IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR GAS COOKTOP
CAUTION
Use Proper Flame Size — Adjust flame
size so it does not extend beyond the
edge of the utensil. The use of under-
sized utensils will expose a portion of
the burner flame to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also
improve eciency.
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning it
on. Turn the cooking area o before re-
moving the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of dierent sizes. Select cookware with flat
bottoms that match the surface unit heat-
ing element. The use of undersized cook-
ware may expose a portion of the flame to
direct contact and may result in the igni-
tion of clothing or other items. Using the
proper cookware on the cooking areas will
improve eciency.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check
that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the utensil.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not
extend over adjacent surface burners
Never leave surface burners unattended
at high heat settings — Boil overs cause
smoking and greasy spill overs that may
ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceram-
ic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils
are suitable for cook top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
When you are flaming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn the fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum
foil, aftermarket oven liners, or any other
materials or devices to line oven bottom,

cess residue from cleaners and aerosols
may ignite causing damage and injury.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed.
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 desired location while oven
is cool. If rack must be moved while oven
is hot, do not let potholder contact hot
burner or element in oven. Use potholders
and grasp the rack with both hands to re-
position. 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

COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS
Cooking Conditions
Conditions in your kitchen can aect the performance of your appliance when cooking food.
Condition Attributes Recommendation
Aging cookware As pans age and become
discolored, cooking times may
need to be reduced slightly.
If food is too dark or overcooked, use the
minimum cook time in the recipe or packag-
ing.
If food is too light or undercooked, use the
middle to maximum cook time in the recipe
or packaging.
High altitude Air is drier and air pressure is
lower.
Water boils at a lower tem-
perature, and liquids evapo-
rate faster.
Foods may take longer to
bake.
Doughs may rise faster.
Adjust cooking temperature, cooking time, or
recipes as needed.
Increase amount of liquid in baking recipes.
Increase cook time on cooktop. Cover dishes
to reduce evaporation.
Increase bake time or oven temperature.
Reduce amount of baking soda or baking
powder in recipe. Reduce rising time or
punch down dough and allow it to rise twice.
Cooking Results
Small adjustments may help you achieve the best results.
Result Recommendation
Food too light Use the middle to maximum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.
Food too dark Use the minimum cook time recommended on packaging or recipe.
Cooking Tips
Use these additional tips to get the best results from your appliance.
Situation Recommendation
Baking
Rack placement Follow the instructions in particular oven mode starting in “Setting Oven Con-
trols” on page 24.
Preheat Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and
breads. Insert food immediately after the beep.
Checking food Use the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may
reduce baking performance.
Bake or Convection Bake Convection bake is the best function to use for baking on multiple racks. For
best performance, see “Convection Bake” on page 30.
Steam Bake For directions, tips, and benefits of Steam Bake see “Steam Bake” on page 33.
Food placement Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air cir-
culation.
13
COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS
Material Recommendation
Broiling / Roasting
Broiling pan For best results when broiling, use a broiling pan with an insert designed to drain
the fat from the food, help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiling pan
will catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. To purchase
the broiling pan go to https://www.frigidaire.com.
Convection Cooking
Convection attri-
butes
Convection cooking uses a fan to circulate hot air around the oven and food. It
browns food more evenly and reduces hot spots in the oven.
Convection saves time when using multiple racks or cooking several food items at
once.
Convection bake Reduce cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) from the recipe unless the recipe
is written for convection baking.
Preheat the oven for best results.
Convection roast Convection roast is best for meats and does not require preheating for most
meats and poultry.
Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommended.
Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations, adjusting
the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time.
Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to 40%
depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the recom-
mended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue
cooking until the desired doneness is obtained.
Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of
the oven.
Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from
browning properly.
When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The broiler
pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Gas surface burner types
The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners
with dierent BTU ratings. The ability to heat food
quickly and in large amounts increases as the burn-
er size increases.
• Small burners are best used for low-flame heat-
ing of small amounts of food.
• Standard burners can be used for most surface
cooking needs.
• The largest burner is best used for bringing
large quantities of liquid rapidly up to tem-
perature or when preparing larger quantities
of food. The large burner is located at the right
front position on the cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that
is suitable for the amount and type of food being
prepared. Select a burner and set the flame size
appropriately for the pan. Never allow flames to
extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
Burner Cap

