APPLIANCE

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR INDUCTION COOKTOP

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

Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface elements. — To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the cookware should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over other cooking areas.

Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of cookware are suitable for cook top service and must be magnetic to work properly on the induction zones. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations for cook top use to ensure that the cookware is compatible with induction cooking.

Improper cookware may break due to sudden changes in temperature. Check the cookware manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.

Use proper pan size – This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different sizes. Select cookware with flat bottoms that match the surface unit size. Using the proper cookware on the cooking area will improve efficiency.

Never leave surface elements unattended. Boil overs may cause smoking and greasy spills that 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 GLASS AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS
Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.

Clean cooktop glass with caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot surface.

Avoid scratching the cooktop glass with sharp objects.

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

Use care when opening oven door, lower oven door, or warmer drawer (some models). Stand to the side of the appliance when opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or replace food in the oven.

Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching surfaces in this area when the oven is on may cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or 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 reposition. 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.

Do not cook food on the oven bottom. Always cook in proper cookware and always use the oven racks.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE

Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Do not allow grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire.

COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS

Bakeware
The material of bakeware affects how evenly and quickly it transfers heat from the pan to the food.

Material	Attributes	Recommendation
Shiny metal bakeware	Shiny, aluminum, and non-coated bakeware is the best for even heating. It is suitable for all baked goods.	Recommended cooking temperatures and times are based on shiny metal bakeware.
Dark metal bakeware	Dark bakeware cooks hotter than shiny bakeware.	Reduce the cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) when using dark bakeware.
Glass bakeware	Glass bakeware cooks hotter than shiny bakeware.Glass is convenient, as the same piece of bakeware can be used for cooking, serving, and storing food.	Reduce the cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) when using glass bakeware.
Insulated bakeware	Insulated bakeware cooks cooler than shiny bakeware.Insulated bakeware is designed for baking in gas ovens.	Increase the cooking temperature by 25° F (13-14° C) when using insulated bakeware.

Cooking Conditions
Conditions in your kitchen can affect the performance of your appliance when cooking food.

Cooking Results
Small adjustments may fix a problem with food not being as done as you like or more done than you like.

Cooking Tips
Use these additional tips to get the best results from your appliance.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

What is Electromagnetic Induction?
An induction cooking zone uses an electromagnet to induce heat in iron or steel cookware.

Below each cooking zone on an induction cooktop, there is a copper coil. When the cooking zone is turned on, the electricity turns the coil into a type of magnet that heats metal cookware on the cooktop.

Induction Features
Because heat starts in the cookware instead of the cooktop, induction offers several advantages.

Fast Heating: Cookware will heat up faster than on a conventional electric cooktop. Pay close attention to avoid scorching food when starting to cook. You may need to use a lower setting for cooking food than you are used to.

Precise Control: The heat going into the cookware will change immediately when you change the setting of the cooking zone.

Even Heating: Cookware will typically heat more evenly on an induction cooktop, so you are less likely to have hot or cool spots in the cookware.

Cooler Cooktop: An induction cooktop will be cooler when you remove the cookware than a conventional electric cooktop would be. Because the cooktop doesn’t get as hot, you are not as likely to get burned. Spills are also less likely to burn onto the surface, making clean-up easier.

Energy Efficiency: Induction cooking wastes less energy than a conventional cooktop, so it uses less electricity.

Preparation
Before using your cooktop for the first time, apply a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most hardware, grocery, and department stores) to the ceramic surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective finish on the glass that will make cleaning easier when the cooktop is soiled from cooking and help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sounds
The magnetic field over the induction cooking zone may cause cookware to vibrate, creating a buzzing or humming noise. These sounds are not unusual, especially at high settings.

Figure 1: Induction noise

• Cookware that is not perfectly flat on the bottom may vibrate slightly against the cooktop.
• A loose handle may vibrate in its socket.
• Multi-material cookware may allow small vibrations in its structure.

Sounds are less likely to occur with heavier, higher quality cookware.

An induction cooktop may also produce faint clicking sounds from the electronic switches that maintain the desired cooking temperature.

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 3 and Figure 3.

Induction-ready cookware will often have a symbol printed on the bottom by the manufacturer.

Figure 2: Induction symbol

Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (see Figure 3). Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface of the cooking zone (see Figure 8 on page 14).

Figure 3: Ruler test 

Cookware Selection
Cookware selection is especially important when using an induction cooktop. The cookware must contain magnetic iron or steel to work on an induction cooktop. Common materials for induction cookware include the following:

• Stainless Steel – Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Durable, easy to clean, and resists staining. Some types of stainless steel will not work on an induction cooktop. Use the magnet test (Figure 4) to check stainless steel cookware.
• Cast Iron – A slow heat conductor that retains heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal – Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel on a magnetic metal will work on an induction cooktop. Use the magnet test (Figure 4) to check porcelain enamel cookware.

