larger quantities of foods warm such as
stews and soups. The lower Simmer settings are ideal for
delicate foods and melting chocolate or butter,

Note: The size and type of cookware used will influence the
setting needed for best cooking results,

Radiant surface elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently,

Do not place plastic items such as salt and

pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrappings on
top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt
or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire
if placed too close to the surface elements.

Recommended Surface Cooking Settings

RECOMMENDED SETTINGS FOR SINGLE, BRIDGE & DUAL ELEMENTS

vegetables
MEDIUM LOW (2 - 3) Keep foods cooking, poach, stew
LOW (Lo - 2) Keep warm, melt, simmer Fig. 5

Fig. 3 Fig. 4

ESEC Hot Element indicator Message (HE)

After using any of the single, dual or Bridge radiant element positions the cooktop will
become very hot. Even after turning the control knob to OFF, the cooktop will remain hot for
some time. The ESEC control monitors the temperature of the cooktop and displays the
message "HE" (hot element) warning when the cooktop is still too hot to touch (See Fig. 1). If
the HE message appears in the window, the control can still be turned on again for use.

ESEC Error indicator Message (Er)

An error message will be displayed (flashing "Er") at power up (or after a power failure) if ANY
of the surface control knobs were left in the ON positions. If a power failure should occur, be
sure to set all of the 4 surface control knobs to the OFF position (See Fig. 2). This will reset

the surface controls.
Be sure to reset the clock (See page 15). Once the surface controls have been set to the

OFF positions and the clock has been set with the correct time of day, the surface controls
should return to normal operation. If the surface controls do not function and the "Er"
message remains in any display after following these procedures, contact an authorized

servicerfor assistance.

ESEC Lockout Feature ( - - )

The Self-Clean feature will not operate whenever a radiant surface element is ON. Conversely
the ESEC feature will not operate during the Self-Clean cycle. Whenever the ESEC Lockout
feature is active, "- -" may appear in any display window (See Fig. 3). If any of the surface
elements are still hot during active Lockout, "HE" will appear in the window instead of the "--"
message.

Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction
to the desired setting using the ESEC digital display

window for the desired setting (Fig. 4). Turn (do not push)
the knob to adjust the setting if desired. Start most cooking
operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower
setting to finish cooking. Each surface element )rovides 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.

,

When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE
message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF if

the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the heating
surface area has cooled sufficiently.

time during cooking.

To Operate the Dual Element(s):

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the dual surface
element.

2. Push in and turn the control knob counterclockwise (See
Fig. 2) for smaller cookware or clockwise (See Fig. 5) for
larger cookware.

3. Use the ESEC digital display window for the desired
setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if
needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting
and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. 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.

4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. Note: The HE
message will appear after turning the control knob to OFF
if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on until the radiant
heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. Note: See
page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended control settings.

Fig. 3

The Bridge Radiant Element (some models)

Some ceramic cooktops are equipped with a "BRIDGE"
surface element located at the left front and middle (See
Fig. 10) positions. The Bridge can be used when cooking
with rectangular (like a griddle) or oval shaped cookware
(Fig. 10). The element will maintain an even temperature
setting across both portions of the Bridge. If needed for
normal cookware, the Bridge element can work like a
single element without the Bridge (See Fig. 8).

Bridge element operation symbols are located on the
control panel on each side of the Bridge element control
knob. These symbols indicate the direction to turn the
control knob when operating the Bridge element. The
symbol in Fig. 7 indicates that only the single portion of
the Bridge element will heat (See Fig. 8). The symbol in
Fig. 9 indicates that both the single and Bridge portions
of the element will heat together (Fig. 10). You may
switch from either of these settings at any time during
cooking with the Bridge element.

Radiant surface elements may appear to have

cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

setting. Turn (do not push) the knob to adjust the setting if

needed. Start most cooking operations on a higher setting

and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. 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. Please note that not all cookware
will fit the Bridge element correctly.

4. When cooking has completed, turn the surface control
knob to OFF before removing the cookware. The HE
message will appear in the display after turning the control
knob to OFF if the cooktop is still hot and will remain on
until the radiant heating surface area has cooled

sufficiently. Note: See page 8, Fig. 5 for recommended
control settings.

