Important Instructions For Ceramic Glass

Cooktops

Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop is

broken, cleaning solutions and spills may

penetrate the cooktop and create a risk of electric

shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

Exercise caution when cleaning the cooktop. If a

wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot

cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burns.

Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if

applied to a hot surface.

Important Instructions for Using your Cooktop

Know which knob or keypad controls each surface

cooking zone. Place pan with food on the cooking

zone before turning it on. Turn the cooking zone off

before removing the pan.

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped

with induction cooking zones of different sizes.

Select utensils specifically manufactured or

approved for induction cooking. Pans should have

flat bottoms that match the induction cooking zone

size. Using the proper utensil on the cooking zone

will improve efficiency.

To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable

materials, and spills due to unintentional contact

with the cookware, turn utensil handles inward and

do not extend them over other cooking zones.

Never leave surface cooking zones unattended.

Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy spills

may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry could be

damaged and may damage the cooktop.

• When you are flaming foods under a ventilating

hood, turn on the fan.

Important Instructions for Using Your Oven

• Never use your appliance for warming or heating

the room.

Use care when opening oven door, lower oven

door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to

the side of the oven 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 clear. Touching surfaces in

this area when the oven is on may cause severe

burns. Do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items

on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or

ignite.

Placement of oven racks - Always place oven

racks in their desired locations while oven is cool.

If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do

not let potholder contact a hot heating element in

the oven. 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 cookware and utensils before moving

the rack.

Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler

pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain 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

surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as

suggested in the manual. Improper installation of

these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or

fire.

• Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook

in proper cookware and always use the oven

racks.

Save these instructions for future reference.

Important Instructions for Cleaning Your Oven Grounding Instructions

Before manually cleaning any part of the range, be

sure all controls are turned off and the range is cool.

Cleaning a hot range can cause burns.

• Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of

grease that could catch fire. Pay particular

attention to the area around each surface element.

Do not allow grease to accumulate.

Always follow the manufacturer's recommended

directions for use of kitchen cleaners and aerosols.

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 the manufacturer's instructions for cleaning

hoods.

Avoid fire hazard or electrical shock. Do not use an

adapter plug, extension cord, or remove grounding

prong from the power cord. Failure to follow this

warning may cause serious injury, fire, or death.

Induction Cooking Zones

Your cooktop is equipped with four induction cooking zones

of different sizes and a radiant heat warmer zone (Figure 1).

Figure 1: Typical induction cooktop

Induction Cookware

Before using the induction cooking zones, be sure to

carefully read and follow these cookware recommenda-

tions and the instructions in the pan sensing section.

When purchasing pans for use on the induction cooktop,

look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer

as induction ready, induction capable, or a similar statement

by the manufacturer that the cookware is specifically

designed for induction cooking.

The cooking zones will not activate if the cookware is not

constructed with a base magnetic material. To check if the

cookware base material is suitable, use a magnet to test

(Figure 2). If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware,

the material type is correct.

Benefits of Induction Surface Cooking

Fast and efficient - Induction cooking zones heat faster and

use less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil

and they are efficient when simmering.

A cooler cooktop - A unique feature of the induction cooking

zones is, whether it is turned on or off, the cooking zones

remain cooler than radiant type elements. Virtually no

wasted heat is produced since the heat begins with the

presence of cookware.

Easy cleanups - The cooler cooking zones make cleanup

easier. Spills resist sticking or burning so they wipe up

easily.

Magnetic detector - The cooking zone has a sensor that

automatically detects whether cookware is magnetic. This

will reduce accidental "turn-ons."

Pan size detection - The pan size recognition sensor auto-

matically detects and adapts the induction cooking zones to

the pan sizes in use for consistent, more even cooking.

More responsive - Induction cooking zones are more

responsive than their electric or gas counterparts because

only the pan heats. This type of cooking heats easier and

will be just as responsive when reducing to a simmer.

Induction cooking directly heats the pan; heating will only

begin when cookware is properly placed on the cooking

zones.

Figure 2: Testing a pan for magnetic properties

For the best possible surface cooking results, it is recom-

mended to only use high quality heavy gauge cookware on

the induction cooking zones. Be sure to follow all the manu-

facturer's recommendations when using cookware made for

induction cooking.

Induction Cookware Types

The most common induction cookware types available are:

• Stainless steel - Generally excellent for induction

cooking. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast iron - Good for induction cooking. Cooks evenly.

Do not slide cast iron cookware on cooktop. Cast iron

cookware with a rough surface will scratch ceramic

cooktop.

Porcelain-enamel coated metals - Heating characteris-

tics will vary depending on quality of base material.

Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to avoid

scratching the ceramic cooktop.

Tips For Using the Cooking Zones

• Be sure to use cooktop cookware made with a magnetic

base material.

• Use quality cooktop cookware with heavier bottoms for

better heat distribution, allowing for more even cooking

results.

Check that cookware bottom rests level on cooktop

surface. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make

good contact with the entire induction cooking zone

area. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the

bottom of the cookware (Figure 3).

Be sure cookware is properly balanced and does not tilt

from a heavy handle.

Be sure that the pan size matches the amount of food to

be prepared. The size and type of cookware used will

influence the setting needed for best cooking results.

Never let cookware boil dry. This may cause permanent

damage such as breakage, fusion, or marring that can

affect the cooktop.

Use cookware that meets the minimum and maximum

cookware size requirements for each cooking zone.

Figure 3: Checking the pan for flatness

Moving Cookware on a Smoothtop

It is recommended to always use heavier gauge high quality

cookware on the cooking zones. Even high quality

cookware can still scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide

cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic

glass smoothtop.

• Any cookware that has rough or dirty bottoms can

mark and scratch the ceramic glass surface. Always

start with clean cookware.

i .........

Figure 4: Do not slide pan

Sliding any type of cookware over the surface will scratch

the cooktop over time. Scratches will make cleaning the

ceramic cooktop difficult and degrade the appearance of

the cooktop.

See "Care and Cleaning" beginning on page 37 for more

detailed information about the cooktop.

Pan Sensing

The cooking zone sensors located below the cooktop

surface require that certain cookware conditions are met

before the induction cooking zones can operate.

The cooking zone display windows may display a pan

sensing error message. If a cooking zone is activated and

no cookware is detected, the affected induction cooking

zone display window will flash with the last power level

request setting (Figure 5). If the cookware does not meet

the correct conditions, the cooking zones may not heat.

iFS i

Figure 5: Power boost power level setting

A flashing error message as illustrated in Figure 5 can be

generated by those conditions. Use Figure 6 as a guide to

help to correct the problem or problems before attempting

to reactivate any of the cooking zones.

If the problem or problems are not corrected, the affected

cooking zone will automatically deactivate after 3 minutes.

Induction cooking zones require a minimum pan size in

order to activate. The graphics on each cooking zone

location are your guide to the correct minimum pan size for

that zone.The shorter lines guide the minimum pan

size.The longer lines guide the maximum pan size. The

cookware bottom must meet the minimum and maximum

area requirements for the heating process to begin. See

Figure 7 below for the pan size requirements for each

cooking zone location.

If a pan that is induction-capable is centered properly but is

too small, the affected cooking zone display will flash the

last power level setting and the pan will not heat. Select a

larger pan that meets the minimum size requirement to

activate the selected cooking zone.

Figure 7: Induction pan size requirements

Do not use pans with bottoms that extend more than 1/2"

(13mm) beyond any of the longer line marks provided on

the cooktop. The cookware must make full contact with the

ceramic glass surface. Cookware should not rest on or

touch the metal edges of the cooktop.

The type and size of cookware, cooking duration, number of

cooking zones in use and their power level settings are all

factors that affect the amount of heat that will spread

beyond the cooking zones. Induction cooking zones and

areas surrounding the cooking zones may become hot

enough to cause burns. Be sure to read all cautions.

Hot Cookware and Residual Heat

Unlike radiant surface elements, induction cooking zones

do not glow red when hot. The glass surface may be hot

from residual heat transferred from the cookware and

burns may occur. Do not touch hot cookware or pans

directly with hands. Always use oven mitts or potholders

to protect hands from burns.

Home Canning

Canning can generate large amounts of steam. Use

extreme caution to prevent burns. Raise the lid to vent

steam away from you. Safe canning requires that harmful

micro-organisms are destroyed and jars seal completely.

When canning in a water bath canner, continuously

maintain a gentle but steady boil for the required time. !:

Be sure to read and observe the following points when

home canning with your appliance.

Check with the United States Department of Agriculture

(USDA) website. Be sure to read all the available informa-

tion as well as follow the recommendations for home

canning procedures.

• Use only quality flat bottom canners when home

canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges

that radiate from the bottom center when home canning

using a range with a ceramic glass cooktop.

Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed

1 inch beyond the cooking zone markings. It is recom-

mended to use smaller diameter canners on ranges

with ceramic glass or open coil electric cooktops.

Start with hot tap water to boil more quickly. Use the

highest heat setting when first bringing the water to a

boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest

possible setting to maintain that boil.

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

• Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high

heat for extended amounts of time.

• Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the

units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to

avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

Cooktop Display Windows

The range backguard provides a digital window for each

cooking zone on the cooktop. Power levels and messages

are monitored and controlled using the window displays in

combination with the corresponding control knobs.

Available Power Level Settings

The cooktop control (Figure 8) displays power levels

ranging from Lo to Hi to Pb (Figure 9) in a display window

located above each control dial. The settings range is

between 1.5 and 9.5 (Figure 10), adjustable in 0.5 incre-

ments.

Use the suggested cooking zone power level settings table"

on page 13 to determine the correct power level setting for

the type of food you are preparing.

Power Boost (Pb) Power Level

When setting an induction cooking zone for Hi, the display

will initially show Pb power level for up to 10 minutes

(Figure 9). After 10 minutes the cooking zone will automati-

cally return to the Hi setting. The Pb setting is only available

immediately after activating a cooking zone by turning the

knob to Hi.