The Magnet Test
To see if a piece of cookware will work on your induction cooktop, try to stick a magnet to it (see Figure 3).

Figure 4: Magnet test

If the magnet clings firmly to the bottom of the cookware, it will work on your induction cooktop. If the magnet clings weakly or not at all, the cookware will not heat up on your induction cooktop.

Pan Sensing
Sensors beneath the cooktop surface require that certain cookware conditions be met before an induction cooking zone will operate. If a cooking zone is turned on and no cookware is detected, the zone display showing the power setting will flash (Figure 5).

Figure 5: Flashing error message

The conditions that generate a flashing message are illustrated in Figure 8. If the situation is not corrected, the cooking zone will automatically turn off after three minutes. It’s a good idea to lower the power setting before correcting the pan sensing message.

Minimum and Maximum Pan Size
The cooktop graphics are guides to minimum and maximum pan size for each cooking zone.

Induction cooking zones require a minimum pan size in order to activate. The inner ring on each cooking zone indicates the smallest pan size (Figure 7). If a suitable piece of cookware is centered properly but is too small, the display will flash and the pan will not heat. Select a larger pan or use a different cooking zone.

The outer ring on the cooktop graphic indicates the recommended maximum pan size for that zone (Figure 6). Do not use pans with bottoms that extend beyond the outer circle for a cooking zone. The cookware must make full contact with the ceramic glass surface. Cookware should not rest on or touch the metal edges of the cooktop.

Figure 6: Pan sizes

Figure 7: Pan sizes for best results

For most even heating, use pans that fit the cooking zone markings. If the pan is not a perfect fit for the marking, using a larger pan is better than using a smaller pan.

Cookware base material has good magnetic characteristics.  Cookware centered correctly on cooking zone. Flat pan bottom and straight sides. completely and is level on the cooktop surface. Pan is properly balanced.

Cookware base material is non-magnetic.  Cookware not centered on cooking zone. Curved or warped pan bottoms or sides. Pan bottom rests on cooktop edge. Heavy handle tilts pan.

Figure 8: Pan sensing conditions

Induction Cooking
When turned on, an induction cooking zone will not get hot. The induction cooking zone creates heat in the cookware, not in the cooktop. Heat is not created unless there is an iron or steel object on the cooking zone.

Cook Zone Setting Display
The Setting Display will show the setting for the cook zone.

Figure 9: Setting displays (left)

If there is no cookware in the cook zone, the setting indicator will blink, and the magnet will not turn on.

Hot Surface Indicator
The Hot Surface indicator light will turn on when heat is detected in the cooktop and will remain on until the surface has cooled to a safe temperature.

Figure 10: Hot surface indicator light

SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Cooktop Display Windows
The range blackguard provides a digital window for each of the cooking zones located on the cooktop. Power levels and messages are easily monitored and controlled using the window displays in combination with the corresponding controls.

Available Power Level Settings
The cooktop control will display power levels ranging from P (Figure 11), Hi (Figure 14) to Lo (Figure 12). The settings between 9 (Figure 15) and 2(Figure 16) decrease and increase in 1.0 increments. The lowest setting (Figure 12) will display just below the lowest digital setting of 2.

Power Boost Power Level (P)
When setting an induction cooking zone for the highest setting (to the POWER BOOST position), the display will initially show P (Power Boost) power level for up to 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the cooking zone will automatically return to the Hi setting (Figure 15). The P setting is only available immediately after activating a cooking zone.

ESEC Error Indicator Message (E)
An error message will be displayed (flashing E) (Figure 13) at power up (or after a power failure) if any of the surface settings were left in the ON positions. If a power failure should occur, set all of the four surface controls to the OFF position. This will reset the surface controls.

Be sure to reset the clock. Once the surface controls have been set to the OFF positions 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 E message remains in any display after following these procedures, contact an authorized servicer for assistance.

Lockout Window Message (-)
The (-) message will appear in all the surface control displays whenever the Lockout or Self-clean feature is active (Figure 17). Refer to the “Setting Oven Lockout” heading on page 21 for more details.

Induction surface cooking zonesFigure 18: Induction cooking zone control

Important: When the surface controls are activated a cooling fan will turn on and remain on until the control is turned off.

