3. BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

⚠️ WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

3.1 About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop

⚠️ WARNING! Refer to Care and Cleaning.

The ceramic glass cooktop has heating elements below a smooth glass surface. The designs on the ceramic cooktop outline the areas of the surface elements underneath. Always match the pan size with the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop. Use only flat-bottomed cookware.

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. It makes cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

ℹ️ IMPORTANT

• The cooktop should not be used as a cutting board or work surface.
• Dropping heavy or hard objects on the cooktop may crack it.
• It is not recommended to place food directly on the cooktop surface (without using kitchen utensils), as it will be difficult to clean and food residue may smoke and create a potential fire hazard.
• Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic glass cooktop. Any cookware that has a rough or dirty bottom can scratch the ceramic cooktop. Always start with clean cookware.

? NOTE Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the element to cycle on and off, even at the HI setting.

Read the detailed instructions for coil cooktop cleaning in the Care and Cleaning section and the Troubleshooting checklist section of this User Manual.

3.2 About the Radiant Surface Elements

The type and size of cookware, the number of surface elements in use, and their settings affect the amount of heat that spreads to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns.

The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises, the element glows red. To maintain the selected setting, the element cycles on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle.

For efficient cooking, turn the element off several minutes before cooking is complete. This allows residual heat to complete the cooking process.

⚠️ CAUTION! Surface elements may appear to have cooled after they are turned off. The element surface may still be hot, and burns may occur if the element or surrounding area is touched before it cools to a safe temperature.

Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrapping on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls or reflector pans. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

ℹ️ IMPORTANT Do not allow aluminum foil or any material that can melt to make contact with the cooking element. If these items melt on the cooktop, they damage the cooktop.

3.3 Using Proper Cookware

The size and type of cookware used will influence the heat setting needed for best cooking results.

Correct cookware:

• Flat bottom and straight sides.
• Tight fitting lids.
• Weight of handle does not tilt pan. Pan is well balanced.
• Made of material that conducts heat well.
• Easy to clean.
• Cookware size matches the amount of food to be prepared.
• Cookware diameter matches the size of the Cooking Zone.

Incorrect cookware:

• Bottom curved or warped.
• Cookware larger than the Cooking Zone by more than 0.5 inch (12 mm).
• Heavy handle tilts pan.
• Pan is much smaller than the Cooking Zone.

Cookware material types:

• Aluminum - excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and pitting).
• Copper - excellent heat conductor but discolors 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 retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - heating characteristics may vary depending on base material.
• Glass - slow heat conductor

ℹ️ IMPORTANT Never place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time, unless the cooktop has a bridge element and the cookware is specifically designed for the purpose. Incorrect use may cause the ceramic cooktop to fracture.

3.4 Types of Ceramic Cooktop Elements

The circles on the ceramic glass cooktop outline the size and type of element underneath. The elements on your cooktop depend on the model.

[Diagram showing different types of ceramic cooktop elements labeled A, B, C, and D]

A. Single element
B. Warm Zone (some models)
C. Simmer to Boil
D. Dual element (some models)

3.5 Element On and Hot Surface Indicator Lights

The ELEMENT ON indicator light will turn on when one or more elements are turned on. A quick glance at this indicator light when cooking is finished is an easy check to be sure all surface elements are turned off.

The HOT SURFACE indicator light will turn on when the burner is hot enough to cause burns and will remain on after the burner is turned off until the surface has cooled to a safe temperature.

3.6 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 available as well as follow recommendations for home canning procedures.

Canning recommendations:

• 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 canner bottom.
• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element 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 setting 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 Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information.
• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.

⚠️ CAUTION! Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time.

4. SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

⚠️ WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

4.1 Setting Radiant Surface Elements

Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking. The surface control knobs do not have to be set exactly on a particular spot. Use the prints as a guide and adjust the control knob as needed.

A glowing red surface heating area extending beyond the bottom edge of the cookware indicates the cookware is too small for the surface heating area.

Suggested settings for radiant elements

The suggested settings are based on cooking with medium-weight aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

The size and type of utensil used and the amount and type of food being cooked will influence the setting needed for best cooking results.

⚠️ CAUTION! Radiant surface elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The element may still be hot and burns may occur if the element is touched before it has cooled sufficiently.

Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings on top of the range when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the surface elements.

Do not use aluminum foil to line surface drip bowls or reflector pans. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

ℹ️ IMPORTANT Do not allow aluminum foil, or any material that can melt, to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these items melt on the cooktop, they will damage it.

