the power resumes, the oven will begin to operate again. Once
the power resumes, reset the clock and oven function.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
Use Proper Flame Size—Adjust flame size so
it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner flame to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Know which knob controls each surface burner. Place a
pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the
burner off before removing the pan.
•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.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend Over
Adjacent Surface Burners—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—Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this
manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk
of electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooktop use.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR OVEN
• Use Care When Opening Oven Door or Warmer Drawer—
Stand to the side of the range when opening the door of a hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.
Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near
the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

Before Setting Oven Controls
Fig. 1
Oven Vent Location
The oven vent is located below the backguard (See Fig. 1). When the oven is
on, warm air is released through this vent. This venting is necessary for proper air
circulation in the oven and good baking results. DO NOT BLOCK THE VENT.
Removing & Replacing Oven Racks
To remove, pull the rack forward until it stops. Lift up front of rack and slide out.
To replace, fit the rack onto the guides on the oven walls. Tilt the front of the rack
upward and slide the rack back into place.
For best air circulation and baking
results allow 2-4" (5-10 cm) around
the cookware for proper air
circulation and be sure pans and
cookware do not touch each other,
the oven door, sides or back of the
oven cavity. The hot air must be able
to circulate around the pans and
cookware in the oven for even heat to
reach around the food.
Air Circulation in the Oven
Baking Layer Cakes with 1 or 2 Oven Racks
For best results when baking cakes using 2 oven racks, place cookware on rack positions 2 & 5 (See Fig. 7). For best
results when using a single oven Flat Rack, place cookware on rack position 3 or 4 (See Fig.8).
Fig. 2

Setting Surface Controls
Do not place plastic
items such as salt and pepper
shakers, spoon holders or plastic
wrappings on top of the range when
it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wood
spoons could catch fire if placed too
close to a flame.
In the event of an electrical power
outage, the surface burners can be lit
manually. To light a surface burner, hold
a lit match to the burner head, then
slowly turn the surface control knob to
LITE. After burner lights push in and turn
knob to desired setting. Use caution
when lighting surface burners manually.
Setting Proper Surface Burner Flame Size
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower one
to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for
determining proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of
utensil used and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting needed
for cooking.
*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; poach; stewing.
For deep fat frying, use a thermometer and adjust the surface control 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 undercooked. Do not
attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook
properly.
Never extend the flame beyond the outer
edge of the utensil. A higher flame simply
wastes heat and energy, and increases
your risk of being burned by the flame.
*These settings are based on using medium-weight metal or aluminum pans
with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans. 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 burner if flame is yellow-orange.
Setting Surface Controls
Your range may be equipped with different sized surface burners. The ability to heat
food quicker and in larger volumes increases as the burner size increases. The
Simmer burner (some models) is best used for simmering delicate food items
such as sauces, etc.
The standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs. Some models
include a center burner (or griddle burner). Note: Before using the center burner
with the griddle, REMOVE the center burner grate from the cooktop and replace with
the griddle.
The Power Plus burner or burners (some models) are best used for bringing large
quantities of liquid to temperature and when preparing larger quantities of food.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type
of food being prepared. Select a burner and flame size appropriate to the pan.
Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.
CORRECT
INCORRECT
Operating the Gas Surface Burners:
1. Place cooking utensil on surface burner.
2. Push the surface control knob in and turn counterclockwise out of the OFF
position.
3. Release the knob and rotate to the LITE position. Note: All four electronic
surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the burner you are
turning on will ignite.
3. Visually check that the burner has lit.
4. Push the control knob in and turn counterclockwise to the desired flame size.
The control knobs do not have to be set at a particular setting. Use the guides
and adjust the flame as needed. DO NOT cook with the surface control knob in
the LITE position. (The electronic ignitor will continue to spark if the knob is left
in the LITE position.)
9
Arranging Warming Drawer Rack Positions
The rack can be used in 2 ways:
• In the upright position to allow low profile food items to be placed both
under and on top of the rack (for example, rolls or biscuits on top of the rack
and a casserole dish underneath).
• In the downward position to allow you to place light weight food items and
empty cookware (for example, rolls or pastries and dinner plates) on the
rack.
Set the Warming Drawer rack in either position as shown below (Fig. 1).
To Operate the Warming Drawer
The purpose of the Warming Drawer is to keep hot cooked foods at serving
temperature. Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold
food in the Warming Drawer.
All food placed in the Warming Drawer should be covered with a lid or aluminum
foil to maintain quality. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may
melt onto the drawer and be very difficult to clean. Use only utensils and
cookware recommended for oven use in the Warming Drawer.
To Set the Warming Drawer Control
The control is used to select the temperature of the Warming Drawer. It is
located on the control panel. To set the control, push in and turn the knob to
the desired setting. The temperatures are approximate, and are designated by
HI (high), MED (medium) and LO (low). To set the Warming Drawer control:
1. Turn the knob to select the desired temperature setting.
2. For best results, preheat the drawer before adding food. An empty drawer
will preheat in approximately 15 minutes.
3. When done, turn the control to OFF.
Warming Drawer Temperature Selection
Recommended Warming Drawer food settings are shown in Fig. 3. If a
particular food is not listed, start with the MED setting. If more crispness is
desired, remove the lid or aluminum foil from the food. Most foods can be kept
at serving temperatures on the MED setting. When a combination of foods are
to be kept warm (for example, a meat with 2 vegetables and rolls) use the HI
setting. To avoid heat loss, do not open the Warming Drawer while in use.
Warming Drawer Indicator Light
The Warming Drawer indicator light is located above the Warming Drawer
control knob (See Fig. 2). It turns on when the control is set, and stays on until
the control is turned off. The Warming Drawer will not operate during the
Self-Clean cycle.