To operate an induction cooking zone:

1. Place correctly sized cookware on the cooking zone.
2. Press the On-Off key of the cooking zone until it beeps. A – (dash) will appear in the display.
3. Press the + or – key for the cooking zone (Figure 18) until you reach the desired setting (refer to the Recommended Induction zone settings in the table on this page).
4. When cooking is complete, turn the induction cooking zone OFF by pressing its on-off key before removing the cookware.

The cooktop has a sensor to detect cookware in the cooking zone. The cooking zone will not become active without proper cookware in position. See “Cooktop Display Windows” on page 16.

Frigidaire Induction Recommendations

Moving Cookware on a Smooth Cooktop
Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic glass smooth top. Cookware that has a rough or dirty bottom can mark and scratch the ceramic glass surface. Always start with clean cookware.

Pan Preheat Recommendations
Induction cooking may decrease the amount of time required to preheat a piece of cookware compared to cooking on a radiant or gas cooktop.

Remember that induction surface cooking will initially heat the cookware very quickly.

• The Hot Surface indicator light will turn on when heat is detected in a cooking zone and will remain on until the cooktop surface has cooled sufficiently.
• If cookware is moved away from the center of an active cooking zone, the cooking zone will become inactive. The setting display will flash until proper cookware is placed in the center of the cooking zone. When cookware is centered on the cooking zone, the zone will resume heating. If the cooking zone has no cookware for three minutes, it will automatically shut off.

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

•  Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is flat. Use a straight-edge to check the canner bottom.
• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the cooking zone markings or burner.
• It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops and to center canners on the burner grates.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.
• Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.
• Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information.
• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
• Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time.

BEFORE SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

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

Figure 19: Oven vent

Type of oven racks

Figure 20: Oven rack types

Figure 27: Oven rack positions

Note: The oven is equipped with cooling fans that turn on when the oven reaches a high enough temperature and will remain on until the oven cavity has cooled. Cooling fans may remain on for a time after the oven function has been canceled. This is normal.

Setting Bake
Bake cooks with heat that rises from the oven bottom. The heat and air circulate naturally in the oven. A reminder tone will sound indicating when the set bake temperature is reached and to place the food in the oven. The convection fan will turn on in preheat and then cycle on and off as needed during baking.

Bake may be set for any oven temperature between 170°F (77°C) to 550°F (288°C)

Baking tips

• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.
• Use the convection bake function for best results when baking cookies on multiple racks.
• Bake is the best function to use for baking cakes.
• For best results when baking layer cakes using two oven racks, place racks in positions 3 and 5 and place pans as shown in Figure 28.
• When using any single rack for baking cookies, cakes, biscuits, or muffins use rack position 3.
• Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation.
• Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware, resulting in dark or overbrowned foods. It may be necessary to reduce oven temperature or cook time to prevent overbrowning of some foods.
• Dark pans are recommended for pies; shiny pans are recommended for cakes, cookies, and muffins.
• Do not open oven door often. Opening the door will reduce the temperature in the oven and may increase cook time.
• Do not leave oven light on while baking.

Important: The oven will bake no longer than 12 hours. If you wish to bake for a longer period, see “Changing between continuous bake setting or 12 hour energy saving” on page 21 for detailed information.

• 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.
• If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied with this appliance they may be purchased from www.frigidaire.com.

Table 1: Broil Suggestions

* 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 organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77ºC).

NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from ele- ment. Always watch foods carefully to prevent burning.

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

Benefits of Convection Roasting:

• Some foods cook up 25 to 30% faster, saving time and energy.
• No special pans or bakeware required.
• Preheating is not necessary for most meats and poultry.
• Be sure to carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations or refer to the convection roast chart for additional information.

To set Convection Roast:

1. Place the insert on broiler pan. Place meat (fat side up) on insert.
2. Make sure the insert is securely seated on top of the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.
3. Place prepared food on oven rack and slide into oven.
4. Close the oven door.
5. Press Conv Roast.
6. Enter desired temperature using numeric keys.
7. Press OK/START.
8. When cooking is completed or to cancel convection roast press OFF.

Figure 32: Convection roasting

Convection Roasting tips:

• Preheating for convection roast is not necessary for most meats and poultry.
• Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.
• Smaller roasts and poultry should be cooked using rack position 2 or 3.
• Since convection roast cooks faster, may be able to reduce cook times as much as 25% from the recommended time of your recipe (check the food at this time). Then if needed, increase cook time until the desired doneness is obtained.
• Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations or refer to the convection roast recommendations for additional information.
• Do not cover foods when dry roasting – covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.
• When cooking meats use the broiler pan and insert. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.
• It is not recommended to roast chicken on a roasting rack. Use a deep pan instead.