Never place a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time, unless the cooktop has a bridge element and the cookware is specifically designed for the purpose. Incorrect use may cause the ceramic cooktop to fracture.

4.2 Setting Single Radiant Surface Element

To operate single radiant elements (including Simmer to Boil element):

1. Place correctly sized cookware on surface element.
2. Push in and turn the surface control knob in either direction to the desired setting (refer to the "Suggested settings for radiant elements" table.
3. When cooking is complete, turn the radiant surface element OFF before removing the cookware.

Simmer to Boil Element

Simmer to Boil element (some models) is designed to quickly heat and cook large amounts of food in large pots. Simmer to Boil elements are clearly labeled on the cooktop.

Setting Warm Zone (Some Models)

Use the warm zone to keep cooked foods hot.

Always start with hot food. It is not recommended to heat cold food on the keep warm zone. All food placed on the warming zone should be covered with a lid to maintain quality.

For best results, when warming pastries or breads, the cover should have an opening to allow moisture to escape. Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic may melt onto the surface and be very difficult to clean. Use only dishware, utensils, and cookware recommended for oven and cooktop use on the keep warm zone.

To activate the Warm Zone, press the Warm Zone button on the control panel.

? NOTE Unlike the single and dual surface elements, the Warm Zone will not glow red when it is hot. To avoid burns always use potholders or oven mitts when removing food from the cooktop, including the Warm Zone, as cookware and plates will be hot.

5. BEFORE USING THE OVEN

⚠️ WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

5.1 Oven Vent Location

• Foods may cook faster, saving time and energy.

Baking tips:

• Use Convection Bake for best results when baking cookies on 2 racks.
• Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads.
• When baking cakes using two oven racks, place bakeware like shown on the picture below.

[Illustration showing recommended rack positions for two-rack baking]

For single rack baking, use rack position 4.

For two rack baking, use rack position 3 (flat) and 6 (flat).

• If your recipe is not written for convection baking, reduce the oven temperature by 25° or use Convection Convert option.
• 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 faster.
• 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.

When using any single rack for baking cookies, cakes, biscuits, or muffins use rack position 4.

6.7 Setting Air Fry

The Air Fry function works best for single rack baking. It works well with most recipes and can be programmed for temperatures between 170°F and 550°F. Follow the instructions on the food packaging regarding quantity, time, and cooking temperature.

Before using Stone-Baked Pizza:

• Wipe the Pizza Shield, Stone, and Peel with a soft, dry cloth to remove debris. Do not use water on the Pizza Shield.
• To hear timing alerts during the cooking process, touch General Settings and select Volume Level.

Prepping and Assembling:

• Select Stone-Baked Pizza on the control panel and follow instructions. The oven will preheat for 30 min.
• Prepare your pizzas while the oven is preheating. Stretch your fresh, room-temperature dough on a flat, floured surface - a cutting board or on the countertop).
• Do not stretch or roll out your dough on the Peel.
• Once you have rolled out your dough, sprinkle 1½ tbsp of cornmeal on the Peel before placing the dough on the peel, ensuring it stays within the 14 inch circular marks.
• Place dough on the cornmeal dusted peel and add your sauce, cheese and toppings. All proteins should be pre-cooked.
• Before placing the pizza into the oven, gently shake the peel to ensure the pizza is not sticking. If needed, lift edges and add more cornmeal.

Pro tips for making pizzas:

• Store-bought fresh pizza dough is usually 16 oz (450 g) - enough for two pizzas.
• Let refrigerated dough sit at room temperature for at least 1 h before baking. Frozen dough with vary, follow packaged instructions.
• To shape by hand, press from the center outward avoiding the edges for a lighter, puffier crust.
• If the dough keeps shrinking back, let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
• If the dough tears, pinch it back together or let it rest for a few minutes.
• A pizza roller creates a more uniform shape but may result in a less puffy crust.
• Too many toppings or too much sauce can make the crust soggy and difficult to cook evenly.
• Add fresh ingredients like basil and arugula after cooking for the best flavor.
• Fresh, high-moisture mozzarella works better than shredded mozzarella cheese.

Storage of the Stone-Baked Pizza set:

• Once the Pizza Shield and Pizza Stone are cooled down, remember to remove them from your oven before you start any other cooking function. Lift Shield and Stone together, using incorporated handles on side, as the Stone is not attached. Once removed, the Stone can be handled and placed in storage drawer. You can also store the Pizza Shield inside the bottom drawer of your appliance when you are not using it.
• Flip the Shield upside down and insert it to the drawer, with the back of the Shield toward the front of the drawer.