Hot Element (HE) Surface Window Message

When using a cooking zone, the cooktop may become very

hot. After turning any cooking zone off, the cooktop may

remain hot for some time. The corresponding HE

(Figure 11) message displays until the cooktop has cooled.

ESEC Error Indicator Message (Er)

An error message will display flashing Er (Figure 12) at

power up or after a power failure for any surface control

knob not in the OFF position. If a power failure should

occur, set all surface control knobs to OFF (Figure 8). This

will reset the surface controls.

Also, reset the clock (page 20). Once the surface controls

have been set to off 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 service provider for

assistance.

Feature" on page 22 for more details.

Figure 13: ESEC error Indication

Induction cooking zones will not operate when the oven is

set for Sabbath mode. For more details on the Sabbath

feature, see "Setting the Sabbath Feature" on page 32.

Operating Induction Cooking Zones

Start most surface cooking on a higher setting and then

adjust to a lower setting to finish cooking.

The suggested settings provided in the table below may

vary slightly, depending on the cookware design, quality

and amount of food being prepared.

Be sure to use quality cookware that is constructed with

magnetic base material and meets the minimum and

maximum pan size requirements.

Pan Preheat Recommendations

Be aware that induction cooking may decrease the amount

of time required to preheat a cooking utensil compared to

cooking on a radiant element cooktop or gas surface

burner.

Whenever using the cooktop or oven always pay close

attention to all food items cooking and remain very attentive

until all the cooking processes are complete.

To operate induction cooking zones:

Table 1: Suggested power level settings

The suggested power level settings are based on

cooking with medium sized pans with lids. Be sure to

make any further setting adjustments needed for best

surface cooking results.

• The size and type of utensil used, and the amount

and type of food being cooked will influence the

setting needed for best cooking results.

Remember that induction surface cooking will initially

heat the cooking utensil very quickly.

Place induction cookware on the desired cooking zone.

To activate a cooking zone, push in and turn the control

knob in either direction to the desired setting.

Adjust the power level by turning the knob. This will

increase or decrease the power level in 0.5 increments

from 1.5 to 9.5. Lo is the lowest power level available.

Once cooking is complete, turn the control knob off and

remove cookware.

Cooktop Operational Noises

The electronic processes involved with induction cooking

may create some background noises. You may hear a slight

"buzzing" sound when cooking on the cooktop.

These noises are part of the induction cooking process are

considered normal.

Some cookware will "buzz" depending on the construction

or base material. The buzz may be more noticeable if the

contents of the pan are cold. As the pan heats up, the noise

will decrease. The noise will also decrease if the power

level setting is reduced.

When using the induction cooktop, operational noises are

more noticeable while cooking at the power boost level.

Very loud noises are not part of normal induction cooking.

Warmer Zone

Food Poisoning Hazard. Do not let food sit for more than

1 hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food i

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.

The purpose of the warmer zone is to keep foods (vegeta-

bles, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries

and oven-safe dinner plates) at serving temperature

(Figure 14).

m m

Figure 14: Warmer zone cooktop location

Always start with hot food. Do not heat cold food on the

warmer zone. All food placed on the warmer zone should

be covered with a lid 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 remove.

Use only dishware, utensils and cookware recom-

mended for oven and cooktop use.

Unlike radiant surface elements, induction cooking

zones will not glow red when they are hot. The glass

surface may be hot from residual heat transferred

from the cookware and burns may occur.

• Do not touch hot cookware or pans directly with

hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to

protect hands from burns.

• The cooking zones may appear to have cooled after

they have been turned off. The glass surface may still

be hot from residual heat and burns may occur if the

cooktop is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

• 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 if placed too close to hot cookware. !i

The hot element (liE) message will appear in the

display windows once a heating element or cooking !i

zone is turned off and will remain on until the heating

surface area or areas have cooled sufficiently.

Do not allow aluminum foil, or any material that can

melt to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop.

If these items melt on the cooktop they may damage

the ceramic cooktop.

• If the cookware is moved from the center of any active

induction cooking zone, the pan sensor will detect the

situation and the cookware will no longer heat. The

affected cooking zone display window will flash until

the cookware is moved back to center of cooking

zone.

• If the cookware is placed back properly centered on !;

the cooking zone, the zone will resume heating. The il

cooking zone will remember the power level setting

for up to 3 minutes before the cooking zone will auto-

matically shut off. :i

may still be hot and burns may occur if the glass

surface is touched before it has cooled.

• Do not place flammable items such as plastic 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.

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located under the control panel. When the

oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting

is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good

baking results. Do not block the oven vent.

Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is

normal.

Arranging, Removing, and Replacing Racks

Completely remove all oven racks and any cooking

accessories from the oven before performing a self clean i:

function in order to avoid damage to the racks. If oven

racks are not removed before a self clean, they will lose

their special coating and will no longer slide in and out of

the oven cavity effortlessly.

Figure 17: Oven rack types

Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be

used for most cooking needs and may be placed in

most oven rack positions.

The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional

stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design.

The offset design positions the base of the rack about a

half rack position lower than the flat rack and may be

used in most oven rack positions.

The bottom oven rack (some models) allows you to

maximize oven cooking space by using the lowest rack

position for baking or roasting large cuts of meat.

' TM

The 'Effortless Oven Rack System" (some models) is

described on page 17.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the

oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, oven

racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause :_i

burns.Remove all racks and accessories prior to starting

a self clean cycle. :i

To arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the

oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).

To remove - 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.

Effortless TMOven Rack System

Remove all oven racks and accessories before starting a

self clean cycle. If the oven racks are left in the oven

during the self clean cycle, the gliding ability of the Effort-

less TMOven Rack system will be damaged, and oven

racks will loose their shiny finish and may turn blue.

Remove all oven racks and clean according to instruc-

tions provided in "Care and Cleaning" beginning on

page 37.

Make sure the oven and oven racks are completely cool

before attempting to assemble or disassemble the Effort-

less TMOven Rack system. Never pick up hot oven racks

or parts.

The Effortless TMOven Rack system can be used in oven

rack positions 1, 2, or 3 (Figure 19, below). Placing any

oven rack in any other position will prevent the oven door _

from fully closing and may damage the oven door, oven !

cavity, or the door connector brackets, il

Do not attempt to use the Effortless TMOven rack in rack i::

positions 4 or 5. i!

Some models are equipped with a special oven rack

system that automatically extends the oven rack to assist in

access to your food items. This rack extends when the oven

door is opened or closed (Figure 18 below).

Convection Cooking

Convection baking uses the three elements and a fan to

circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven

(Figure 27). The improved heat distribution allows for even

cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack baking may

slightly increase cook time for some foods, but the overall

result is time saved. Some food may cook faster and more

evenly with convection bake.

Benefits of convection cooking:

• Multiple rack baking.

• Some foods cook faster, saving time and energy.

• No special pans or bakeware needed.

Figure 27: Air circulation in convection function

Setting Convection Bake

This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results

when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven can be

programmed for convection baking at any temperature

between 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C) with a default

temperature of 350°F (177°C).

To set the oven for convection bake and temperature to

375°F (190°C):

Convection baking tips:

• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,

cakes, biscuits, and breads. Use convection baking for

best results.

When using any single rack, position the rack so that

the food is in the center of the oven. When baking using

two oven racks, position cookware as shown in

Figure 29. Allow at least 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm)

space between cookware for proper air circulation.

For best results when baking cakes using two oven

racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (Figure 28).

Bake cookies and biscuits on pans with no (or very low)

sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food.

Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny

bakeware. You may reduce oven temperature and cook

time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark

bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is

recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.

Do not open the oven door often. Doing so will reduce

oven temperature and may increase cooking time.

numeric keypad.

11. Press start.

When a delayed baking function starts, the set oven

temperature will appear. Belay, bake, and the current time

of day will appear in the display. When the desired start time

is reached, the actual oven temperature will appear in the

display and delay disappears. Oven starts to bake at the

previously selected temperature.

Keep Warm

Warm is best for keeping oven baked foods warm for

serving after cooking has finished. Keep warm turns on the

warm feature, will maintain an oven temperature of 170°F

(77°C), and will keep oven baked foods warm for serving up

to 3 hours after cooking.

After 3 hours, keep warm will shut the oven off. The feature

may be used without any other cooking operations or can

be set to turn on automatically after a bake time or delay

start.

Keep Warm tips:

• Always start with hot food. Do not use keep warm to

heat cold food.

Food in heat-safe glass and glass ceramic containers

may need higher temperature settings compared to

food in regular containers.

Do not open the oven door too often, it will allow hot air

to escape and the food to cool.

Aluminum foil may be used to cover food to increase

moisture content.

To set keep warm:

1. Arrange interior oven racks and place food in the oven.

2. Press keep warm. "HLd" will appear in the display.

3. Press start. If start is not touched within 25 seconds

the request to activate keep warm will be canceled.

4. To cancel keep warm at any time, press off.

To set keep warm to turn on automatically:

Arrange interior oven racks and place food in the oven.

Set the oven properly for bake time or delay start.

Press keep warm. If no key is touched within 25

seconds, the request to turn on the warm feature will be

cancelled.

3. Press start. HLd will disappear and the temperature will

be displayed. Keep warm is set to turn on automatically

after timed bake has finished.

Setting Broil

Use the broil feature to cook meats requiring direct

exposure to radiant heat for optimum browning results. The

broil pan and insert used together allow grease to drain

away from the high heat of the oven broiler.

Note: If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied, they may

be purchased online from http://www.frigidaire.com. An

optional searing grill is also available.

To set broil at 500°F (260°C):

Should an oven fire occur, keep oven door closed and

turn off the oven. If the 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.

Use potholders or oven mitts when using a hot oven.