The BRIDGE element may also be used in combination with the

left rear single element. Because these elements have 2

different controls, one element can be used to cook while the
other element may be used to keep food warm (See Fig. 5).

Radiant surface elements may appear to have

cooled after they have been turned off. The glass surface may
still be hot and burns may occur if the glass surface is
touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Operating the Warming Zone (some models)

The purpose of the Warming Zone is to keep hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Use the Warming Zone to keep
cooked foods hot such as; vegetables, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries and oven-safe dinner plates.
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 plates, utensils and
cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the Warming Zone.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing food from the Warming

Zone as cookware and plates will be hot.

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). If aluminum 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 above).

o Curved and warped pan

bottoms.

• Pan overhangs element by
more than one-half inch.

o Pan is smaller than

element.

® Heavy handle tilts pan.

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.

Arranging Warming Drawer Rack Positions

The rack can be used in 2 ways:

• In the upright position to allow low profile food items to be placed both
under and on top of the rack (for example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack
and a casserole dish underneath).

• In the downward position to allow you to place light weight food items and
empty cookware (for example, rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the

rack.
Set the Warming Drawer rack in either position as shown below (Fig. 1).

g Drawer g Drawer

Rack in upward Rack in downward

position oosition

Fig. 1

To Operate the Warming Drawer

The purpose of the Warming Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold
food in the Warming Drawer.

All food placed in the Warming Drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum
foil to maintain quality. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may
melt onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and
cookware recommended for oven use in the Warming Drawer.

Always use pot holders or
oven mitts when removing food from the
Warming Drawer as cookware and plates
will be hot and you can be burned.

Food Settings Table

To Set the Warming Drawer Control

The control is used to select the temperature of the Warming Drawer. It is
located on the control panel. To set the control, push in and turn the knob to

the desired setting. The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by
HI (high), MED (medium) and LO (low). To set the Warming Drawer control:

1. Turn the knob to select the desired temperature setting.

2. For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer
will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.

3. When done, turn the control to OFF.

Warming Drawer Temperature Selection

Recommended Warming Drawer food settings are shown in Fig. 3. If a
particular food is not listed, start with the MED setting. If more crispness is
desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept
at serving temperatures on the MED setting. When a combination of foods are
to be kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls) use the HI
setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open the Warming Drawer while in use.

Warming Drawer Indicator Light

The Warming Drawer indicator light islocated above the Warming Drawer
control knob (See Fig. 2). It turns on when the control is set, and stays on until
the control isturned off. The Warming Drawer will not operate during the

Setting Broil

The 10 pad controls the Broil feature. When broiling, heat radiates downward from the oven broiler for even coverage. The
Broil feature is preset to start broiling at 550°F however, the Broil feature temperature may be set at any temperature

between 400°F and 550°F.
The broil pan and broil pan insert used together allows dripping grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the

oven broiler. DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert (See Fig. 6; some models). DO NOT cover the broil pan insert
with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.

Should an oven fire occur, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven OFF. Ifthe fire continues, throw

baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher. DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water
can cause a grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.

To insure proper results when broiling use ONLY Electrolux Home Products, Inc. approved Broil Pan

& Insert.

INSTRUCTIONS PRESS DISPLAY

To set the oven to broil at the default setting (550°F):

1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food
on the broiler pan insert (some models). DO NOT use the broiler
pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broiler insert with foil.
The exposed grease could ignite.

2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the

Benefits of Convection Bake: I

--Some foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.

--Multiple rack baking.

--No special pans or bakeware needed.

Setting Convection Bake

The CONV BAKE, pad controls the Convection Bake feature. Use
the Convection Bake feature when cooking speed is desired. The oven

can be programmed for Convection Bake at any temperature between

170° F (77° C) to 550 ° F (288 ° C).

Convection baking uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See Fig. 1). This
improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time. Foods
cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with Convection Bake. Multiple oven rack cooking
may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads and pastries brown more

evenly.

Tips for Convection Bake

1. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be
baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with

a dark finish will cook faster.

2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with Convection Bake.

3. When using Convection Bake with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. Ifcooking on multiple racks, place
the oven racks in positions 1,3 and 6 (for 3 racks) and positions 2 and 5 (See Fig. 1).