⚠️ CAUTION! The Pizza Stone is very hot, may cause serious burns! Wait at least one hour before removing it from the oven. Always use protective gloves or mittens.

⚠️ WARNING!

• Remove and dispose of all packaging materials from pizza kit.
• Only use pizza kit with original appliance, do not use in other cooking devices.
• Do not leave Pizza Peel on Stone to cook pizza.
• Do not store Pizza Peel in Storage Drawer.
• Do not use hands to push pizza onto Stone.
• Do not touch hot Stone with bare hands.
• Do not submerge the Stone in the water or clean it in dishwasher.

6.10 Air Sous Vide Tips

Sous Vide is ideal for cooking meats to achieve tenderness without overcooking.

How Sous Vide Works:

Sous Vide is a French term meaning "under vacuum". It involves vacuum-sealing food in plastic pouches and then cooking it using hot water or air. The appliance uses hot air circulating around sealed pouches to cook food slowly at relatively low temperatures: 100°F to 205°F (38°C to 94°C).

Benefits of Sous Vide:

• Food does not lose flavor or aroma due to evaporation.
• Vitamins and minerals do not escape during cooking.
• The low cooking temperature leaves meat and fish more tender.
• Less spice is needed, as food keeps more of its natural flavor.
• The low cooking temperature greatly reduces the risk of overcooking. The food never gets hotter than the intended serving temperature.
• Timing is less critical. If different dishes are finishing at different times, food that has reached serving temperature can wait, since it stays at serving temperature in the cooking medium.

Sous Vide Table:

Food Safety: Because Sous Vide cooks at relatively low temperatures, safe food handling is especially important:

• Always keep raw food in safe conditions before you start cooking.
• Clean the raw food before you start cooking.
• Use Sous Vide Table below to find the recommended cooking time and temperature for the food.
• Food should be between 34°F and 37°F (normal refrigerator temperatures) when preparing to place food in Sous Vide vacuum pouch.
• Sous Vide dishes are best served immediately after cooking. If food is not served immediately, use an ice bath to chill it quickly and then keep it refrigerated for up to 3 days.
• Do not use Sous Vide to reheat leftovers.
• Do not allow raw food to contact cooked food during preparation. Do not use the same tools on different food items without washing them.
• If the recipe includes raw eggs, keep the whites and yolks from touching the outsides of the shells.
• Blanching in boiling water or searing in a pan before Sous Vide cooking can destroy surface bacteria to improve food safety.
• Do not use Delay Start with the Sous Vide function.
• Do not use a meat probe with the Sous Vide function. Food needs to be sealed air-tight in a pouch for Sous Vide cooking.

6.11 Vacuum Sealing for Sous Vide

Sous Vide cooking in your oven requires a vacuum sealer and vacuum pouches. The pouch needs to be sealed so no air or liquid can leak out. A pouch that leaks will produce poor cooking results and may produce smoke and residue that can burn during future cooking, or when using Self Clean. Follow the instructions that come with your sealer and pouches.

Use pouches that are specified for your sealer and for Sous Vide cooking.

• Do not reuse vacuum pouches.
• Put food in one layer in the pouch for even cooking.
• It is recommended to use one food portion per vacuum pouch.
• For most Sous Vide cooking, use the highest vacuum setting for best cooking results.
• Make sure that the closure of the pouch is clean to get a good seal.
• If cooking at higher temperatures (above 160°F / 71°C), double-seal the pouch.
• Vacuum pouches are solely for Sous Vide cooking and should not be used for regular baking or broiling.

6.12 Sous Vide Cooking

? NOTE If cooking multiple items at once, you may want to write the contents on the outside of the pouches before filling and sealing them.

1. Prepare the food and cut all of the ingredients.
2. Place the ingredients in the plastic pouch for your vacuum sealer. Add seasonings for cooking.
3. Vacuum seal the pouch, ensuring all air is removed and the seal is air-tight. If not cooking immediately, store the pouch in a refrigerator until it is ready to cook.

Setting Sous Vide

ℹ️ IMPORTANT Since Sous Vide cooking allows for a suggested minimum cooking time and a target time, it is recommended to set the timer to at least the minimum time or to any time up to the target suggested time. With Sous Vide cooking, there is a maximum cooking time which allows the user more flexibility when cooking with no specific end time.