When broiling, the oven interior, racks and cooktop will

become hot enough to cause burns. Do not use the pan

without the insert. Do not cover the broil pan or insert with

aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite.

Table 4: Broiling Recommendations

1. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan

on the rack. Center the broiler pan directly under the

broiler element and close the oven door.

Figure 30: Rack positions (L); Broil pan and insert (R)

Press broil. 5 5 0° will appear in the display. If a lower

temperature is desired, press the desired temperature

before continuing. The minimum broil temperature

setting is 400°F(204°C).

Press start. The oven will begin to broil. 5 0 0° will

appear in the display. Broil with the oven door closed.

Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook on

the second side. Pull the rack out to the stop position

before turning or removing food.

5. To stop or cancel the broil function, press off.

Broiling tips:

• Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce smoke. If

smoke is excessive, place food further away from the

broil element.

• Preheat for 5 minutes before broiling. If using a searing

grill, first preheat oven for 5 to 10 minutes.

** The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, "Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organ-

isms may survive." (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for

medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77°C).

Setting Convection Broil

Use this mode for thicker cuts of meat, fish, and poultry. The

convection broiling gently browns the exterior and seals in

the juices. Convection broiling uses the broil element and a

fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously

within the oven. The oven can be programmed for convec-

tion broiling at any temperature between 400°F to 550°F

(204°C to 288°C) with a default temperature of 550°F

(288°C). See Table 4.

To set a convection broil temperature of 500°F (260°C):

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.

1. Arrange oven racks first. Press convect; 350 ° will be

displayed, and convect and bake will flash.

2. Press convect two more times; 550° will be displayed

and convect and broil will flash.

3. Press 5 0 0.

4. Press start. CONVECT, BROIL, 500 °, and the fan icon

will be displayed.

5. After 5 minutes of preheat, place food in the oven.

The preheat tone will not sound for this feature.

Convection broiling tips:

• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 5

minutes.

Always pull the rack out to the stop position before

turning or removing food.

Always use a broiler pan and insert when broiling. It

keeps grease away from the high heat of the broil

element.

Do not use a broil pan without the insert. Do not cover

an insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.

If using a searing grill (available by mail order), preheat

the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing your meat.

Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook

on the second side. Season and serve.

• Convection broiling is generally faster than conventional

broiling. Check for doneness at the minimum recom-

mended time.

Setting Convection Roast

This mode is best for cooking tender cuts of beef, lamb,

pork, and poultry. Use this mode when cooking speed is

desired. Convection roasting gently browns the exterior and

seals in the juices. Convection roasting uses the bake

element, convection element, broil element, and fan to

circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven.

The oven can be programmed for convection roasting at

any temperature between 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C)

with a default temperature of 350°F (177°C).

To set a convection roast temperature of 375°F:

Should an oven fire occur, close oven door and turn off

the oven. If the 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.

1. Arrange oven racks and place food in the oven.

2. Press convect; 350° will be displayed; Convect and

bake will flash.

3. Press convect again. 350° will be displayed, and

convect and roast will flash.

Enter 3 7 5 using the number keys.

Press start; The actual oven temperature will be

displayed. Convect, roast, and the fan icon will be

displayed. The bake, broil, and convection elements will

also cycle for a better heat distribution.

Convection roasting tips:

Use a broiler pan and insert, as well as a roasting rack

(available online from http://www.frigidaire.com). The

broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the insert

will help prevent spatters. The roasting rack will hold the

meat.

It's not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting

rack. Use a deep pan instead.

Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the

insert in the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler pan

without the insert or cover the insert with aluminum foil.

• Pull the rack out to the stop position before removing

food. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.

Cooking with Meat Probe

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking ,,_

foods such as roasts, hams or poultry, probe

For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check

internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly

cooked food.

When set correctly, the probe feature will signal an alert

when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set

target temperature.

When active, the probe displays the internal food tempera-

ture 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.

probe

To properly place the probe:

Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the

center of the thickest part of meat or food (Figure 32).

For best results, do not allow the probe temperature

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

I 1/2

Figure 32: 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 (Figure 33).

Figure 31: Using the probe

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 Figure 31.

To avoid the possibility of burns after cooking with the

probe, use care when disconnecting the probe from

the receptacle or food. The probe may be hot. Be

sure to always use a pot holder to protect your hands.

Before starting self clean, verify that the probe is

removed from the oven interior. The high tempera-

tures during self clean may damage or destroy the

probe.

iiiiiiiii

• To avoid damaging the probe, defrost frozen foods

completely before inserting.

Figure 33: Probe in thickest part of breast

Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only the

original probe provided.

Before starting self clean, double check that the probe

is removed from the oven interior.

• Use only the original probe provided with this appli-

ance. Connecting any other probe or device into the

probe receptacle could result in damage to the oven

control, electronics and the receptacle. .....

To connect the probe to the oven:

1. Insert the probe into the food.

2. Place prepared food on the desired oven rack position

and slide into the oven.

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 top left front of the oven cavity

(Figure 34).

To set how the oven will operate once the probe

reaches the target temperature:

The oven will automatically stop cooking and start keep

warm when probe sensor reaches the target temperature.

This may be set to continue cooking if desired. Setting the

options once the probe reaches the target temperature

must be done when the oven is inactive. The probe does

not need to be connected to the receptacle when setting

this option.

PROBE TOO HOT Message:

When the message PROB... TOO... HOT... flashes in the

display, the probe temperature has exceeded 250°F

(121°C). If the probe is not removed, this message may

continue until the sensor reaches 300°F (149°C) or higher.

At this point the oven will automatically turn off. Be sure the

probe sensor is fully covered by the food.

To set the oven to continue cooking after reaching the

target temperature:

1. Press probe key and hold for 6 seconds.

2. Press self clean key and toggle until Continu appears,

as shown below, then press start to accept.

To set the oven to automatically stop cooking and start

warm once reaching target temperature:

1. Press and hold the probe key for 6 seconds.

2. Press the self clean key and toggle until CANCEL

appears, as shown below, then press start to accept.

During cooking the internal food temperature will display

by default. To see the target temperature press the

probe key once. After 6 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)

The bake time and start keys are used to

set the Sabbath feature.

For further assistance, guidelines for

proper usage, and a complete list of

models with the Sabbath feature, please

visit the web at http:\\www.star-k.org.

Bake time and delay start pressed together set the

Sabbath feature.The Sabbath feature may only be used

with the bake function. Once the oven is properly set using

bake with the Sabbath feature active, the oven will remain

on until cancelled. The Sabbath feature overrides the

factory preset 12 hour energy saving feature.

If the oven light is needed during the Sabbath, press \/=

before activating the Sabbath feature. Once the oven light

is turned on and the Sabbath feature is active, the oven

light will remain on until the Sabbath feature is turned off. If

the oven light needs to be off, turn the oven light off before

activating the Sabbath feature.

Press and hold both bake time and delay start for at

least 3 seconds. SAb will appear in the display. Once

SAb appears in the display, the oven control will no

longer beep or display any further changes, and the

oven is properly set for the Sabbath feature.

The oven may be turned off at any time by first pressing

off (this will turn the oven off only).

To turn off the Sabbath feature, press and hold both the

bake time and delay start keys for at least 3 seconds.

SAb will disappear from the display.

Food Poisoning Hazard. Do not let food sit for more than

1 hour before or after cooking. Doing so may result in

food borne illness. 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.

It is advised to not activate any cooking function other

than bake while the Sabbath feature is active. The oven

lights, start time and end time may only be set before

entering the Sabbath mode.

To program the oven to begin baking immediately and

activate the Sabbath feature (example: baking at

350°F):

1. Be sure that the clock is set with the correct time of day.

2. Place the food in the oven.

3. Press bake. The display shows 3 5 0°.

4. Press start. The actual oven temperature appears in

the display.

If setting the oven control for a bake or delayed bake

time, do so here. If not, skip this step and continue to

i Step 4. For "Setting, Delay Start", see page 26. For

'Setting Bake Time , see page 25. Remember the oven

i will turn off after using bake time or delay start and may

only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish holidays.

The maximum bake time is 5 hours and 59 minutes.

5. The oven will turn on and begin heating.

• The cooktop is locked during the Sabbath mode.

You may change the oven temperature once baking

starts by pressing bake and the number keys for the

new temperature. For example, to change from

350°F to 425°F, press 4 2 5. Then, press start twice.

Only the numeric keypad, bake, start, and off controls

will function after setting the Sabbath feature. All

other features will not function once the Sabbath

feature is properly activated. The display will not

show temperature changes or sound any audible

tones when the oven is set with the Sabbath feature.

If power fails while using the Sabbath feature:

Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the

oven will shut off. When power is returned, SF (Sabbath

Failure) will be displayed, and the oven will not turn back on

automatically. If your food was nearly fully cooked, you may

allow the trapped heat in the oven to finish the cooking

process. Otherwise, you should remove the food when the

power failure occurs because you may only start the oven

once during the Sabbath/Jewish holidays.

To turn off the Sabbath feature:

Press and hold both the bake time and delay start keys for

at least 3 seconds. SAb will disappear from the display and

the oven and cooktop may again be used with all normal

functions.

Adjusting Oven Temperature

The temperature in the oven is preset at the factory. When

first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and

temperatures. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too

cool for the temperature you select, you can adjust the

actual oven temperature to be more or less than what is

displayed. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a

temperature setting higher or lower than the recommended

temperature. The baking results should help you to decide

how much of an adjustment is needed.

To adjust the oven temperature higher:

1. Press and hold bake for 6 seconds. UPO 0 will appear

in the display.

To increase the temperature, use the number keys to

enter the desired change. For example, for 30°F, press

3 0. The temperature may be increased as much as

35°F (19°C).

3. Press start to accept the temperature change and the

display will return to the time of day. Press off to reject

the change if necessary.

To adjust the oven temperature lower:

1. Press bake for 6 seconds. UPO 0 will appear in the

display.