Orifice Holder
Ignitor
Figure 1: Burner cap, burner head, ignitor, and
orifice
Assembly of the Burner Caps
Make sure that all of the surface burner caps and
surface burner grates are installed correctly and at
the correct locations.
1. Remove all packing material from the cooktop
area.
2. Make sure burner head and caps are properly
placed on the surface burners.
Important: The burner head has a hole which fits
over the ignitor. Make sure the head fits snugly be-
fore placing the burner caps.
Note: Unpack the burner grates and position them
on the cooktop after the burner heads and caps are
properly installed.
CAUTION
• Do not allow spills, food, cleaning agents, or
any other material to enter the gas orifice
holder opening.
• Always keep the burner caps and burner
heads in place whenever the surface burners
are in use.
• Never place flammable items on the cooktop.
15
BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Using Proper Cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence
the heat setting needed for best cooking results.
Be sure to follow the recommendations for using
proper cookware as illustrated in “Figure 2: Testing
cookware” and “Figure 3: Proper cookware”.
Figure 2: Testing cookware
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across
the bottom of the
cookware (see “Figure
2: Testing cookware”).
Cookware should have
flat bottoms that make
good contact with the
entire surface of the
heating element.
• Flat bottom and straight
sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
• Weight of handle does
not tilt pan. Pan is well
balanced
.
• Pan sizes match the
amount of food to be
prepared and the size
of the surface element.
•Made of material that
conducts heat well.
• Easy to clean.
• Always match pot
diameter to element
size.
• Curved and warped pans.
•Cookware larger than
element by more than
one-half inch or 12mm.
•Heavy handle tilts pan.
• Pan is much smaller
than the element.
Cookware Material Types
The cookware material determines how evenly and
quickly heat is transferred from the surface ele-
ment to the pan bottom. The most popular materi-
als available are:
• Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some
types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized
aluminum cookware resists staining and pit-
ting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discol-
ors easily (see Aluminum).
• Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven
cooking results. Durable, easy to clean, and
resists staining.
• Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor, but will re-
tain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking
temperature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating charac-
teristics will vary depending on base material.
• Glass - Slow heat conductor.
IMPORTANT
Do not place empty aluminum, glass, or porce-
lain-enamel coated cookware on the element.
The melting point of cookware made with these
materials may be reached quickly, especially if
left empty. If the cookware melts it will damage
the cooktop. Follow all the cookware manufactur-
er’s recommendations for use and care of cook-
ware.
IMPORTANT
NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over
two dierent surface cooking areas at the same
time. Incorrect use may damage the cooktop.
Figure 3: Proper cookware

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Install Burner Grates
To install burner grates, place the grates flat-side
down and align them into the cooktop recess..
IMPORTANT
• Make sure the burner grates are proper-
ly placed on the cooktop before using the
surface burners (Figure 4). The grates are
designed to rest inside the recess on the
cooktop.
• Grates should rest flush against each other
and against the sides of the recess.
• Do not line the area underneath the grates or
any part of the cooktop with aluminum foil or
with any other lining.