Setting SpeedBake™
Benefits of Speed Bake™ Cooking System:
—Some foods may cook up to 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.
—Multiple rack baking.
—No special pans or bakeware needed.
Fig. 1 - Air circulation of SpeedBake™ Cooking System
To set the oven for SpeedBake™ and the oven
temperature for 350°F:
1. Arrange interior oven racks and place food in oven (See Fig. 1).
2. Press . (Fig. 2)
3. Press . A beep will sound once the adjusted oven
temperature is reached. (Fig. 3).
Notes: Once SpeedBake™ has been set, the convection fan will
take 6 minutes to activate. The oven display will show a rotating
fan within a square icon when the convection fan is ON. If the oven
door is opened with SpeedBake™active , the convection fan will
turn OFF.
Press to cancel SpeedBake™ at any time.
Tips when using SpeedBake™
1. Time reductions will vary depending on the amount and type of food to be cooked. Cookies and biscuits should be
baked on pans with no sides or very low sides to allow heated air to circulate around the food. Food baked on pans with
a dark finish will cook faster.
2. Preheating is not necessary when cooking casseroles with SpeedBake™.
3. When using SpeedBake™ with a single rack, place oven rack in position 3 or 4. If cooking on multiple racks, place the
oven racks in positions 2 & 5 (2 oven racks). Place racks in positions 2, 4 & 6 for 3 oven racks. Refer to Fig. 1.
4. Cakes have better results when baked using the BAKE pad.
The Speed Bake pad controls the convection baking features.
Use SpeedBake™ when cooking speed is desired. The oven can be
programmed for SpeedBake™ at any temperature between 300° F
(148° C) to 550° F (288° C).
The SpeedBake™ Cooking System uses a fan to circulate the oven's heat evenly and continuously within the oven (See
Fig. 1). This improved heat distribution allows for even cooking and excellent results using multiple racks at the same time.
Foods cooked on a single oven rack will generally cook faster and more evenly with SpeedBake™ Cooking System.
Multiple oven rack cooking may slightly increase cook times for some foods, but the overall result is time saved. Breads
and pastries brown more evenly.