To decrease the temperature, use the number keys to

enter the desired change (Example -30°F) 3 0. Then,

press self clean. The temperature may be decreased

as much as 35°F (19°C).

3. Press start to accept the temperature change and the

display will return to the time of day. Press off to reject

the change if necessary.

Restoring Factory Default Setting

Your appliance is programmed with default control settings.

Over time, users may make changes to these settings. The

following options have settings that can be modified and

may have been changed since the appliance was new:

• 12 or 24 hour display mode

• Continuous bake or 12 hour energy savings mode

• Silent or audible control

• Oven temperature display (F or C)

• Oven temperature adjustments (offsets)

• Stored recipes

• Cancel or continue cooking with meat probe option

If you choose to restore factory default settings, all of the

above user preferences will be restored to their original

settings (factory default). The oven temperature adjust-

ment will reset and any stored recipes will be cleared.

To restore oven control to factory default settings:

1. When the oven is in idle and no cooking function is in

operation, press and hold the 7 key until the acceptance

tone sounds (about 6 seconds).

2. Press start. The control is now reset to default settings.

Oven temperature adjustments made with this feature

will not change the broil or self clean cycle temperatures.

The oven temperature adjustments are permanent and

will stay in the unit memory unless manually changed or

if all the controls are reset. Even a power outage will not

reset these changes. Follow the same procedure again if

you wish to change it to a different setting or use these

instructions to restore default settings.

Do not use oven thermometers like those found in

grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside

the oven. They may display readings that vary greatly

from the actual temperature.

Steam Clean

The steam clean feature offers a chemical free and time-

saving method to assist in the routine cleaning of your oven.

Steam clean may be used before manually cleaning the

oven to help loosen soils on the oven bottom.

Do not add ammonia, oven cleaners, or any other

household cleaners or chemicals to the water used in the

steam clean cycle.

Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be sure

all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. The oven

may be hot and can cause burns.

Press start.

Steam clean is a 20 minute cycle. The display will show

the time remaining.

An alert will sound at the end of the cycle, and the End

message will show in the display. Press off to return to

the clock.

When the steam clean cycle is complete, stand to the

side of the oven out of the way of escaping vapor when

opening the oven door. The cycle includes a cool-down

period, so you may immediately use a soft cloth or

sponge to remove any remaining water.

Wipe oven cavity and bottom. Do not clean oven door

gasket (Figure 38).

To set a steam clean cycle:

Oven should be at room temperature. If the oven tem-

perature is above the room temperature, steam clean

will not start. Be sure the oven is cool. Remove all racks

and oven accessories.

2. Scrape or wipe loose debris from the oven bottom.

3. Pour 8 oz (227 ml) distilled or filtered water onto the

oven bottom (Figure 36). Close the oven door.

Figure 36: Add 8 ounces of distilled water

4. Press steam clean. StCn will show in the display

(Figure 37).

Figure 37: Steam clean selected

Figure 38: Clean around the oven door gasket

For best results, clean oven immediately after the cycle is

complete. Steam clean works best for soils on the oven

bottom. Removal of especially stubborn or baked-on soils

may require a manual cleaning. See "Cleaning Various

Parts of Your Oven" on page 37.

Some condensation or water vapor may appear close to the

oven vent. This is normal. The oven gasket may become

damp; do not wipe dry. Open door about 10° and allow to air

dry.

Local water sources often contain minerals (hard water)

and will leave deposits on the oven cavity. If this occurs,

wipe cavity with vinegar or lemon juice. Use distilled or

filtered water.

If the door is opened during the steam clean cycle, a beep

will sound and d-0 will show in the display. Close the oven

door. Keep oven door closed during steam clean cycle.

Steam clean cannot be programmed with a delay start. If

steam clean results are not satisfactory, run a self clean.

See "Self Cleaning Operation"on page 35.

Self Cleaning Operation

A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures

that are well above normal cooking temperatures. These

temperatures eliminate soils completely or reduce them to a

fine powdered ash that can be wiped away with a damp

cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

Completely remove all oven racks and any cooking

accessories from the oven to avoid damage to the

racks. If oven racks are not removed before a self

clean, they will lose their special coating and will no

longer slide in and out of the oven cavity effortlessly.

Remove all items from the oven and cooktop

including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil.

Aluminum foil will not withstand the high self clean

temperatures.

Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other

parts of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will

alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results

and may cause permanent damage to the oven

interior. During self clean temperatures the oven will

be hot enough to melt foil.

• Do not spray oven cleaners or protective coatings in

or around any part of the oven interior.

Clean any soil from the oven frame, door liner outside

the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front

center of the oven bottom with soap and water. These

areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on.

Remove any excessive spills from the oven cavity

before starting the self cleaning cycle. To clean, use

hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause

heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high tempera-

tures.

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid

content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie

filling, etc.) to remain on surfaces. They may leave a

dull spot even after cleaning.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket. Take care not to

rub, damage, or remove the gasket or use any

cleaning substances on the oven door gasket

(Figure 38). Doing so could cause damage and

reduce the efficiency of the oven's performance.

Do not leave small children unattended near the

appliance. During self clean, the range may become

very hot to the touch.

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 if

these elements are touched before they have cooled.

Use caution when opening the door after the self

cleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be

very hot. Stand to the side of the oven door when

opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

Do not force the oven door open when self clean is i

active. This can damage the automatic door locking

system. Use caution when opening the door after self

clean cycle is complete; the oven may still be very

hot.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the

fumes given off during the self cleaning cycle of any

oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

What to Expect During Self Clean

When the oven is set to run a self clean cycle, the motor

door lock will begin locking the oven door. Do not open the

oven door while the lock motor is running or when any

locking indicators or displays are showing. The oven door is

completely locked in about 15 seconds.

While in self clean mode, the oven heats to temperatures

much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of

metal expansion and contraction are normal.

Odors are normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke

may appear through the oven vent.

If heavy spills are not wiped up before cleaning, they may

flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is

normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available,

use an exhaust fan during the self cleaning cycle.

Setting Self Clean Cycle Duration

The self clean key controls the self cleaning feature. If you

plan to use the oven directly after a self clean cycle, allow

time for the oven to cool and the oven door to unlock. This

normally takes about one hour. A 3 hour self clean cycle will

actually take about 4 hours to complete.

The automatic timer will turn the oven on and off at the time

you select in advance.

It is recommended to use a 2 hour self clean cycle for light

soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for

heavy soils.

To set the controls for a 3 hour self cleaning cycle to

start immediately and shut off automatically:

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day and

the oven door is closed.

Press self clean. CLn and 3:00 HR will show in the

display. The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour

period (default self cleaning cycle time). If a 2 or 4 hour

clean time is desired, press self clean multiple times to

toggle between 2, 3, or 4 hours.

Press start, door Loc will appear, a beep will sound,

and the word DOOR and the I_1icon will flash; CLn will

remain on in the display.

As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven

door lock will begin to close automatically. Once the

door is locked, the DOOR indicator light and _ will stop

flashing and remain on, and the oven icon will appear in

the display. Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door to

lock completely.

When the self clean cycle is completed:

1. The oven will beep 3 times and HOT will appear in the

display. The time of day, the word DOOR, and the I_

icon will remain in the display.

Once the oven has cooled for approximately 1 hour,

door OPn will appear, and the word DOOR and the t_l

icon will flash until the door unlocks. The door can be

opened, and the clock display will show the time of day.

To stop or Interrupt a self cleaning cycle:

1. Press off.

The oven door can only be opened after the oven has

cooled down for about 1 HOUR. door OPn will appear,

and the word DOOR and the I_1icon will flash until the

door is unlocked. The oven door can then be opened,

and the clock display will revert back to the time of day.

Delay Start Self Clean

To set the control for delayed self clean (example: 3

hour self clean cycle to start at 4:30):

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day and

the oven door is closed.

Press self clean. CLn and 3:00 HR will show in the

display. The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour

period. If a 2 or 4 hour clean time is desired, press self

time, the icon DELAY will go out; CLn and oven icon

will appear in the display.

When the self clean cycle is completed:

The oven will beep 3 times and HOT will appear in the

display. The time of day, the word DOOR, and the lock

icon will remain in the display.

When the oven cools after approximately 1 hour, door

OPn will appear in the display and the word DOOR and

the _ icon will flash until the door is unlocked. The

oven door can then be opened, and the clock display

will return to the time of day.

To avoid possible burns, use care when opening the oven

door after the self cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of the _

oven when opening the door to allow hot steam and air to

escape.

This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use

caution when opening the door after self clean cycle is

complete; the oven may still be very hot.

Cleaning Various Parts of Your Oven

Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the range is cool. Remove spills and any

heavy soiling as soon as possible.

Surface Type Recommendation

Painted and plastic control knobs

Painted body parts

Painted decorative trims

Aluminum, Plastic, and Vinyl trim

For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and

built-up grease, apply liquid detergent directly onto soil and let soak for 30-60

minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners on these

surfaces; they can scratch.

Control panel

Control keypad membrane

Control panel trim

Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls off, activate control lock (some

models) and if needed remove knobs from panel (some models). Do not use

abrasive cleaners on controls or trim; they can scratch.

Clean using hot, soapy water and a cloth or sponge. Be sure to squeeze excess

water before wiping control panel; especially when wiping around the controls area.

Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. When

rinsing, use clean water and a cloth or sponge and be sure to squeeze excess water

before wiping the control panel.

Stainless Steel (some models) Clean stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with

clean water and dry with soft clean cloth. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only

use kitchen cleaners especially made for cleaning stainless steel. Rinse cleaners

from the surface as bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.

Smudge Proof TM Stainless Steel

(some models)

Your oven finish may be Smudge Proof TM Stainless Steel (some models). Clean the

stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth, or a 50/50 solution of

water and vinegar. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use

store bought cleaners like stainless steel cleaners or any other types of cleaners

containing any abrasive, chlorides, chlorine, or ammonia.