The ability to heat food quickly and in large vol-
umes increases as the burner size increases. Your
gas appliance may be equipped with many dier-
ent sized surface burners.
It is important to select cookware that is suitable
for the amount and type of food being prepared.
Select a burner and flame size appropriate for the
cookware size.
• The standard size burner or burners may be
used for most surface cooking needs.
• Small burners are best used for low-flame heat-
ing of small amounts of food.
• Large burners are best for bringing large quan-
tities of liquid to temperature or heating larger
quantities of food.
Setting a surface burner:
1. Place cooking utensil on center of surface
burner grate. Be sure the cooking utensil rests
stable on the burner grate.
2. Push the burner’s surface control knob in and
turn counterclockwise out of the OFF position
(Figure 5).
3. Release the surface control knob and rotate to
the LITE position. Visually check that the burn-
er has a steady gas flame.
4. Once the surface burner has a flame, push the
surface control knob in and turn counterclock-
wise to the desired flame size setting. Adjust
the flame as needed using the knob markings.
Figure 5: Surface control knob
CAUTION
Do not place flammable items such as plastic
wrappings, spoon holders, or plastic salt and
pepper shakers on the cooktop when it is in use.
These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, tow-
els, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed
too close to the surface burners.
NOTES
• When setting a surface control knob to the
lite position, all of the electronic surface ignit-
ors will spark at the same time. However, only
the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
• In the event of an electrical power outage, the
surface burners may be lit manually. To light a
surface burner, hold a lit match to the burn-
er head, then slowly turn the surface control
knob to lite. Once the burner ignites, push in
and turn knob out of lite then to the desired
flame setting. Use caution when lighting sur-
face burners manually.

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Set proper burner flame size
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner
adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly
visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame
should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean the
burner if flame is yellow-orange.
For most cooking: start on the highest setting and
then turn to a lower setting to complete the pro-
cess. Use the recommendations below as a guide
for determining proper flame size for various types
of cooking (Table 1).
For deep fat frying: use a thermometer and adjust
the surface knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool,
the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the
fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that
the center will be under-cooked. Do not attempt to
deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will
neither brown nor cook properly.
Flame size Type of cooking
High flame Start most foods; bring water
to a boil; pan broiling
Medium flame Maintain a slow boil; thicken
sauces, gravies; steaming
Low flame Keep foods cooking; poaching;
stewing
These settings are based on medium-weight met-
al or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary
when using other types of pans.
Table 1: Recommended flame settings for cook-
ing
CAUTION
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of
the cooking utensil. A higher flame wastes en-
ergy, and increases your risk of being burned by
the flame (Figure 6).

Cooking with a griddle (some models)
The griddle is a versatile accessory that is perfect
for cooking foods that require large flat surfaces
such as pancakes, French toast, grilled sandwiches,
bacon, and also for cooking dierent foods at the
same time.
After use, let the griddle cool before washing. Hand
wash with hot soapy water. Do not soak. Dry thor-
oughly. Do not put a griddle in a dishwasher.
If you would like to purchase a griddle, you can
order one from Frigidaire.com.
Using the griddle:
Put the griddle securely in place of the middle
burner grate.Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes
on medium to medium low setting. Slow preheat
ensures even heat distribution during the cooking
process. DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting.
Preheating on HI may warp the griddle and prevent
even heat distribution.
Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points
when home canning with your appliance. Check
with the USDA (United States Department of Ag-
riculture) ebsite and be sure to read all the infor-
mation they have available as well as follow their
recommendations for home canning procedures.
• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with
no ridges that radiate from the bottom cen-
ter when home canning. Heat is spread more
evenly when the bottom surface is flat. Use a
straight-edge to check canner bottom.
• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not
exceed 1 inch (25mm) beyond the surface ele-
ment markings or burner.
• It is recommended to use smaller diameter can-
ners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops
and to center canners on the burner grates.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil
more quickly.
• Use the highest heat setting when first bringing
the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved,
reduce heat to lowest possible setting to main-
tain that boil.
• Use tested recipes and follow instructions care-
fully. Check with your local Cooperative Agri-
cultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of
glass jars for the latest canning information.
• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
• Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on
high heat for an extended amount of time.

• Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking
needs and may be placed in most oven rack
positions.
• The fully extendable glide rack makes food
preparation easier. This oven rack has glide
tracks that allow the rack to be pulled away
from the oven without rubbing the sides of the
oven wall. See glide rack instructions on next
page.
• Air fry tray is used for even heating on all sides
without having to turn the food.
Figure 9: Oven rack types
CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven
exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become
very hot which can cause burns.
Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean
cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during
a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven
racks may be damaged and all of the oven racks
will lose their shiny finish.
To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not
attempt to close the oven door until all the oven
racks are fully positioned back inside the oven
cavity.
WARNING
Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil
or any other material or liners to line the oven
bottom, walls, racks or any other part of the
range. Doing so will alter the heat distribution,
produce poor baking results, and possibly cause
permanent damage to the oven interior. Improp-
er installation of these liners may result in risk of
electric shock or fire. During self clean, tempera-
tures in the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.
Oven Vent Location
The oven is vented as shown below. When the oven
is on, warm air is released through the vent. This
venting is necessary for proper air circulation in the
oven and good baking results. Do not block oven
vent. Never close o the openings with aluminum
foil or any other material. Steam or moisture may
appear near the oven vent. This is normal.

Using both hands, lift up the front of the rack
slightly and continue to pull the rack away from the
oven. Be sure to grasp both upper and lower rack
portions together when removing or handling the
glide rack.
The rack portions move independently and are
dicult to handle unless held together.
To replace - Make sure the baking rack is in the
closed position. Grasp both upper and lower
portions of glide rack. Lift and hold the rack level
between the oven cavity walls. Tilt the front of the
rack upward slightly and slide the rack completely
into position.
To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not
attempt to close the oven door until all the oven
racks are fully positioned back inside the oven
cavity.

tween 175°F (79°C) to 550°F (288°C).
Baking Tips
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like
cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.
• For all baking except layer cakes, pans should
be placed in the middle of the rack. Place layer
cake pans as shown.
• Use the convection bake function for best re-
sults when baking cookies or cakes on multiple
racks.
• For best results when baking layer cakes using
two oven racks, place racks in positions 2 and 5
and place pans centered on each rack.
• When using any single rack for baking cookies,
cakes, biscuits, or muns use rack position 3.
• Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between
bakeware for proper air circulation.
• Leave oven lights o while baking.
CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using

Air Fry
The Air Fry feature works best for single rack bak-
ing with packaged and convenience foods. It works
well with most recipes and can be programmed
for temperatures between 175°F (79°C) and 550°F
(288°C). Follow the recipe or package directions
for food preparation quantity, time, and tempera-
ture.
Important:
• Food should be arranged in single layers on a
pan and place food near the front of a single
rack on position 3 for best results.
• When using Air Fry tray, place a large, rimmed
cookie sheet on rack position 1 to catch any
crumbs or drippings.
• Leave oven light o when baking.
• Food may need to be removed early and
should be checked at minimum recommended
bake time. However, frozen dense foods and
items with cook times less than 15 minutes may
require additional time.
The Air Fry Tray is specifically designed to deliver
superior performance.
Some Benefits of the Air Fry Tray:
• Tray optimized for oven space and large capac-
ity air frying.
• Fits in the dishwasher for easy clean up.
• Higher yield than countertop models.

