IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP

Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.

Know which knob or key controls each surface heating area. Place cookware with food on the cooking area before turning it on. Turn the cooking area off before removing the cookware.

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware may expose a portion of the flame to direct contact and may result in the ignition of clothing or other items. Using the proper cookware on the cooking areas will improve efficiency.

Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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 burners.

Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings — Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

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 you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN

Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other materials or devices to line oven bottom, oven racks, or any other part of the appliance. Only use aluminum as recommended for baking, such as lining cookware or as a cover placed on food. Any other use of protective liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short circuit.

Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the appliance 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. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or heatsensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or ignite.

convection baking.

Preheat the oven for best results.

Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommended. Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations, adjusting the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time.

Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to 40% depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue cooking until the desired doneness is obtained.

Use a meat probe if available with your appliance. Meat probes are also available from most grocery and home goods stores.

Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.

Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.

When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. If you do not have one of these accesso ries, they may be purchased from Frigidaire.com.

Cookware Material Types

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner 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 and pitting).

• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily (See Aluminum).

• Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

•Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor that retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.

• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.

•Glass - Slow heat conductor.

Gas surface burner types

The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quickly and in large amounts increases as the burner size increases.

• Simmer burners keep foods cooking at very low temperatures.

• Standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.

• Quick Boil is best for bringing large quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature

• The Power Burner is convenient when preparing larger quantities of food.

Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and set the flame size appropriately for the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.

Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings on the cooktop 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 range cooktop.

Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may damage the cooktop.

Do not straddle cookware over two burner areas unless the cookware is specifically designed for that purpose.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Setting surface controls

The ability to heat food quickly and in large volumes increases as the burner size increases. Your gas appliance may be equipped with many different sized surface burners.

It is important to select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate for the cookware size.

• The standard size burner or burners may be used for most surface cooking needs.

• Small burners are best used for low-flame heating of small amounts of food.

• Large burners are best for bringing large quantities of liquid to temperature or heating larger quantities of food.

Setting a surface burner:

1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface burner grate.

Be sure the cooking utensil rests stable on the burner grate.

2. Push the burner’s surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position (

3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to the LITE position ( steady gas flame.

• When setting a surface control knob to the lite position, all of the electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.

• In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners may be lit manually. To light a surface burner, hold a lit match to the burner head, then slowly turn the surface control knob to lite. Once the burner ignites, push in and turn knob out of lite then to the desired flame setting. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.

Page 17

Set proper burner flame size

CAUTION

The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean the burner if flame is yellow-orange.

For most cooking: start on the highest setting and then turn to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking (

For deep fat frying: use a thermometer and adjust the surface knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be under-cooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Cooking with a griddle (some models)

Figure 10: Griddle

The griddle is a versatile accessory that is perfect for cooking foods that require large flat surfaces such as pancakes, French toast, grilled sandwiches, bacon, and also for cooking different foods at the same time.

After use, let the griddle cool before washing. Hand wash with hot soapy water. Do not soak. Dry thoroughly. Do not put a griddle in a dishwasher.

If you would like to purchase a griddle, you can order one from Frigidaire.com.

Using the griddle:

Place the griddle securely on top of the burner grates. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to medium low setting. Slow preheat ensures even heat distribution during the cooking process. DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheating on HI may warp the griddle and prevent even heat distribution.

Home Canning

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Web site and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for home canning proce dures.

• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is flat. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner.

• It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops and to center canners on the burner grates.

• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.

• Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.

• Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information.

• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.

• Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high

heat for an extended amount of time.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Oven Vent Location

The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven is on, warm air is released through the vent. This venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good baking results. Do not block oven vent. Never close off the openings with aluminium foil or any other material. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.

Figure 11: Oven vent

Types of oven racks

Figure 12: Oven rack types

• Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking needs

and may be placed in most oven rack positions.

Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset oven racks

Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool.

Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil or any other material or liners to line the oven bottom, walls, racks or any other part of the range. Doing so will alter the heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and possibly cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire. During self clean, temperatures in the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.

• Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

• Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven racks may be damaged and all of the oven racks will lose their shiny finish.

• To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully positioned back inside the oven cavity.