Porcelain enamel parts

Porcelain enamel broiler pan and

insert (available by mail order)

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1

solution of clear water and ammonia. Cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked

paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and damp cloth. Scrub with

a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all

cleaners or porcelain may become damaged during future heating.

Ceramic Cooktop Refer to "Cooktop Cleaning" and "Cooktop Maintenance" on page 38.

3 7

Oven interior Remove excessive spills from oven cavity bottom before starting self clean. Clean

any soils from oven frame and door liner outside the oven door gasket.

Oven racks Oven racks must be removed from oven cavity. Clean by using a mild, abrasive

cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.

Oven door Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door.

Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. Do

not immerse the door in water. Do not spray or allow water or glass cleaner to enter

the door vents. Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive

cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.

Do not clean the oven door gasket. On self cleaning models the oven door gasket is

made of a woven material which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken

not to rub, damage or remove this gasket.

Cooktop Maintenance Cooktop Cleaning

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining

your ceramic glass cooktop.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply some of

the glass-ceramic cooktop cleaner supplied with your new

appliance. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or 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 metal 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 ceramic-coated)

with rough or dirty bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop

surface.

Do not:

• slide anything across the cooktop (Figure 39).

• use cookware with dirt or dirt build-up on bottom;

replace with clean cookware before using.

• use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in

the kitchen.

• drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass

cooktop; they may cause it to crack.

Figure 39:

\ , z

Do not slide pan

Before cleaning the cooktop, be sure the controls are

turned to off and the cooktop is cool.

For light to moderate soil:

Apply a few drops of glass-ceramic cooktop cleaner directly

to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or use a non-abrasive

plastic type 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 glass-ceramic cooktop cleaner directly

to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive

plastic type 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 (Figure 40). Remove loosened soils with cooktop

cleaning cream and buff surface clean.

30 °

Figure 40: Cooktop cleaning

Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:

These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled

or melted onto the 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 cooktop to cool,

and use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.

Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if using

an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning

products specifically designed for ceramic glass

cooktops.

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

Protective liners--Do not use oven bottom liners or use

aluminum foil to cover the oven racks. Do not use aluminum

foil to line the oven bottom, except as suggested in the

manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in a

risk of electrical shock, or fire. Using a foil liner in the oven

restricts the heat and air flow needed to obtain the best

possible cooking results.

During self clean the oven temperature can become hot

enough to melt aluminum cooking utensils or aluminum foil

if left in the oven. This could result in permanent damage to

the oven interior and porcelain finish.

Broiler Pan Cleaning Tips

To make cleaning easier, line the bottom of the broiler pan

with aluminum foil. Do not cover the insert with foil. To

prevent grease from baking on, remove the broiler pan from

the oven as soon as cooking is completed. Use hot pads

because the broiler pan is extremely hot. Pour off grease.

Soak the pan in hot, soapy water. Clean the broiler pan as

soon as possible after each use. If necessary, use soap-

filled steel wool pads. Heavy scouring may scratch the

insert.

Replacing the Oven Light

The interior oven lights are located at the rear of the oven

cavity and are protected by glass shields. The shields must

be in place whenever the oven is in use (See Figure 42).

Replacing the oven interior light bulb:

Disconnect electrical power at the main source or

unplug the appliance.

Remove any/all oven racks that hinder access to the

oven lights.

Remove interior oven light shield by turning a quarter

turn.

4. Pull the bulb straight out.

5. Replace defective bulb with a new T-4 type Halogen 25

watt appliance bulb.

replacing. This will shorten the life of the bulb. Use a

paper towel or cotton glove while handling the new bulb.

6. Reinstall the oven light shield.

7. Reconnect power at the main source (or plug the

appliance back in).

8. Be sure to reset the time of day on the clock.

Important Instructions For Ceramic Glass

Cooktops

Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If the cooktop is

broken, cleaning solutions and spills may

penetrate the cooktop and create a risk of electric

shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

Exercise caution when cleaning the cooktop. If a

wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot

cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burns.

Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if

applied to a hot surface.

Important Instructions for Using your Cooktop

Know which knob or keypad controls each surface

cooking zone. Place pan with food on the cooking

zone before turning it on. Turn the cooking zone off

before removing the pan.

Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped

with induction cooking zones of different sizes.

Select utensils specifically manufactured or

approved for induction cooking. Pans should have

flat bottoms that match the induction cooking zone

size. Using the proper utensil on the cooking zone

will improve efficiency.

To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable

materials, and spills due to unintentional contact

with the cookware, turn utensil handles inward and

do not extend them over other cooking zones.

Never leave surface cooking zones unattended.

Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy spills

may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry could be

damaged and may damage the cooktop.

• When you are flaming foods under a ventilating

hood, turn on the fan.

Important Instructions for Using Your Oven

• Never use your appliance for warming or heating

the room.

Use care when opening oven door, lower oven

door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to

the side of the oven 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 clear. Touching surfaces in

this area when the oven is on may cause severe

burns. Do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items

on or near the oven vent. These items can melt or

ignite.

Placement of oven racks - Always place oven

racks in their desired locations while oven is cool.

If the rack must be moved while the oven is hot, do

not let potholder contact a hot heating element in

the oven. 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 cookware and utensils before moving

the rack.

Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broiler

pans and inserts allow dripping fat to drain 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

surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as

suggested in the manual. Improper installation of

these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or

fire.

• Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook

in proper cookware and always use the oven

racks.

Induction Cooking Zones

Your cooktop is equipped with four induction cooking zones

of different sizes and a radiant heat warmer zone (Figure 1).

Figure 1: Typical induction cooktop

Induction Cookware

Before using the induction cooking zones, be sure to

carefully read and follow these cookware recommenda-

tions and the instructions in the pan sensing section.

When purchasing pans for use on the induction cooktop,

look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer

as induction ready, induction capable, or a similar statement

by the manufacturer that the cookware is specifically

designed for induction cooking.

The cooking zones will not activate if the cookware is not

constructed with a base magnetic material. To check if the

cookware base material is suitable, use a magnet to test

(Figure 2). If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware,

the material type is correct.

Benefits of Induction Surface Cooking

Fast and efficient - Induction cooking zones heat faster and

use less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil

and they are efficient when simmering.

A cooler cooktop - A unique feature of the induction cooking

zones is, whether it is turned on or off, the cooking zones

remain cooler than radiant type elements. Virtually no

wasted heat is produced since the heat begins with the

presence of cookware.

Easy cleanups - The cooler cooking zones make cleanup

easier. Spills resist sticking or burning so they wipe up

easily.

Magnetic detector - The cooking zone has a sensor that

automatically detects whether cookware is magnetic. This

will reduce accidental "turn-ons."

Pan size detection - The pan size recognition sensor auto-

matically detects and adapts the induction cooking zones to

the pan sizes in use for consistent, more even cooking.

More responsive - Induction cooking zones are more

responsive than their electric or gas counterparts because

only the pan heats. This type of cooking heats easier and

will be just as responsive when reducing to a simmer.

Induction cooking directly heats the pan; heating will only

begin when cookware is properly placed on the cooking

zones.

Figure 2: Testing a pan for magnetic properties

For the best possible surface cooking results, it is recom-

mended to only use high quality heavy gauge cookware on

the induction cooking zones. Be sure to follow all the manu-

facturer's recommendations when using cookware made for

induction cooking.

Induction Cookware Types

The most common induction cookware types available are:

• Stainless steel - Generally excellent for induction

cooking. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast iron - Good for induction cooking. Cooks evenly.

Do not slide cast iron cookware on cooktop. Cast iron

cookware with a rough surface will scratch ceramic

cooktop.

Porcelain-enamel coated metals - Heating characteris-

tics will vary depending on quality of base material.

Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to avoid

scratching the ceramic cooktop.

Tips For Using the Cooking Zones

• Be sure to use cooktop cookware made with a magnetic

base material.

• Use quality cooktop cookware with heavier bottoms for

better heat distribution, allowing for more even cooking

results.

Check that cookware bottom rests level on cooktop

surface. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make

good contact with the entire induction cooking zone

area. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the

bottom of the cookware (Figure 3).

Be sure cookware is properly balanced and does not tilt

from a heavy handle.

Be sure that the pan size matches the amount of food to

be prepared. The size and type of cookware used will

influence the setting needed for best cooking results.

Never let cookware boil dry. This may cause permanent

damage such as breakage, fusion, or marring that can

affect the cooktop.

Use cookware that meets the minimum and maximum

cookware size requirements for each cooking zone.

Figure 3: Checking the pan for flatness

Moving Cookware on a Smoothtop

It is recommended to always use heavier gauge high quality

cookware on the cooking zones. Even high quality

cookware can still scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide

cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic

glass smoothtop.

• Any cookware that has rough or dirty bottoms can

mark and scratch the ceramic glass surface. Always

start with clean cookware.

i .........

Figure 4: Do not slide pan

Sliding any type of cookware over the surface will scratch

the cooktop over time. Scratches will make cleaning the

ceramic cooktop difficult and degrade the appearance of

the cooktop.

See "Care and Cleaning" beginning on page 37 for more

detailed information about the cooktop.

Pan Sensing

The cooking zone sensors located below the cooktop

surface require that certain cookware conditions are met

before the induction cooking zones can operate.

The cooking zone display windows may display a pan

sensing error message. If a cooking zone is activated and

no cookware is detected, the affected induction cooking

zone display window will flash with the last power level

request setting (Figure 5). If the cookware does not meet

the correct conditions, the cooking zones may not heat.

iFS i

Figure 5: Power boost power level setting

A flashing error message as illustrated in Figure 5 can be

generated by those conditions. Use Figure 6 as a guide to

help to correct the problem or problems before attempting

to reactivate any of the cooking zones.