Table 2: Convection roasting temperature and time recommendations* 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 organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77ºC)** Stuffed turkey requires additional roasting time. Shield legs and breast with foil to prevent over browning and drying of the skin.

Air Fry
The Air Fry feature works best for single rack baking with packaged and convenience foods and can be programmed for temperatures between 170°F and 550°F.

Follow the recipe or package directions for food preparation quantity, time, and temperature.
Important:

• Air Fry is designed for baking on a single oven rack. Food should be arranged in single layers on a pan.
• When using Air Fry, use dark bakeware with low or no sides and place food on rack position 4 for best results.
• Leave oven light off 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.

Setting the Sabbath Feature (for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)
For further assistance, guidelines for proper usage, and a complete list of models with the Sabbath feature, please visit the web at www.star-k.org.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Important:

• Do not attempt to activate any other oven function except Bake while the Sabbath feature is active. The following keys will function correctly when the Sabbath feature is active: 0-9 number keypad, Bake, OK/START, and OFF. All other keys should not be used once the Sabbath feature is active.
• You may change the oven temperature once baking has started. Press Bake, use the numeric keypad to enter the oven temperature change (170°F to 550F°), and press OK/START (for Jewish Holidays only).
• Remember that the oven control will no longer provide audible tones or display any further changes when the Sabbath feature is active.
• The oven will remain on until canceled and therefore may only be used once during the Sabbath/Jewish Holidays.
• If a delay start time longer than 11 hours and 59 minutes is desired, set the oven control for the 24 hour day display mode setting. See “Setting 12 Hour or 24 Hour display mode” on page 21 for more information.

To program oven to Bake with default oven temperature of 350°F and activate the Sabbath feature:

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day.
2. Arrange oven racks, place bakeware in oven, and close oven door. Press Bake.
3. Note: If Delay Start is desired enter the time at this point. See “Setting Delay Start” on page 26 for detailed instructions.
4. Press OK/START.
5. Press and hold Self Clean and Steam Clean simultaneously for about 3 seconds to set the Sabbath feature. Once the feature is set, SAb will appear in the display indicating the oven is properly set for the Sabbath feature (Figure 34).

The food may be safely removed from the oven while still in the Sabbath feature, however the oven cannot be turned back on until after the Sabbath/Holidays. After the Sabbath observance turn off the Sabbath feature.

Press and hold both Self Clean and Steam Clean keys for at least 3 seconds simultaneously to turn the Sabbath feature off. SF will disappear from the display, and the oven may be used with all normal functions.

Keep Warm
Keep Warm should only be used with foods that are fully cooked and at serving temperatures. Keep Warm will keep foods warm and ready for serving at 170° F (77°C) until canceled.

To set Keep Warm:

1. If needed, arrange oven racks and place cooked food in oven.
2. Press Keep Warm: HLd will appear in the display. (If no other keys are touched within 25 seconds the request for Warm will clear.)
3. Press OK/START. Warm will automatically turn on and remain on until cancelled.

Note: To turn Keep Warm off at any time, press OFF.

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

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

Important notes:

• Completely remove all oven racks and any accessories from oven cavity to avoid damage to oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolor.
• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop including cookware, utensils, and any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures from a self clean cycle and will melt.
• Do not spray oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom (Figure 36). These areas heat sufficiently 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, damage, or remove the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket and compromise the performance of the oven. Figure 36: Areas to clean and areas to avoid (gasket)
• The kitchen area should be well ventilated using an open window, ventilation fan, or exhaust hood during the first self clean cycle. This will help eliminate the normal odors.
• Do not attempt to open the oven door when the OVEN LOCK indicator light is flashing. Allow about 15 seconds for the motorized door latch mechanism to completely lock or unlock the oven door.
• When the clean time finishes, the oven door will remain locked until the range has cooled sufficiently. In addition to the clean time that was programmed, you must allow about 1 additional hour for the oven to cool before you will be able to open the oven door.

Setting Self Clean
To set self clean:

1. Be sure the oven is empty and all oven racks are removed. Remove all items from the oven. Be sure oven door is completely closed.
2. Press Self Clean. The default 3 hour clean time will appear in the display. You may accept the 3 hour clean time or choose a different clean duration by entering any time between 2 and 4 hours clean time by entering the time using the numeric keys.
3. Press OK/START. The warning to REMOVE RACKS will flash in the display to remind you that oven racks should be removed before a self clean.
4. Press OK/START to activate self clean.
5. The warning will end and the motor door lock will begin locking the oven door and Self Clean will start.

Important: 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. Once the oven door has locked, CLEAN will appear in the display indicating self clean has started.