Slow Cook
Use Slow Cook for foods that will cook or braise at
low temperature for a long period of time.
For best results when using Slow Cook:
• Completely thaw all frozen foods before cook-
ing.
• When using a single oven rack, place in oven
rack position 2 or 3. Position racks to accom-
modate the size of various bakeware when
cooking multiple food items.
• Do not open the oven door often or leave the
door open when checking foods. If the oven
heat escapes often, the Slow Cook time may
need to be extended.
• Cover to keep foods moist or use a loose or
vented type cover to allow foods to turn crisp
or brown.
• Roasts may be left uncovered so browning can
occur. Cook times will vary depending on the
weight, fat content, bone, and the shape of the
roast. Preheating the oven will not be necessary
when using the Slow Cook feature.
• Add any cream or cheese sauces during the last
hour.
Slow cooking meats may result in the outside of
the meat turning dark; this is normal.
WARNING
Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for
more than one hour before or after cooking.
Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.
Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs,
fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the
refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should
not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before
cooking begins, and should be removed promptly
when finished cooking.
Broil
Use the broil function to cook foods that require
direct exposure to radiant heat for optimum
browning results. Broiling may produce smoke. If
smoke is excessive, place food further away from
the heating element.
WARNING
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door
and turn the oven o. If the fire continues, 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.
Important: Broiler pans and inserts allow the
grease to drain away from the high heat of the
broiler. Do not use the pan without the insert. Do
not cover the insert with foil – the exposed grease
could ignite.
Note: To purchase the broiling pan, please visit
www.frigidaire.com.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, **Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cook-
ing it to only 140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organisms 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). All cook times shown are after 2
minutes of preheating.
Important notes:
• Always arrange oven racks when the oven is cool.
• For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with broil pan insert designed to drain the fat from the
food and help avoid spatter and reduce smoking.
• When broiling, always pull the oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.

Convection Bake
Convection Bake uses a fan to circulate the oven’s
heat uniformly around the oven. This improved
heat distribution allows for even cooking and
browning results. Heated air flows around the food
from all sides.
Convection bake may be set for any oven tempera-
ture between 175°F (79°C) and 550°F (288°C).
Benefits of convection cooking include:
• Multiple rack baking.
Convection baking tips:
• Use Convection Bake for best results when bak-
ing cookies and cakes on 2 racks.
• For best results it is recommended to preheat
the oven before baking items like cookies,
biscuits and breads and move pans to center of
the racks.
• If your recipe is not written for convection bak-
ing, reduce the oven temperature by 25° or use
Convection Convert option.
• No special pans or bakeware required.
• For cookies use the following racks:
• Single rack baking use 3 (glide rack).
• Two rack baking use 2 (flat) and 5 (glide).
• For baking cakes use the following rack posi-
tions and place bakeware as shown in Figure 11.
In upper rack use position 5 (glide) or 6 (flat).
• Cookies and biscuits should be baked on pans
with no sides or very low side to allow heated
air to circulate around the food. Food items
baked on pans with a dark finish will cook fast-
er.
• Leave oven lights o while baking.

* The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cook-
ing it to only 140°F (60°C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food
Book, Your Kitchen Guide) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medi-
um rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77°C)** Stued turkey requires additional roasting time. Shield
legs and breast with foil to prevent over browning and drying of the skin.
Convection Roasting tips:
• Preheating for convection roast is not necessary for most meats and poultry.
• Arrange oven racks so meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.
• Since convection roast cooks faster, may be able to reduce cook times as much as 25% from the rec-
ommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until
the desired doneness is obtained.
• Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.
• When cooking meats use the broiler pan and insert. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the
insert helps prevent grease splatters.