If the problem or problems are not corrected, the affected

cooking zone will automatically deactivate after 3 minutes.

Figure 7: Induction pan size requirements

Do not use pans with bottoms that extend more than 1/2"

(13mm) beyond any of the longer line marks provided on

the cooktop. The cookware must make full contact with the

ceramic glass surface. Cookware should not rest on or

touch the metal edges of the cooktop.

The type and size of cookware, cooking duration, number of

cooking zones in use and their power level settings are all

factors that affect the amount of heat that will spread

beyond the cooking zones. Induction cooking zones and

areas surrounding the cooking zones may become hot

enough to cause burns. Be sure to read all cautions.

Hot Cookware and Residual Heat

Unlike radiant surface elements, induction cooking zones

do not glow red when hot. The glass surface may be hot

from residual heat transferred from the cookware and

burns may occur. Do not touch hot cookware or pans

directly with hands. Always use oven mitts or potholders

to protect hands from burns.

Home Canning

Canning can generate large amounts of steam. Use

extreme caution to prevent burns. Raise the lid to vent

steam away from you. Safe canning requires that harmful

micro-organisms are destroyed and jars seal completely.

When canning in a water bath canner, continuously

maintain a gentle but steady boil for the required time. !:

Be sure to read and observe the following points when

home canning with your appliance.

Check with the United States Department of Agriculture

(USDA) website. Be sure to read all the available informa-

tion as well as follow the recommendations for home

canning procedures.

• Use only quality flat bottom canners when home

canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges

that radiate from the bottom center when home canning

using a range with a ceramic glass cooktop.

Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed

1 inch beyond the cooking zone markings. It is recom-

mended to use smaller diameter canners on ranges

with ceramic glass or open coil electric cooktops.

Start with hot tap water to boil more quickly. Use the

highest heat setting when first bringing the water to a

boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest

possible setting to maintain that boil.

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

• Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high

heat for extended amounts of time.

• Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the

units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to

avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

Cooktop Display Windows

The range backguard provides a digital window for each

cooking zone on the cooktop. Power levels and messages

are monitored and controlled using the window displays in

combination with the corresponding control knobs.

Available Power Level Settings

The cooktop control (Figure 8) displays power levels

ranging from Lo to Hi to Pb (Figure 9) in a display window

located above each control dial. The settings range is

between 1.5 and 9.5 (Figure 10), adjustable in 0.5 incre-

ments.

Use the suggested cooking zone power level settings table"

on page 13 to determine the correct power level setting for

the type of food you are preparing.

Power Boost (Pb) Power Level

When setting an induction cooking zone for Hi, the display

will initially show Pb power level for up to 10 minutes

(Figure 9). After 10 minutes the cooking zone will automati-

cally return to the Hi setting. The Pb setting is only available

immediately after activating a cooking zone by turning the

knob to Hi.

Hot Element (HE) Surface Window Message

When using a cooking zone, the cooktop may become very

hot. After turning any cooking zone off, the cooktop may

remain hot for some time. The corresponding HE

(Figure 11) message displays until the cooktop has cooled.

ESEC Error Indicator Message (Er)

An error message will display flashing Er (Figure 12) at

power up or after a power failure for any surface control

knob not in the OFF position. If a power failure should

occur, set all surface control knobs to OFF (Figure 8). This

will reset the surface controls.

Also, reset the clock (page 20). Once the surface controls

have been set to off 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 service provider for

assistance.

Feature" on page 22 for more details.

Figure 13: ESEC error Indication

Induction cooking zones will not operate when the oven is

set for Sabbath mode. For more details on the Sabbath

feature, see "Setting the Sabbath Feature" on page 32.

Operating Induction Cooking Zones

Start most surface cooking on a higher setting and then

adjust to a lower setting to finish cooking.

The suggested settings provided in the table below may

vary slightly, depending on the cookware design, quality

and amount of food being prepared.

Be sure to use quality cookware that is constructed with

magnetic base material and meets the minimum and

maximum pan size requirements.

Pan Preheat Recommendations

Be aware that induction cooking may decrease the amount

of time required to preheat a cooking utensil compared to

cooking on a radiant element cooktop or gas surface

burner.

Whenever using the cooktop or oven always pay close

attention to all food items cooking and remain very attentive

until all the cooking processes are complete.

To operate induction cooking zones:

Table 1: Suggested power level settings

The suggested power level settings are based on

cooking with medium sized pans with lids. Be sure to

make any further setting adjustments needed for best

surface cooking results.

• The size and type of utensil used, and the amount

and type of food being cooked will influence the

setting needed for best cooking results.

Remember that induction surface cooking will initially

heat the cooking utensil very quickly.

Place induction cookware on the desired cooking zone.

To activate a cooking zone, push in and turn the control

knob in either direction to the desired setting.

Adjust the power level by turning the knob. This will

increase or decrease the power level in 0.5 increments

from 1.5 to 9.5. Lo is the lowest power level available.

Once cooking is complete, turn the control knob off and

remove cookware.

Cooktop Operational Noises

The electronic processes involved with induction cooking

may create some background noises. You may hear a slight

"buzzing" sound when cooking on the cooktop.

These noises are part of the induction cooking process are

considered normal.

Some cookware will "buzz" depending on the construction

or base material. The buzz may be more noticeable if the

contents of the pan are cold. As the pan heats up, the noise

will decrease. The noise will also decrease if the power

level setting is reduced.

When using the induction cooktop, operational noises are

more noticeable while cooking at the power boost level.

Very loud noises are not part of normal induction cooking.

Warmer Zone

Food Poisoning Hazard. Do not let food sit for more than

1 hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food i

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.

The purpose of the warmer zone is to keep foods (vegeta-

bles, gravies, casseroles, soups, stews, breads, pastries

and oven-safe dinner plates) at serving temperature

(Figure 14).

m m

Figure 14: Warmer zone cooktop location

Always start with hot food. Do not heat cold food on the

warmer zone. All food placed on the warmer zone should

be covered with a lid 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 remove.

Use only dishware, utensils and cookware recom-

mended for oven and cooktop use.

Unlike radiant surface elements, induction cooking

zones will not glow red when they are hot. The glass

surface may be hot from residual heat transferred

from the cookware and burns may occur.

• Do not touch hot cookware or pans directly with

hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to

protect hands from burns.

• The cooking zones may appear to have cooled after

they have been turned off. The glass surface may still

be hot from residual heat and burns may occur if the

cooktop is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

• 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 if placed too close to hot cookware. !i

The hot element (liE) message will appear in the

display windows once a heating element or cooking !i

zone is turned off and will remain on until the heating

surface area or areas have cooled sufficiently.

Do not allow aluminum foil, or any material that can

melt to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop.

If these items melt on the cooktop they may damage

the ceramic cooktop.

• If the cookware is moved from the center of any active

induction cooking zone, the pan sensor will detect the

situation and the cookware will no longer heat. The

affected cooking zone display window will flash until

the cookware is moved back to center of cooking

zone.

• If the cookware is placed back properly centered on !;

the cooking zone, the zone will resume heating. The il

cooking zone will remember the power level setting

for up to 3 minutes before the cooking zone will auto-

matically shut off. :i

Warmer Zone Temperature Selection

If a particular food is not listed (Table 2), start with the

medium heat level and adjust as needed (Figure 15). Most

will be hot.

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.

• Do not place flammable items such as plastic 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.

Oven Vent Location

The oven vent is located under the control panel. When the

oven is on, warm air passes through this vent. This venting

is necessary for proper air circulation in the oven and good

baking results. Do not block the oven vent.

Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is

normal.

Flat oven racks (or the flat handle oven rack) may be

used for most cooking needs and may be placed in

most oven rack positions.

The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional

stepdown positions from the standard flat rack design.

The offset design positions the base of the rack about a

half rack position lower than the flat rack and may be

used in most oven rack positions.

The bottom oven rack (some models) allows you to

maximize oven cooking space by using the lowest rack

position for baking or roasting large cuts of meat.

The 'Effortless Oven Rack System" (some models) is

described on page 17.

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the

oven. When cooking, the oven interior and exterior, oven

racks and cooktop will become very hot which can cause :_i

burns.Remove all racks and accessories prior to starting

a self clean cycle. :i

To arrange - Always arrange the oven racks when the

oven is cool (prior to operating the oven).

To remove - 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.

Effortless TMOven Rack System

Remove all oven racks and accessories before starting a

self clean cycle. If the oven racks are left in the oven

during the self clean cycle, the gliding ability of the Effort-

less TMOven Rack system will be damaged, and oven

racks will loose their shiny finish and may turn blue.

Remove all oven racks and clean according to instruc-

tions provided in "Care and Cleaning" beginning on

page 37.

Make sure the oven and oven racks are completely cool

before attempting to assemble or disassemble the Effort-

less TMOven Rack system. Never pick up hot oven racks

or parts.

The Effortless TMOven Rack system can be used in oven

rack positions 1, 2, or 3 (Figure 19, below). Placing any

oven rack in any other position will prevent the oven door _

from fully closing and may damage the oven door, oven !

cavity, or the door connector brackets, il

Do not attempt to use the Effortless TMOven rack in rack i::

positions 4 or 5. i!

Some models are equipped with a special oven rack

system that automatically extends the oven rack to assist in

access to your food items. This rack extends when the oven

door is opened or closed (Figure 18 below).

Convection Cooking

Convection baking uses the three elements and a fan to

circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven

(Figure 27). The improved heat distribution allows for even

cooking with excellent results. Multiple rack baking may

slightly increase cook time for some foods, but the overall

result is time saved. Some food may cook faster and more

evenly with convection bake.

Benefits of convection cooking:

• Multiple rack baking.

• Some foods cook faster, saving time and energy.

• No special pans or bakeware needed.

Figure 27: Air circulation in convection function

Setting Convection Bake

This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results

when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven can be

programmed for convection baking at any temperature

between 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C) with a default

temperature of 350°F (177°C).

