seriously injured.
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 OR INTERIOR SURFACES
OF THE OVEN. Both surface units and oven heating elements
may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near
surface units may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or otherfiammable
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.

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.

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

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 be sure 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.

Before Setting Oven Controls (cont'd)
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 a uniform
and consistent heat during the off cycle.

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).
g

The Element On indicator lights are located on the control panel above each radiant
element control knob and will glow when a surface element is turned ON. A quick glance
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 a MODERATE level.
Left 000
Rear O @
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). 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).
STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conctuctor 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
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.

Speed Bake TM Cooking System
Benefits of Speed Bake TM Cooking 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. Italso gives better baking results when using
two racks at the same time.
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
tenderand moist on the inside. Breads and pastry brown more
evenly. Most foods baked in a standard oven can be cooked
faster and more evenlywith Speed Bake TMCooking System.
NOTE: The Speed Bake feature will not work during a Self-
Cleaning cycle.
General Cooking Instructions:
For Baking:
1. For optimum cooking results it is recommended to
preheat the oven when baking foods such as cookies,
biscuits and breads.
2. Reduce oven temperature 25° Ffrom recipe's
recommended oven temperature. Follow the remainder
of the recipe's instructions using the minimum
recommended cook time.
12
Setting Oven Controls (cont'd)
3. When using 2 oven racks at the same time, place in
positions 2 & 5 for best results (See Fig. 2)
Note: Layer cakes will have better results using the
normal 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 doneness 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. Program 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

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.
, Oven racks do not have to be removed. Ifthey are not
removed during the Self-Clean cycle their color will turn
slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the cycle is
complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the
oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small
amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide
easier into the rack position).
Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity
before starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use
hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can
cause heavy smoke orfire when subjected to high
temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high
sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the
surface as they may leave a dull spot even after
cleaning.
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.
During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the outside of
the range can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave
small children unattended near the appliance.
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.
DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom
or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so
will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results
and cause permanent damage to the oven interior
(aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).
DO NOT force the oven door open. This can
damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution
when opening the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is
completed, The oven may still be VERY HOT.
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills
remaining on the oven bottom should be removed.
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.

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 easierwhen 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 cookwate with dirt or dirt build up
on bottom; replace with clean cookware before using. Do not use your
cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods
directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard
objects on the ceramic glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.
Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are turned to OFF and the cooktop is COOL.
DO NOT use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can
chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.
Cleaning Recommendations for the Ceramic Glass Cooktop
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive plastic
type no-scratch cleaning pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no
residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive
plastic type no-scratch cleaning pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for
any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding
scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with
cooktop cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you
use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning products that have been
specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktops.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the
ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop
surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface
elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and
scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool,
and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.

used.
Surface element does not heat - (1) Lightweight or warped
pans used. Use only flat, evenly balanced, medium or
heavyweight cookware. Flat pans heat better than warped
pans. Cookware materials and weight of the material affect
heating. Heavy & medium-weight pans heat evenly. Because
lightweight pans heat unevenly, foods may burn easily. (2) No
power to the appliance. Check steps under "Entire Appliance
Does Not Operate" in this checklist. (3) Incorrect control
setting. Make sure the correct control is ON for the surface
element to be used.
Entire appliance does not operate - (1) The time of day is not
set. The time of day must first be set in order to operate the
oven. See "To Set the Clock" 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 section in this Use & Care Manual.
Oven control beeps & displays any F code error (for example
- Electronic control has detected a fault condition. Press
CLEAR/OFF to clear the display & stop beeping. Reprogram
oven. If fault recurs, record fault number. Press CLEAR/OFF &
contact an authorized service agent.
Flames inside oven or smoking from oven vent - Excessive
spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie
spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom.
Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting oven. If flames or
excessive smoke are present see "Broiling" in the Setting
Oven Controls section.
Oven smokes excessively during broilinq- (1) Control(s) not
set properly. Follow Broil instructions under Setting Oven
Controls. (2) Make sure oven door is opened to broil stop
position. (3) Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the
broil rack to provide proper clearance between the meat & the
element. Preheat the broil element for searing. (4) Meat not
properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut fatty
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean. (5) Insert on
broiler pan wrong side up & grease not draining. Always place
grid on the broiler pan with ribs up & slots down to allow grease
to drip into pan (some models). (6) Grease has built up on oven
surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling
frequently. Old grease or food spatters cause excessive
smoking.
Poor baking results - Many factors affect baking results. Make
sure the proper oven rack position is used. Center food in the
oven & space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to
preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven.
Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking
time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see Adjusting Your
Oven Temperature in this Use & Care Manual.

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.

cleaning creme to remove the marks. See "Cooktop Cleaning
and Maintenance" in the Care & Cleaning section.