During the Self-Cleaning
cycle, the outside of the range can
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT
leave small children unattended near the
appliance.
The health of some birds
is extremely sensitive to the fumes given
off during the Self-Cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well-
ventilated room.
DO NOT line the oven
walls, racks, bottom or any other part of
the range with aluminum foil. Doing so
will destroy heat distribution, produce
poor baking results and cause
permanent damage to the oven interior
(aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
DO NOT force the oven
door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use
caution when opening the door after the
Self-Cleaning cycle is completed. The
oven may still be VERY HOT.
Self-Cleaning Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking
temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any
part of the Self-Cleaning oven.
• DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or remove the gasket.
• DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so
could cause damage.
• Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
• Remove oven racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under
Before Setting Oven Controls. If they are not removed during the Self-Clean
cycle their color will turn slightly blue & the finish will be dull. After the
cycle is complete & the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks
with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will
make the racks glide easier into the rack positions).
• Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the
Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large
spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high
temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content
(such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on
the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.
• Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door
gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These
areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
NOTES: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed. See additional cleaning information for the oven door
in the General Care & Cleaning section.

The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the burners are sealed, cleanups are
easy when spillovers are cleaned up immediately. To clean, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and
wipe dry. For more information about cleaning the gas burners see Cleaning the Contoured
Cooktop Well Areas, Burner Cap, Burner Head and Burner Drip Pans in the Care &
Cleaning section.
For general cleaning, use a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent & water or a 50/50 solution
of vinegar & water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry & polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth 1st. DO NOT spray liquids directly on the
control pad and display areas. DO NOT use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess
water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT use other liquid
cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or some paper towels - they will damage the finish.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF & remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Use the general cleaning instructions provided in the
paragraph above.
Clean burner grates, broiler pan & insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not
removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clean water & ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel
for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled
scouring pad. Rinse & wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may
become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top.

General Care & Cleaning
Any additions, changes or conversions
required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the
application needs must be made by an authorized
Electrolux Distributor or Qualified Agency.
Cleaning the Cooktop
The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Since the four burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers
are cleaned up immediately. To clean, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry. DO NOT attempt to clean the cooktop
when the cooktop or burner heads are still hot. The contoured well areas and burner drip pans (some models) should be
routinely cleaned. Keeping the burner head ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. Refer
to the following sections for further instructions.
To clean the burner head ignition ports - Each burner head has a small
ignition port located as illustrated. Should you experience ignition problems it
may be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in
place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the
ignition port.
To Clean the Surface Burner Heads - For proper gas flow it may be necessary
to clean the burner head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to
soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small
non-abrasive brush like a toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth.
For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean
the slots.
Please Note: The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must be
cleaned in place on the cooktop.

Special Door Care Instructions
Most oven doors contain glass that can break. Read the following
recommendations:
1. Do not close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully in place.
2. Do not hit the glass with pots, pans, or any other object.
3. Scratching, hitting, jarring or stressing the glass may weaken its structure
causing an increased risk of breakage at a later time.
Changing the Oven Light
The oven light automatically turns ON when the door is opened. The oven light
may also be manually operated by pressing the pad. The oven light bulb is
located at the rear of the oven and is covered with a glass shield held by a wire
holder (See Fig. 5). The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in
use.
To replace the oven light bulb:
1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug the range.
2. Press wire holder to one side to release the glass shield.
3. Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.