To set the oven for convection bake and temperature to

375°F (190°C):

Convection baking tips:

• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies,

cakes, biscuits, and breads. Use convection baking for

best results.

When using any single rack, position the rack so that

the food is in the center of the oven. When baking using

two oven racks, position cookware as shown in

Figure 29. Allow at least 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm)

space between cookware for proper air circulation.

For best results when baking cakes using two oven

racks, place racks in positions 2 and 4 (Figure 28).

Bake cookies and biscuits on pans with no (or very low)

sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food.

Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny

bakeware. You may reduce oven temperature and cook

time to prevent overbrowning of some foods. Dark

bakeware is recommended for pies. Shiny bakeware is

recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.

Do not open the oven door often. Doing so will reduce

oven temperature and may increase cooking time.

away from the high heat of the oven broiler.

Note: If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied, they may

be purchased online from http://www.frigidaire.com. An

optional searing grill is also available.

To set broil at 500°F (260°C):

Should an oven fire occur, keep oven door closed and

turn off the oven. If the 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.

Use potholders or oven mitts when using a hot oven.

When broiling, the oven interior, racks and cooktop will

become hot enough to cause burns. Do not use the pan

without the insert. Do not cover the broil pan or insert with

aluminum foil; the exposed grease could ignite.

Broiling tips:

• Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce smoke. If

smoke is excessive, place food further away from the

broil element.

• Preheat for 5 minutes before broiling. If using a searing

grill, first preheat oven for 5 to 10 minutes.

** The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, "Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organ-

isms may survive." (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for

medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77°C).

Setting Convection Broil

Use this mode for thicker cuts of meat, fish, and poultry. The

convection broiling gently browns the exterior and seals in

the juices. Convection broiling uses the broil element and a

fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously

within the oven. The oven can be programmed for convec-

tion broiling at any temperature between 400°F to 550°F

(204°C to 288°C) with a default temperature of 550°F

(288°C). See Table 4.

To set a convection broil temperature of 500°F (260°C):

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.

1. Arrange oven racks first. Press convect; 350 ° will be

displayed, and convect and bake will flash.

2. Press convect two more times; 550° will be displayed

and convect and broil will flash.

3. Press 5 0 0.

4. Press start. CONVECT, BROIL, 500 °, and the fan icon

will be displayed.

5. After 5 minutes of preheat, place food in the oven.

The preheat tone will not sound for this feature.

Convection broiling tips:

• For optimum browning, preheat the broil element for 5

minutes.

Always pull the rack out to the stop position before

turning or removing food.

Always use a broiler pan and insert when broiling. It

keeps grease away from the high heat of the broil

element.

Do not use a broil pan without the insert. Do not cover

an insert with foil. The exposed grease could catch fire.

If using a searing grill (available by mail order), preheat

the grill for 5 to 10 minutes before placing your meat.

Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook

on the second side. Season and serve.

• Convection broiling is generally faster than conventional

broiling. Check for doneness at the minimum recom-

mended time.

Setting Convection Roast

This mode is best for cooking tender cuts of beef, lamb,

pork, and poultry. Use this mode when cooking speed is

desired. Convection roasting gently browns the exterior and

seals in the juices. Convection roasting uses the bake

element, convection element, broil element, and fan to

circulate the heat evenly and continuously within the oven.

The oven can be programmed for convection roasting at

any temperature between 170°F to 550°F (77°C to 288°C)

with a default temperature of 350°F (177°C).

To set a convection roast temperature of 375°F:

Should an oven fire occur, close oven door and turn off

the oven. If the 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.

1. Arrange oven racks and place food in the oven.

2. Press convect; 350° will be displayed; Convect and

bake will flash.

3. Press convect again. 350° will be displayed, and

convect and roast will flash.

Enter 3 7 5 using the number keys.

Press start; The actual oven temperature will be

displayed. Convect, roast, and the fan icon will be

displayed. The bake, broil, and convection elements will

also cycle for a better heat distribution.

Convection roasting tips:

Use a broiler pan and insert, as well as a roasting rack

(available online from http://www.frigidaire.com). The

broiler pan will catch grease drippings, and the insert

will help prevent spatters. The roasting rack will hold the

meat.

It's not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting

rack. Use a deep pan instead.

Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the

insert in the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler pan

without the insert or cover the insert with aluminum foil.

• Pull the rack out to the stop position before removing

food. Position food (fat side up) on the roasting rack.

Cooking with Meat Probe

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking ,,_

foods such as roasts, hams or poultry, probe

For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check

internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly

cooked food.

When set correctly, the probe feature will signal an alert

when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set

target temperature.

When active, the probe displays the internal food tempera-

ture 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.

probe

To properly place the probe:

Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the

center of the thickest part of meat or food (Figure 32).

For best results, do not allow the probe temperature

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

I 1/2

Figure 32: 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 (Figure 33).

Figure 31: Using the probe

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 Figure 31.

To avoid the possibility of burns after cooking with the

probe, use care when disconnecting the probe from

the receptacle or food. The probe may be hot. Be

sure to always use a pot holder to protect your hands.

Before starting self clean, verify that the probe is

removed from the oven interior. The high tempera-

tures during self clean may damage or destroy the

probe.

iiiiiiiii

• To avoid damaging the probe, defrost frozen foods

completely before inserting.

Figure 33: Probe in thickest part of breast

Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only the

original probe provided.

Before starting self clean, double check that the probe

is removed from the oven interior.

• Use only the original probe provided with this appli-

ance. Connecting any other probe or device into the

probe receptacle could result in damage to the oven

control, electronics and the receptacle. .....

To connect the probe to the oven:

1. Insert the probe into the food.

2. Place prepared food on the desired oven rack position

and slide into the oven.

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 top left front of the oven cavity

(Figure 34).

To set how the oven will operate once the probe

reaches the target temperature:

The oven will automatically stop cooking and start keep

warm when probe sensor reaches the target temperature.

This may be set to continue cooking if desired. Setting the

options once the probe reaches the target temperature

must be done when the oven is inactive. The probe does

not need to be connected to the receptacle when setting

this option.

PROBE TOO HOT Message:

When the message PROB... TOO... HOT... flashes in the

display, the probe temperature has exceeded 250°F

(121°C). If the probe is not removed, this message may

continue until the sensor reaches 300°F (149°C) or higher.

At this point the oven will automatically turn off. Be sure the

probe sensor is fully covered by the food.

To set the oven to continue cooking after reaching the

target temperature:

1. Press probe key and hold for 6 seconds.

2. Press self clean key and toggle until Continu appears,

as shown below, then press start to accept.

To set the oven to automatically stop cooking and start

warm once reaching target temperature:

1. Press and hold the probe key for 6 seconds.

2. Press the self clean key and toggle until CANCEL

appears, as shown below, then press start to accept.

During cooking the internal food temperature will display

by default. To see the target temperature press the

probe key once. After 6 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)

The bake time and start keys are used to

set the Sabbath feature.

For further assistance, guidelines for

proper usage, and a complete list of

models with the Sabbath feature, please

visit the web at http:\\www.star-k.org.

Bake time and delay start pressed together set the

Sabbath feature.The Sabbath feature may only be used

with the bake function. Once the oven is properly set using

bake with the Sabbath feature active, the oven will remain

on until cancelled. The Sabbath feature overrides the

factory preset 12 hour energy saving feature.

If the oven light is needed during the Sabbath, press \/=

before activating the Sabbath feature. Once the oven light

is turned on and the Sabbath feature is active, the oven

light will remain on until the Sabbath feature is turned off. If

the oven light needs to be off, turn the oven light off before

activating the Sabbath feature.

Press and hold both bake time and delay start for at

least 3 seconds. SAb will appear in the display. Once

SAb appears in the display, the oven control will no

longer beep or display any further changes, and the

oven is properly set for the Sabbath feature.

The oven may be turned off at any time by first pressing

off (this will turn the oven off only).

To turn off the Sabbath feature, press and hold both the

bake time and delay start keys for at least 3 seconds.

SAb will disappear from the display.

Food Poisoning Hazard. Do not let food sit for more than

1 hour before or after cooking. Doing so may result in

food borne illness. 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.

It is advised to not activate any cooking function other

than bake while the Sabbath feature is active. The oven

lights, start time and end time may only be set before

entering the Sabbath mode.

To program the oven to begin baking immediately and

activate the Sabbath feature (example: baking at

350°F):

1. Be sure that the clock is set with the correct time of day.

2. Place the food in the oven.

3. Press bake. The display shows 3 5 0°.

4. Press start. The actual oven temperature appears in

the display.

If setting the oven control for a bake or delayed bake

time, do so here. If not, skip this step and continue to

i Step 4. For "Setting, Delay Start", see page 26. For

'Setting Bake Time , see page 25. Remember the oven

i will turn off after using bake time or delay start and may

only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish holidays.

The maximum bake time is 5 hours and 59 minutes.

5. The oven will turn on and begin heating.

• The cooktop is locked during the Sabbath mode.

You may change the oven temperature once baking

starts by pressing bake and the number keys for the

new temperature. For example, to change from

350°F to 425°F, press 4 2 5. Then, press start twice.

Only the numeric keypad, bake, start, and off controls

will function after setting the Sabbath feature. All

other features will not function once the Sabbath

feature is properly activated. The display will not

show temperature changes or sound any audible

tones when the oven is set with the Sabbath feature.

If power fails while using the Sabbath feature:

Should you experience a power failure or interruption, the

oven will shut off. When power is returned, SF (Sabbath

Failure) will be displayed, and the oven will not turn back on

automatically. If your food was nearly fully cooked, you may

allow the trapped heat in the oven to finish the cooking

process. Otherwise, you should remove the food when the

power failure occurs because you may only start the oven

once during the Sabbath/Jewish holidays.