? NOTE Use the settings recommended for the type of food in Sous Vide table.

6.13 Setting Dehydrate

For best results when dehydrating food use the Air Fry Tray which allows air to circulate all around the food for faster preservation.

The optional Air Fry tray may be purchased from www.frigidaire.com.

Tips:

• Always use clean equipment and utensils.
• Keep meat and poultry refrigerated below 40°F (4°C) before dehydrating.
• Cut food in evenly sized pieces. Slices should be even and ¼ to ½ inch thick. This will ensure all pieces are dehydrated at the same time.
• Use good quality fruits, vegetables, and meats. Overripe or bruised fruits and vegetables may turn black while dehydrating.
• Use lean cuts of meat or trim off excess fat.
• Use a paper towel to dry meat before dehydrating.
• Store dehydrated foods in airtight containers. If moisture appears in containers, the food was not dehydrated properly.
• Follow USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture) recommendation when dehydrating.

To set Dehydrate:

1. Arrange food in a single layer on the Air Fry Tray.
2. Select Slow Cook from Oven Modes and choose Dehydrate from the submenu.
3. Set the temperature.

⚠️ CAUTION! Even though Sous Vide cooks at relatively low temperatures, use care when handling the pouch and its contents, which will be hot to the touch. Only use temperatures below 140°F (60°C) for cooking foods that can be safely eaten raw.

ℹ️ IMPORTANT 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, USDA) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For beef medium 160°F, well done 170°F (77°C). Visit the USDA Food Safety and Inspection website at www.fsis.usda.gov.

To set Air SousVide:

1. Select Slow Cook from Oven Modes and choose Air SousVide from the submenu.
2. Touch Air SousVide. Display shows the default temperature 130°F (54°C).
3. Set the temperature or use the default setting.
4. Touch START.
5. To cancel cooking at anytime press OFF.
6. Open the plastic pouch, remove the food.
7. Finish with a final searing or grilling for a nice crust and roast flavor.
8. Add final seasonings or sauces if needed, and serve.

7. CARE AND CLEANING

⚠️ WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.

7.1 General Information

7.2 Cooktop Maintenance

? NOTE Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop.

First use

Apply a ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most hardware, grocery, and department stores) to the ceramic surface. A cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective finish on the glass and help to prevent scratches and abrasions. Clean and buff with a clean paper towel. This makes cleaning easier when soiled from cooking.

? NOTE Sliding pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. After the cooktop is cool, use a cleaning cream and remove them immediately. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.

⚠️ CAUTION! Cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass cookware with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface.

Do not the following on the cooktop:

• Slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop.
• Use cookware with dirt or dirt buildup on the bottom. Always use clean cookware.
• Use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen.
• Cook food directly on the cooktop surface without a pan.
• Drop heavy or hard objects on the ceramic glass cooktop, they may cause it to crack.

7.3 Cooktop Cleaning

⚠️ CAUTION! Before cleaning the cooktop, make sure the controls are turned to the OFF position and the cooktop is cool. The glass surface can be hot from the contact with hot cookware, and burns may occur if you touch the glass surface before it is cooled sufficiently.

⚠️ WARNING! Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your health, and can chemically damage the ceramic-glass surface.

Light to moderate soil:

1. Apply a few drops of cleaning cream directly to the cooktop.
2. Use a clean paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface. Do not use the towel you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
3. Ensure thorough cleaning, do not leave any residue.

Heavy, burned-on soil:

1. Apply a few drops of cleaning cream directly to the soiled area.
2. Rub the soiled area, use a non-abrasive cleaning tool, apply pressure as needed.
3. Do not use the same pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.
4. If soils remain, carefully scrape them with a metal razor blade scraper. Hold the scraper at a 30-degree angle to the surface.
5. Remove any remaining soils, then apply a few drops of cleaning cream and buff the surface clean.

⚠️ WARNING! Do not use an abrasive type cleaning pad, it may damage the ceramic glass cooktop. Use only cleaning products recommended for cooktops with glass ceramic surface.

7.4 General Cleaning

Refer to the table at the beginning of this chapter for more information about cleaning specific parts of the oven.

Follow these cleaning precautions:

• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance 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 effort required for major cleaning later.

⚠️ CAUTION! Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. The oven may be hot and can cause burns. Remove all racks and accessories from the oven before cleaning. Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven. Provide adequate ventilation.