To re m o v e - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly and slide out.

To replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides on both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure oven racks are level before using.

Convection Roast

Convection roast combines a cook cycle with the convection fan and element to rapidly roast meats and poultry. Heated air circulates around the meat from all sides, seal ing in juices and flavors. Meats cooked with this feature are crispy and brown on the outside while staying moist inside.

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on fire. Flour may be explosive.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

Benefits of Convection Roasting:

• Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving time and

energy.

• No special pans or bakeware required.

• Preheating is not necessary for most meats and poultry.

To set Convection Roast:

1. Place the insert on broiler pan. Place meat (fat side up)

on insert.

2. Make sure the insert is securely seated on top of the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.

3. Place prepared food on oven rack and slide into oven.

4. Close the oven door.

5. Press Conv Roast.

6. Enter desired temperature using numeric keys.

7. Press START.

8. When cooking is completed or to cancel convection roast press OFF.

• Be sure to carefully follow your recipe’s temperature

and time recommendations or refer to the convection roast chart for additional information.

Figure 24: Convection roasting on lower oven racks

Page 30

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Convection Roasting tips:

• Preheating for convection roast will not be necessary for most meats and poultry.

• Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.

• Smaller roasts and poultry should be cooked using rack position 2 or 3.

• Since convection roast cooks faster, you can reduce cook times as much as 25% from the recommended time of

your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.

• Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations or refer to the convection roast recommendations for additional information.

• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.

• When cooking meats use the broiler pan and insert. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps

prevent grease splatters.

Cooking with Meat Probe

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry.

The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature.

When active, the probe displays the internal food temperature which is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check the thermometer.

For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food.

Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe cable or handles. Always insert and remove the probe using the provided handles, as shown in a pot holder to protect hands from possible burns.

Figure 26, and always use

• Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only the original probe provided. Connecting any other probe or device could result in damage to the oven control, electronics, and the receptacle.

• Before starting self clean or broiling, double check that the probe is removed from the oven interior.

• Defrost frozen foods completely before inserting the probe.

Proper placement of probe in food.

• Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the

center of the thickest part of meat or food (See

Figure 27). For best results, do not allow the probe

temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware.

Figure 26: Using the probe

Figure 27: Probe in thickest area of food

• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the

center of lowest large muscle or joint.

• For meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center of food.

• When cooking fish, insert meat probe just above the gill.

• For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe sensor

into the thickest part of the breast (See

Figure 28: Probe in thickest part breast

NOTE

To set probe:

1. Insert the meat probe into the food. Place prepared food

on the desired oven rack position and slide into the oven.

2. Plug the connector end of the probe all the way into the probe receptacle while the oven is still cool. The recep tacle is located on the upper left front oven cavity wall. Close oven door.

3. Set oven for Quick Preheat, Bake, Convection Bake, or Convection Roast and set oven temperature.

4. Press START.

5. Press Probe. The Probe default temperature of 170°F

appears. Using the numeric keys set the desired internal food temperature for food type.

Note: The minimum setting is 140ºF (60ºC); the maximum is 210ºF (99ºC). Default is 170ºF (77ºC).

6. Press START to accept the target temperature.

7. The control will provide three beeps when the internal

target temperature is reached.

8. When the internal target temperature is reached, the oven will automatically change to Hld setting and will maintain the oven temperature at 170°F (77°C) until canceled. The temperature of the food will appear in the display alternating with the Hld setting of 170°F (77°C).

9. To stop cooking at any time, press OFF.

During cooking the internal food temperature will display by default. To see the target temperature press the probe key once. After 3 seconds the display will revert to the

internal food temperature. To assure accuracy, do not

remove the probe from the food or receptacle until the desired internal temperature is reached.

If the probe is removed from the receptacle only, the probe feature will cancel but the oven will continue to cook. If the probe is removed from the food only, the probe feature will remain active and may eventually generate a probe too hot message.

To change the target temperature while cooking, press the probe key once. Use the numeric keys to change the temperature. Press the START key to accept any change.

Setting the Sabbath Feature (for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)

For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage, and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at www.star-k.org.