Steam Bake
Steam creates the best conditions for baking bread
on a single rack. Baked goods will have improved
browning and texture and is recommended for
baking moist and flavorful breads and pastries such
as baguettes and croissants.
Use glide rack in position 3 for best results for
Steam Bake. pans should be pulled to the front of
the rack.
Cooking with Steam
Note: More moisture will be present than during
conventional baking or roasting. Moisture could
condense on handle or in the door, and depending
on the conditions in your kitchen possibly drip onto
the floor.
Steam Cooking Tips:
Oven Positioning
• Use glide rack in position 3 in the oven for most
steam cooking.
• Lowest position for poultry.
Preparing
• Use 2.5 cups of water for steam bake and
steam roast. If steam functions are frequently
used, use distilled water.
• Using water container, pour water slowly onto
the bottom of oven cavity while still cool.
• Never add water if the oven is warm.
• Never add water during a Steam Bake or Steam
Roast cycle.
While in Use
• When using Steam, follow recipe for preheat-
ing, cook time and cook temperature.
• Always start with a cold oven.
• Preheating is not necessary when using steam
roast.
Cleaning
• With a paper towel lightly soaked in distilled
white vinegar, wipe out bottom of oven cavity
after the oven is cooled or before each use.
• Use the self clean function to clean heavily
soiled areas.
• If residue remains after self clean, pour a thin
layer of distilled white vinegar onto the bottom
of the oven cavity. Allow to sit for 30 minutes.
Wipe out vinegar.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
No Preheat
No Preheat is available for single rack baking with
packaged and convenience foods and can be
used with regular recipes also. No Preheat may be
used with temperatures between 175°F (79°C) and
550°F (288°C). Follow the recipe or package direc-
tions for food preparation time and temperature.
During No Preheat function, the oven elements will
cycle on and o. The convection fan will turn on
and stay on until No Preheat is canceled. Depend-
ing on your preference for doneness cooking times
may vary. Watch food closely.
Important:
• Always place food on rack position 3.
• Place the food with the pan or bakeware to the
center of the oven rack.
• When using No Preheat, use bakeware with
low or no sides. This allows the air to circulate
around the food evenly.
• Leave oven light o when baking.
• Food that comes in strips, such as fish sticks
and chicken tenders, should be placed on the
pan with the ends pointing to the sides of the
oven. Follow the package directions for food
preparation time and temperature.
• Food may need to be removed early and
should be checked at minimum recommended
cook time.
• No Preheat works best when cooking foods
longer than 10 minutes. If directions call for a
shorter cooking time, a few extra minutes may
be required for optimal cooking results.
• Do not open the oven door often. Opening the
door will reduce the temperature in the oven
and may increase cook time.
• Leave oven lights o while cooking.
To set the no preheat temperature:
1. Push in and turn the Oven Mode knob to NO
PREHEAT. The temperature display will show
---.
2. Turn the Oven Temperature knob to the desired
cooking temperature.
3. When finished cooking, turn the Mode knob to

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS
Cooking with Food Probe
Use the probe feature for best results when cook-
ing foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry.
The Food Probe works with the following oven
modes: Bake, Convection Bake, Air Fry, Convection
Roast, and Steam Roast.
The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an
alert when the internal food temperature reaches
the desired set target temperature. The probe set-
tings for how the oven behaves should be set first
in the oven menu.
When active, the probe displays the internal food
temperature which is visible in the display during
the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork
or the need to open the oven door to check the
thermometer.
For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to
check internal temperature is the safest method to
ensure properly cooked food.
To set Food Probe:
1. Plug the food probe into the oven re-
ceptacle, the Food Probe indicator will
come on.
2. Select a cooking mode on the Mode dial.
3. Select a temperature on the Temp dial.
4. The SET TEMP indicator turns on with a default
value of 160°F, and the + and - keys come on.
5. Use the + and - keys to set the target internal
temperature.
Proper placement of probe in food.
Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside
the center of the thickest part of meat or food. For
best results, do not allow the probe temperature
sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cook-
ware.
• 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.
CAUTION
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
and always use a pot holder to protect hands
from possible burns.
6. After a moment, the display will show the cur-
rent internal temperature.
7. When the target temperature of the turkey
(internal temperature) is reached, the oven will
turn o, and the CHECK FOOD indicator will
come on.

IMPORTANT
Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only
the original probe provided. Connecting any oth-
er probe or device could result in damage to the
oven control, electronics, and the receptacle.
Before starting self clean, double check that the
probe is removed from the oven interior. Defrost
frozen foods completely before inserting the
probe.
NOTE
During cooking, the internal food temperature
will display in the screen. The oven temperature
will be displayed at the top of the screen. 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 and the oven will
turn o. If the probe is removed from the food
only, the probe feature will remain active and
may eventually generate a probe too hot mes-
sage.
To change the target (internal food) temperature
or the set oven temperature, use the + or - to