Do not force the oven door open when self-clean is 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.

When self clean is finished:

1. CLEAN message will turn off, and Hot will appear in display window.
2. Once the oven has cooled down (about 1 hour) and Hot is no longer displayed, the oven door may be opened.
3. When the oven interior has completely cooled, wipe away any residue or powdered ash with a damp cloth or paper towel.
   

   ⚠️CAUTION 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.

Setting Delay Start Self Clean

To start a delay self clean with default clean time of 3 hours and a start time of 9:00 o’clock:

1. Be sure the clock is set with the correct time of day, the oven is empty, and all oven racks are removed. Be sure oven door is completely closed.
2. Press Self Clean
3. Press Delay Start.
4. Using numeric keypad, enter 9 0 0.
5. Press OK/START to accept.

If it becomes necessary to stop self clean when active:

1. Press OFF.

Important: If self clean has heated the oven to a high temperature, allow enough time for the oven to cool. Before restarting self clean, be sure to read important notes below.

Important note:

• If your clock is set with the (default) 12 hr display mode, the delay start for a self clean can only be programmed to start up to 11 hours and 59 minutes after the time showing in the display (be sure to set the clock to current time before programming a Delay Start). To set a delay start Self Clean to begin 12 or more hours (maximum is 23 hours and 59 minutes) after the time of setting, be sure to first set the control in the 24 Hr display mode.
• If self clean was active and then interrupted by a power failure or canceled before the oven was thoroughly cleaned, it may be necessary to run another self clean cycle.
• If the oven temperature was high enough when self clean was interrupted the oven control may not allow another self clean cycle to be set for up to 4 hours.

Steam Clean
The Steam Clean feature offers a chemical free and time saving method to assist in the routine cleaning of small and light soils. For heavier baked on soils use the Self Clean feature.

Be sure the oven is level and cool before starting Steam Clean. If the oven temperature is above room temperature a triple beep will be heard and the function will not start. Steam Clean produces best results when started with a cool oven

To set a Steam Clean cycle:

1. Remove all racks and oven accessories.
2. Scrape or wipe loose debris and grease from the oven bottom.
3. Pour 1 cup of tap water onto the oven bottom. (Figure 37) Close oven door.Figure 37: Add 1 cup of tap water
4. Press Steam Clean.
5. Press OK/START. St Cn will appear in the display.
6. To see the time remaining in the Steam Clean cycle press the Steam Clean key once. Do not open the door during this time. If door is open while in Steam Clean for more than 4 minutes an open door alarm will sound.
7. When the steam clean cycle is complete an alert will sound and the END message will show in the display. Press OFF to return to the clock.
8. Take care opening the door when the steam clean is finished. Stand to the side of the oven out of the way of escaping vapor.
9. Wipe oven cavity and bottom. Do not clean oven door gasket (Figure 38). Avoid leaning or resting on the oven door glass while cleaning cavity.
10. To cancel Steam Clean at any time press OFF.

Figure 38: Clean around the oven door gasket

Important: Opening oven door during Steam Clean cycle prevents the water from reaching the temperature needed to clean. If the door is left open once Steam Clean starts, an alarm will sound alerting you to close the door.

• For best results, clean oven immediately after the cycle is complete. Steam clean works best for soils on the oven bottom.
• Place a paper towel or cloth in front of the oven to capture any water that may spill while wiping out.
• A non abrasive scouring pad, stainless steel sponge, plastic scraper, or eraser style cleaning pad (without cleaner) can be used for difficult soils. Moisten pads with water before use.
• Do not leave the residual water in the oven for any length of time.
• 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.
• Local water sources often contain minerals (hard water). If hard water deposits occur, wipe cavity with a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar or 50/50 solution of lemon juice and water.
• Steam Clean cannot be programmed with a delay start.
• If Steam Clean results are not satisfactory, run a Self  Clean. See “Self Clean” on page 34.

CARE AND CLEANING

Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major cleaning later.

Figure 39: Use cleaners with caution

Cooktop Maintenance
Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most hardware, grocery, and department stores) to the ceramic surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sliding pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.

Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic, or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.
Do not:

• Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
• Use cookware with dirt or dirt build up on the bottom; always use clean cookware.
• 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 40: Cooktop care

Cooktop Cleaning

For light to moderate soil:
For light to moderate soil: Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly to the cooktop. Use a clean paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue. Do not use the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of cooktop cleaning cream directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a non-abrasive cleaning tool, applying pressure as needed. Do not use the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop cleaning cream and buff the surface clean.

Aluminum Foil and Utensils