Before You Call
Solutions to Common Problems
Before you call for service, review the following list. It may save you time & expense. The list includes common occurrences
(shown in bold) that are not the result of defective workmanship or materials in this appliance. The possible corrections to these
problems are provided with the problem listed:
Entire appliance does not operate - (1) The time of day is not
set. The time of day must first be set in order to operate the
oven. See “To Set the Clock” in the Setting Oven Controls
section.(2) Make sure cord/plug is plugged correctly into outlet.
(3) Service wiring is not complete. Contact your authorized
service agent. (4) Electrical power outage. Check house lights
to be sure. Call your local electric company for service. (5) Be
sure gas supply is turned ON.
Cannot move appliance easily. Appliance must be accessible
for service - (1) Cabinets not square or are built in too tightly.
Contact builder or installer to make appliance accessible. (2)
Carpet interferes with range. Provide sufficient space so range
can be lifted over carpet.
Range is not level - (1) Poor installation. Place oven rack in
center of oven. Place a level on the oven rack. Adjust leveling
legs at base of range until the oven rack is level. (2) Be sure
floor is level, strong & stable enough to adequately support
range. (3) If floor is sagging or sloping, contact a carpenter to
correct the situation. (4) Kitchen cabinet alignment may make
range appear not level. Be sure cabinets are square & have
sufficient room for range clearance.
Oven light does not work (some models) - Replace or tighten
bulb. See Changing Oven Light section in this Use & Care
Manual.
Oven smokes excessively during broiling - (1) Control(s) not
set properly. Follow Broil instructions under Setting Oven
Controls. (2) Oven door is open. Make sure oven door is
closed. (3) Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the
broil rack to provide proper clearance between the meat & the
element. Preheat the broil element for searing. (4) Meat not
properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut fatty
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean. (5) Insert on
broiler pan wrong side up & grease not draining. Always place
grid on the broiler pan with ribs up & slots down to allow grease
to drip into pan (some models). (6) Grease has built up on oven
surfaces or broiler pan & insert (some models). Regular
cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Old grease or
food spatters cause excessive smoking.
Poor baking results - Many factors affect baking results. Make
sure the proper oven rack position is used. Center food in the
oven & space pans to allow air to circulate. Allow the oven to
preheat to the set temperature before placing food in the oven.
Try adjusting the recipe's recommended temperature or baking
time. If you feel the oven is too hot or cool, see Adjusting Your
Oven Temperature in this Use & Care Manual.
Oven does not operate - (1) Be sure the oven controls are set
properly for the desired function. See Setting Oven Controls in
this Use & Care Manual or read the instructions “Entire
appliance does not operate” in this checklist. (2) Be sure gas
regulator valve is “ON”. See installation instructions.
Oven control beeps & displays any F code error (for example
F11) - Electronic control has detected a fault condition. Press
CLEAR/OFF to clear the display & stop beeping. Reprogram
oven. If fault recurs, record fault number. Press CLEAR/OFF &
contact an authorized service agent.
Self-Cleaning cycle does not work - (1) Oven control not set
properly. Follow instructions under Self-Cleaning. (2) Self-
Cleaning cycle was interrupted. Follow steps under "Stopping
or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle" under Self-Cleaning.
Soil not completely removed after Self-Cleaning cycle -
Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door
area outside oven seal. These areas are not in the Self-
Cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on residue. Clean
these areas before the Self-Cleaning cycle is started. Burned-
on residue can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or
a nylon scrubber. Be careful not to damage the oven gasket.
Surface burner flame is orange - (1) Dust particles in main
line. Allow the burner to operate a few minutes until flame turns
blue. (2) In coastal areas, a slightly orange flame is
unavoidable due to salt air.
Flames inside oven or smoking from oven vent - Excessive
spillovers in oven. For example this will happen for pie
spillovers or large amounts of grease left on the oven bottom.
Wipe up excessive spillovers before starting oven. If flames or
excessive smoke are present see “Broiling” in the Setting
Oven Controls section.
Surface Burners do not light - (1) Surface Control knob was
not completely turned to LITE. Push in & turn the Surface
Control knob to LITE until burner ignites and then turn control
knob to desired flame size. (2) Burner ports are clogged. With
the burner OFF, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean
ports. See “Cleaning the Contoured Well Areas, Burner Caps,
Head & Drip Pans” in the General Care & Cleaning section for
additional cleaning instructions. (3) Range power cord is
disconnected from outlet (electric ignition models only). Be
sure power cord is securely plugged into the outlet. (4)
Electrical power outage (electric ignition models only). Burners
can be lit manually. See section on Setting Surface Controls.
Surface burner flame burns only part way around burner cap
- (1) Burner ports are clogged. With the gas burner OFF, clean
ports with a small-gauge wire or needle. (2) Moisture is
present after cleaning. Lightly fan the flame & allow burner to
operate until flame is full. Dry the burners thoroughly following
the instructions under “Cleaning the Contoured Well Areas,
Burner Caps, Head & Drip Pans” in the General Care &
Cleaning section.