This appliance provides special settings for use when observing the Jewish Sabbath/Holidays. Sabbath mode dis ables all audible tones or visual display changes on the oven control. Bake heating is the only cooking feature avail able while in the Sabbath mode. Oven controls are locked during Sabbath mode.

You must first set the Bake feature and temperature(s) needed for the oven and Delay Start option (if needed). Any settings made prior to setting the Sabbath mode will be visible in the displays.

The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 12 hour energy saving mode, and the appliance will stay on until the cooking features are cancelled. If any of the cooking fea tures are cancelled when the appliance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible or visual indicators will be available to verify the cancellation.

If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to activate them prior to setting the Sabbath mode. Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath mode is active, the oven light will remain on until the Sabbath mode is turned off and the oven lights are turned off. The oven door will not activate the interior oven lights when the oven door is opened or closed.

It is recommended that any oven temperature modification made within an active Sabbath mode be followed with two presses of the START key. This will insure the oven remains on even if an attempt is made to set the oven temperature outside of its temperature range.

If the oven temperature is set outside of the temperature range, the oven will default to the nearest available temper ature. Try to set the desired oven temperature again.

Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled

in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking

begins, and should be removed promptly when finished cooking.

Important:

• Do not attempt to activate any other oven function

except Bake while the Sabbath feature is active. The following keys will function correctly when the Sabbath feature is active: 0-9 number keypad, Bake, START, and OFF. All other keys should not be used once the Sabbath feature is active.

• You may change the oven temperature once baking has started. Press Bake, use the numeric keypad to enter the oven temperature change (170°F to 550F°), and press START (for Jewish Holidays only).

• Remember that the oven control will no longer provide audible tones or display any further changes when the Sabbath feature is active.

• The oven will shut-off automatically after completing a keep warm and therefore may only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish Holidays.

• If a delay start time longer than 11 hours and 59 minutes is desired, set the oven control for the 24 hour day display mode setting. See

Hour display mode” on page 21 for more information.

Self Clean

A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures), which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away afterwards with a damp cloth. This func tion can be programmed for clean times between 2 and 4 hours.

Important: Before starting self clean read all following caution and important statements before starting a self clean cycle

• Do not leave small children unattended near appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot and cause burns if touched.

• Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bottom, or any part of the range with aluminum foil. This will cause permanent damage to the oven interior and destroy heat distribution, and will melt to the oven interior.

• Do not force the oven door open. This will damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the oven door after the self clean cycle ends. The oven may still be very hot and cause burns. To avoid possible burns, stand to side of oven when opening door to allow steam or hot air to escape.

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

• Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before starting a self clean cycle. To clean use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause heavy smoke or fire when

subjected to high temperatures.

• Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie fillings) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven material in the gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket and compromise the performance of the oven.

Important notes:

• Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories

from oven cavity to avoid damage to oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolor.

• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures from a self clean cycle and will melt.

• Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. 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 ( to burn soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to starting Self Clean.

Figure 33). These areas heat sufficiently

Fig. 33 Areas to clean and areas to avoid (gasket)

• The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an

open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust hood during the first self clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors.

• Do not attempt to open the oven door when the OVEN LOCK indicator light is flashing. Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock the oven door.

• When the clean time finishes, the oven door will remain locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In addition to the clean time that was programmed, you must allow about 1 additional hour for the oven to cool before you will be able to open the oven door.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils

• Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the oven

bottom or cover an entire oven rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat, causing a fire hazard.

• Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

Cleaning the sealed burners

• Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop

can damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to touch the surface elements 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 aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when using the cooktop, not only will the utensil be damaged or destroyed, but it may fuse to, break, or mark the ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the cooktop surface.

To clean burner heads:

1. Remove the burner cap from the burner head (see

Figure 38). Clean the cap with hot soapy water and dry

thoroughly.

Figure 38: Burner Cap

2. For burned-on and dried spills, apply hot soapy water to

the burner head. Allow time for the soils to soften.

To avoid possible burns, do not attempt cleaning before turning off all surface burners and allowing them to cool.

Any additions, changes, or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized qualified Agency. Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches. Keeping the surface burner head ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame.