Self Clean
A self cleaning oven cleans itself with high tem-
peratures (well above normal cooking tempera-
tures), which vaporizes soils or reduces them to a
fine powdered ash you can wipe away afterwards
with a damp cloth. This function can be pro-
grammed for clean times between 2 and 4 hours.
Important: Before starting self clean read all fol-
lowing caution and important statements before
starting a self clean cycle.
Figure 13: Clean around the oven door gasket
Important notes:
• Completely remove all oven racks and any ac-
cessories from oven cavity to avoid damage to
oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed
they may discolor.
• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop
including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum
foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high tem-
peratures from a self clean cycle and will melt.
• Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protec-
tive coatings in or around any part of the oven
interior. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the
door liner outside the oven door gasket, and
the small area at the front center of the oven
bottom. These areas heat suciently to burn
soil on. Clean using soap and water prior to
starting Self Clean.
• Remove any excessive spills. Any spills on the
oven bottom should be wiped up and removed
before starting a self clean cycle. To clean use
hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spills can
cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to
high temperatures.
• Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut,
fruit juices, or pie fillings) to remain on the
surface as they may leave a dull spot even after
cleaning.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven
material in the gasket is essential for a good
seal. Care should be taken not to rub, dam-
age, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so
could cause damage to the door gasket and
compromise the performance of the oven.
• The kitchen area should be well ventilated us-
ing an open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust
hood during the first self clean cycle. This will
help eliminate the normal odors.
• Do not attempt to open the oven door when
the OVEN LOCK indicator light is flashing.
Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door
latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock
the oven door.
• When the clean time finishes, the oven door will
remain locked until the range has cooled suf-
ficiently. In addition to the clean time that was
programmed, you must allow about 1 additional
hour for the oven to cool before you will be
able to open the oven door.
CAUTION
• Do not leave small children unattended near
appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside
of the oven can become very hot and cause
burns if touched.
• Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bot-
tom, or any part of the range with aluminum
foil. This will cause permanent damage to the
oven interior and destroy heat distribution,
and will melt to the oven interior.
• Do not force the oven door open. This will
damage the automatic door locking system.
Use caution when opening the oven door
after the self clean cycle ends. The oven may
still be very hot and cause burns. To avoid
possible burns, stand to side of oven when
opening door to allow steam or hot air to
escape.
• The health of some birds is extremely sensi-
tive to fumes given o during the self clean
cycle of any range. Move birds to a well venti-
lated room.

locked during Sabbath mode.
To start Sabbath Mode, first select Sabbath from
the settings menu. Next, select Delay (if desired),
and Bake temperature and set. Cooking will begin
after any specified delay.
Important: The Sabbath mode will override the
factory preset 12 hour energy saving mode, and the
appliance will stay on until the cooking features are
canceled. If cooking is canceled when the appli-
ance is in the Sabbath mode, no audible or visual
indicators will be available to verify the cancella-
tion.
If the oven interior lights are needed, be sure to
activate them prior to setting the Sabbath mode.
Once the oven light is turned on and the Sabbath
mode is active, the oven light will remain on until

closed. Clean softened dirt spots using hot,
soapy water. Rinse well with water and a clean
cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a nonabrasive scouring pad
or a nonabrasive cleaner. If necessary, use an
oven cleaner following manufacturer’s instruc-
tions. Do not mix ammonia with other cleaners.
3. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door
liner outside the oven door gasket and the
small area at the front center of the oven bot-
tom. Clean with hot, soapy water. Rinse well
using clean water and a cloth.
Follow these cleaning precautions:
• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appli-
ance manually.
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow
food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such
as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie
filling) to remain on the surface as they may cause
a dull spot even after cleaning. Remove spillovers
and heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular
cleaning will reduce the eort required for major
cleaning later.
CAUTION
Before manually cleaning any part of the oven,
be sure all controls are turned o and the oven is
cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns.
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven
before cleaning.
Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the
oven. Provide adequate ventilation.