.

Cakes have better results when baked using the BAKE pad.

Setting Convection Roast

The CONV ROAST pad is designed to give optimum cooking performance for this feature. The Convection Roast pad
combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to roast meats and poultry. Preheating is not necessary for

meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the food from all sides, sealing in juices and flavors. Foods are crispy brown
on the outside while staying moist on the inside.

Roasting Rack Instructions (some models)

When preparing meats for convection roasting, use the broiler pan and insert along with
the roasting rack (if equipped). The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert will
help prevent grease splatters. The roasting rack will allow the heat to circulate around

the meat.

To prevent food from contacting the broil element and to prevent grease

splattering, DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.

1. Place oven rack on bottom or next to the bottom rack position. See Arranging Oven
Racks in the Before Setting Oven Controls section.

2. Place the insert in the broiler pan. The roasting rack fits on the insert allowing the
heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and helps to increase

browning on the underside. Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the
insert in the broiler pan. DO NOT use the broiler pan without the insert. DO NOT
cover the insert with aluminum foil.

3. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack (See Fig. 4).

4. Place the broiler pan on the oven rack,

Convection Convert MUST be used with a Convection Bake keypad. When used with a Timed Bake or a Delayed Timed
Bake setting, the Convection Convert feature will display a "CF" for check food when the bake time is 75% complete (See
Fig. 4). At this time the oven control will sound 3 long beeps at regular intervals until baking has finished. When the bake

time has completely finished the control will display "End" and will sound 3 long beeps every 30 seconds until the _f_ pad
is pressed (See Fig. 5).

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 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 and insert, all utensils and any aluminum

foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

. Remove oven 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 & the finish will be dull. After the
cycle is complete & 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 positions).

. 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.

The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have cooled
after they have been turned OFF. The elements may still be hot and burn may
occur if these elements are touched before they have cooled sufficiently.

for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled

scouring pad. Rinse & wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may
become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top. For

Warmer Drawer cleaning instructions see the Warmer Drawer section.

Remove oven racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven
Controls. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner's recommendations. Rinse with

clean water & let dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a
cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven

rack positions).

Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass Cooktopl

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic surface (visit
www.frigidaire.com for replacment cleaner). Buff with 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
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

O

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.

35

_BRASIVE

Door Hinge

locations

with oven door
fully open

Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:

• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon
pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.

• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as
they may etch or discolor the cooktop.

• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint on
the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.

Special Caution for Aluminum Use on the Ceramic Cooktop:

Aluminum Foil =Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop will damage the ceramic
cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to
touch the ceramic cooktop under ANY circumstances.

Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of
other metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the
cooktop. If allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be destroyed, but it may
fuse to, break or mark the ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the
cooktop surface.

Solutions to Common Problems .............................................

Before you call for service, review the following list. It may save you time & expense. The list includes common occurrences

(shown 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 ap_pliance easily. Ap_oliance 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 enough = Incorrect control

setting. Be sure the correct control is ON.
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.

Entire a_joliance 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" in the 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 in the Use & Care Manual.
Oven control beeps & displays any F code error (for exam Ipl_e_

Ftt3_ = 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.

Oven smokes excessively durin_ - (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.

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.

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_ =

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=Cleaning c_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

or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle" under Self=Cleaning.

Metal marks (Ceramic Cooktop) = 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 and Maintenance"

in the Care & Cleaning section.
Scratches or abrasions on cooktop surface (Ceramic

Cooktop) = (1) 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. (2) Cleaning materials not recommended for
ceramic-glass cooktop have been used. See "Cooktop

Cleaning & Maintenance." (3) Cookware with rough bottom has

been used. Use smooth, flat-bottomed cookware.

Brown streaks or specks on cooktop surface (Ceramic
Cooktop) = Boilovers are cooked onto surface. Use razor blade

scraper to remove soil. See "Cooktop Cleaning and

Maintenance" in the Care & Cleaning section.
Areas of discoloration with metallic sheen (Ceramic Cooktop)

= Mineral deposits from water and food. Remove using a
ceramic-glass cooktop cleaning creme. Use cookware with

clean, dry bottoms.