To turn off the Sabbath feature:

Press and hold both the bake time and delay start keys for

at least 3 seconds. SAb will disappear from the display and

the oven and cooktop may again be used with all normal

functions.

Adjusting Oven Temperature

The temperature in the oven is preset at the factory. When

first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and

temperatures. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too

cool for the temperature you select, you can adjust the

actual oven temperature to be more or less than what is

displayed. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a

temperature setting higher or lower than the recommended

temperature. The baking results should help you to decide

how much of an adjustment is needed.

To adjust the oven temperature higher:

1. Press and hold bake for 6 seconds. UPO 0 will appear

in the display.

To increase the temperature, use the number keys to

enter the desired change. For example, for 30°F, press

3 0. The temperature may be increased as much as

35°F (19°C).

3. Press start to accept the temperature change and the

display will return to the time of day. Press off to reject

the change if necessary.

To adjust the oven temperature lower:

1. Press bake for 6 seconds. UPO 0 will appear in the

display.

To decrease the temperature, use the number keys to

enter the desired change (Example -30°F) 3 0. Then,

press self clean. The temperature may be decreased

as much as 35°F (19°C).

3. Press start to accept the temperature change and the

display will return to the time of day. Press off to reject

the change if necessary.

Restoring Factory Default Setting

Your appliance is programmed with default control settings.

Over time, users may make changes to these settings. The

following options have settings that can be modified and

may have been changed since the appliance was new:

• 12 or 24 hour display mode

• Continuous bake or 12 hour energy savings mode

• Silent or audible control

• Oven temperature display (F or C)

• Oven temperature adjustments (offsets)

• Stored recipes

• Cancel or continue cooking with meat probe option

If you choose to restore factory default settings, all of the

above user preferences will be restored to their original

settings (factory default). The oven temperature adjust-

ment will reset and any stored recipes will be cleared.

To restore oven control to factory default settings:

1. When the oven is in idle and no cooking function is in

operation, press and hold the 7 key until the acceptance

tone sounds (about 6 seconds).

2. Press start. The control is now reset to default settings.

Oven temperature adjustments made with this feature

will not change the broil or self clean cycle temperatures.

The oven temperature adjustments are permanent and

will stay in the unit memory unless manually changed or

if all the controls are reset. Even a power outage will not

reset these changes. Follow the same procedure again if

you wish to change it to a different setting or use these

instructions to restore default settings.

Do not use oven thermometers like those found in

grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside

the oven. They may display readings that vary greatly

from the actual temperature.

Steam Clean

The steam clean feature offers a chemical free and time-

saving method to assist in the routine cleaning of your oven.

Steam clean may be used before manually cleaning the

oven to help loosen soils on the oven bottom.

Do not add ammonia, oven cleaners, or any other

household cleaners or chemicals to the water used in the

steam clean cycle.

Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be sure

all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. The oven

may be hot and can cause burns.

Press start.

Steam clean is a 20 minute cycle. The display will show

the time remaining.

An alert will sound at the end of the cycle, and the End

message will show in the display. Press off to return to

the clock.

When the steam clean cycle is complete, stand to the

side of the oven out of the way of escaping vapor when

opening the oven door. The cycle includes a cool-down

period, so you may immediately use a soft cloth or

sponge to remove any remaining water.

Wipe oven cavity and bottom. Do not clean oven door

gasket (Figure 38).

To set a steam clean cycle:

Oven should be at room temperature. If the oven tem-

perature is above the room temperature, steam clean

will not start. Be sure the oven is cool. Remove all racks

and oven accessories.

2. Scrape or wipe loose debris from the oven bottom.

3. Pour 8 oz (227 ml) distilled or filtered water onto the

oven bottom (Figure 36). Close the oven door.

Figure 36: Add 8 ounces of distilled water

4. Press steam clean. StCn will show in the display

(Figure 37).

Figure 37: Steam clean selected

Figure 38: Clean around the oven door gasket

For best results, clean oven immediately after the cycle is

complete. Steam clean works best for soils on the oven

bottom. Removal of especially stubborn or baked-on soils

may require a manual cleaning. See "Cleaning Various

Parts of Your Oven" on page 37.

Some condensation or water vapor may appear close to the

oven vent. This is normal. The oven gasket may become

damp; do not wipe dry. Open door about 10° and allow to air

dry.

Local water sources often contain minerals (hard water)

and will leave deposits on the oven cavity. If this occurs,

wipe cavity with vinegar or lemon juice. Use distilled or

filtered water.

If the door is opened during the steam clean cycle, a beep

will sound and d-0 will show in the display. Close the oven

door. Keep oven door closed during steam clean cycle.

Steam clean cannot be programmed with a delay start. If

steam clean results are not satisfactory, run a self clean.

See "Self Cleaning Operation"on page 35.

Self Cleaning Operation

A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures

that are well above normal cooking temperatures. These

temperatures eliminate soils completely or reduce them to a

fine powdered ash that can be wiped away with a damp

cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

Completely remove all oven racks and any cooking

accessories from the oven to avoid damage to the

racks. If oven racks are not removed before a self

clean, they will lose their special coating and will no

longer slide in and out of the oven cavity effortlessly.

Remove all items from the oven and cooktop

including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil.

Aluminum foil will not withstand the high self clean

temperatures.

Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other

parts of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will

alter heat distribution, produce poor baking results

and may cause permanent damage to the oven

interior. During self clean temperatures the oven will

be hot enough to melt foil.

• Do not spray oven cleaners or protective coatings in

or around any part of the oven interior.

Clean any soil from the oven frame, door liner outside

the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front

center of the oven bottom with soap and water. These

areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on.

Remove any excessive spills from the oven cavity

before starting the self cleaning cycle. To clean, use

hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can cause

heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high tempera-

tures.

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid

content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices, or pie

filling, etc.) to remain on surfaces. They may leave a

dull spot even after cleaning.

• Do not clean the oven door gasket. Take care not to

rub, damage, or remove the gasket or use any

cleaning substances on the oven door gasket

(Figure 38). Doing so could cause damage and

reduce the efficiency of the oven's performance.

Do not leave small children unattended near the

appliance. During self clean, the range may become

very hot to the touch.

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 if

these elements are touched before they have cooled.

Use caution when opening the door after the self

cleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be

very hot. Stand to the side of the oven door when

opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.

Do not force the oven door open when self clean is i

active. This can damage the automatic door locking

system. Use caution when opening the door after self

clean cycle is complete; the oven may still be very

hot.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the

fumes given off during the self cleaning cycle of any

oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

What to Expect During Self Clean

When the oven is set to run a self clean cycle, the motor

door lock will begin locking the oven door. Do not open the

oven door while the lock motor is running or when any

locking indicators or displays are showing. The oven door is

completely locked in about 15 seconds.

While in self clean mode, the oven heats to temperatures

much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of

metal expansion and contraction are normal.

Odors are normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke

may appear through the oven vent.

If heavy spills are not wiped up before cleaning, they may

flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is

normal and safe and should not cause alarm. If available,

use an exhaust fan during the self cleaning cycle.

Setting Self Clean Cycle Duration

The self clean key controls the self cleaning feature. If you

plan to use the oven directly after a self clean cycle, allow

time for the oven to cool and the oven door to unlock. This

normally takes about one hour. A 3 hour self clean cycle will

actually take about 4 hours to complete.

The automatic timer will turn the oven on and off at the time

you select in advance.

It is recommended to use a 2 hour self clean cycle for light

soils, a 3 hour cycle for average soils, and a 4 hour cycle for

heavy soils.

To set the controls for a 3 hour self cleaning cycle to

start immediately and shut off automatically:

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day and

the oven door is closed.

Press self clean. CLn and 3:00 HR will show in the

display. The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour

period (default self cleaning cycle time). If a 2 or 4 hour

clean time is desired, press self clean multiple times to

toggle between 2, 3, or 4 hours.

Press start, door Loc will appear, a beep will sound,

and the word DOOR and the I_1icon will flash; CLn will

remain on in the display.

As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven

door lock will begin to close automatically. Once the

door is locked, the DOOR indicator light and _ will stop

flashing and remain on, and the oven icon will appear in

the display. Allow about 15 seconds for the oven door to

lock completely.

When the self clean cycle is completed:

1. The oven will beep 3 times and HOT will appear in the

display. The time of day, the word DOOR, and the I_

icon will remain in the display.

Once the oven has cooled for approximately 1 hour,

door OPn will appear, and the word DOOR and the t_l

icon will flash until the door unlocks. The door can be

opened, and the clock display will show the time of day.

To stop or Interrupt a self cleaning cycle:

1. Press off.

The oven door can only be opened after the oven has

cooled down for about 1 HOUR. door OPn will appear,

and the word DOOR and the I_1icon will flash until the

door is unlocked. The oven door can then be opened,

and the clock display will revert back to the time of day.

Delay Start Self Clean

To set the control for delayed self clean (example: 3

hour self clean cycle to start at 4:30):

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day and

the oven door is closed.

Press self clean. CLn and 3:00 HR will show in the

display. The control will automatically clean for a 3 hour

period. If a 2 or 4 hour clean time is desired, press self

clean multiple times to toggle between 2, 3, or 4 hours.

Press start, door Loc will appear, a beep will sound,

and the word DOOR and the i_ lock icon will flash. The

letters CLn will remain on in the display.

As soon as the control is set, the motor driven oven

door lock will begin to close automatically. Once the

door has been locked, the word DOOR and the I_1lock

icon indicator light will quit flashing and remain on.

5. Press delay start. Enter the desired start time using the

number keys 4 3 0.

6. Press start. DELAY, DOOR, and the I_1icons will

remain on.

The control will start the self cleaning at the set start

time for the period of time previously selected. At that

time, the icon DELAY will go out; CLn and oven icon

will appear in the display.

When the self clean cycle is completed:

The oven will beep 3 times and HOT will appear in the

display. The time of day, the word DOOR, and the lock