CARE AND CLEANING
Aluminum Foil, Aluminum Utensils, and
Oven Liners
WARNING
Never cover any slots, holes, or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks
air flow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may
trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
• Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to
line the oven bottom. The high heat of the oven
can melt these materials to the oven cavity and
ruin the oven. These types of materials can also
reduce the eectiveness of the air circulation in
the oven and produce poor baking results. Only
use aluminum foil as recommended in this man-
ual. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock or fire.
• Aluminum utensils - The melting point of alu-
minum is much lower than that of other metals.
Care must be taken when aluminum pots or
pans are used.
• Oven racks - Do not use aluminum foil to cover
the oven racks. Using a liner in the oven re-
stricts the heat and air flow needed to obtain
the best possible cooking results for any oven.
Replacing the Oven Light
CAUTION
Be sure the oven is unplugged and all parts are
cool before replacing the oven light.
The interior oven light is located at the rear of the
oven cavity and is covered by a glass shield. The
glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is
in use.
To replace the oven interior light bulb:
1. Turn electrical power o at the main source or
unplug the appliance.
2. Remove interior oven light shield by turning a
quarter turn counter-clockwise.
3. Replace bulb with a new T-4 type Halogen 40
watt appliance bulb.
NOTE
Wear a cotton glove or use a paper towel when
installing a new bulb. Do not touch the new bulb
with your fingers when replacing. This will short-
en the life of the bulb.
4. Replace glass oven light shield by rotating
clockwise.
5. Turn power back on again at the main source
(or plug the appliance back in).
6. Be sure to reset the time of day on the clock.

CARE AND CLEANING
Caring for Your Glide Racks
CAUTION
Handle oven racks only when they are cool. After
cooking or after the fresh-clean cycle, racks will
be very hot and can cause burns.
Important Notes:
• Remove all oven racks, including ladder
racks,before starting a clean cycle.
• Do not use cooking oil, cooking spray, or other
oil-based lubrication products on the glide rack
extension tracks. Use only the graphite lubrica-
tion in this area. To order graphite lubrication,
contact your installer, servicer or dealer.
• It is important that the parts of the rack that
contact the oven sides always have a light
coating of vegetable oil. Apply a thin layer of
vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every
fresh-clean cycle and when the rack becomes
dicult to reposition in the oven.
To lubricate the glide rack:
1. Remove the rack from the oven and place the
rack on a large flat surface covered with news-
paper or scrap cloth. Fully extend the rack.
2. Wipe away debris and crumbs from the glide
track using a cloth or sponge.
3. Shake graphite lubrication very well before
applying. Apply to loading guides, and rotation
pin. Repeat on both sides of the glide rack.
4. Extend and return the glide rack several times
along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.
5. Turn the rack upside down and apply graphite
lubrication to the insides of the loading guides.
6. Extend and return the glide rack several times
along the tracks to distribute the lubrication.
7. Apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the bottom
of the “V” and the glide channels. Keeping the
frame sides lightly lubricated allows the entire
rack to slide easily when changing rack posi-
tions.
8. Replace rack in oven right-side up.

Self-Clean Problems
Problem Cause / Solution
Self clean does not work. Oven control not set properly. See “Setting Self Clean” on page 38.
Oven racks discolored or
do not slide easily.
Oven racks left in oven cavity during self clean. Remove oven racks from
oven cavity before starting a self-clean cycle. Clean by using a mild abrasive
cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water, dry,
and replace in oven.
Soil not completely re-
moved after self clean.
Self clean was interrupted. Review instructions on “Self Cleaning” on page
37.
Excessive spills on oven bottom. Remove excessive spills before starting self
clean.
Failure to clean soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven
door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom.
These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on
residue. Clean these areas before starting the self-cleaning cycle. Burned-on
residue can be cleaned with a sti nylon brush and water or a nylon scrub-
ber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.
The oven control display
shows "SPr" and self-clean
is not working.
The cooktop should not be used during a self-clean cycle. On some models,
turning on any cooktop surface burner will cause the clean cycle to cancel.
