This document serves as a quick start guide for a Frigidaire gas range, providing essential information for setup, operation, and maintenance. It is designed to help users get acquainted with their new appliance efficiently.

Function Description

The Frigidaire gas range is a kitchen appliance designed for cooking food using both a gas cooktop and a gas oven. The cooktop features multiple burners for various cooking tasks, from simmering to quick boiling. The oven offers several cooking modes, including Bake, Broil, Convection Bake, and Keep Warm, catering to a wide range of culinary needs. It also includes a Self Clean function for convenient maintenance. The range is equipped with a digital display and control panel that allows users to select cooking modes, set temperatures, and manage timers.

Usage Features

Cooktop Operation:

  • Burner Setup: Before use, ensure burner caps are centered on the burners and cooking grates are properly in place.
  • Cookware Selection: Use cookware with flat bottoms to ensure direct contact with the burner grate for efficient heating.
  • Burner Sizing: The guide recommends using smaller burners for low heat or small amounts of food, standard burners for general cooking, and the largest burner for heating large pots of liquid.
  • Flame Size: Adjust the flame size so it does not extend beyond the outer edge of the pan to ensure safety and efficiency.

Oven Operation:

  • Rack Placement: Verify oven racks are in place before operating the oven.
  • Clock Setting: To set the clock, press the "Settings" key, then use the up or down arrows until "CLoC" appears. Press "Start," use the arrows to set the time, and press "Start" again.
  • First-Time Use: Before initial cooking, set the oven to Bake at 350°F for approximately 30 minutes. It is normal to experience some noises and smoke during this initial period as the range settles.
  • Bake Mode: Ideal for delicate foods requiring gentle heat to rise and move in the oven.
  • Broil Mode: Used for broiling and grilling foods under direct, high heat. The guide notes that broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke; it advises placing food further from the element if smoke is excessive and keeping the oven door closed to prevent burning.
  • Convection Bake Mode: Circulates oven heat continuously for even baking.
  • Keep Warm Mode: Maintains cooked foods at serving temperature.
  • Delay Start: Allows users to set the oven to begin a cooking cycle after a specified period.
  • Cook Time: Sets the oven to run for a specific duration and then automatically turn off.
  • Oven Light: Turns the interior light on and off with a touch and automatically activates when the oven door is open.
  • Lockout Feature: Deactivates the control panel to prevent accidental key presses, enhancing safety.
  • Settings Key: Used to set user preferences for various control functions.
  • Timer On-Off: Used to set or cancel the minute timer.
  • Up and Down Arrows: Used to scroll through temperature and time settings.
  • Start Key: Initiates cooking functions and sets the clock.
  • Off Key: Turns off all cooking functions.

General Usage Tips:

  • Noises and Smoke: The guide explains that temperature changes during preheat and cool-down can cause parts of the range to expand and contract, leading to noises. Clicking sounds from controls and fan operation are also normal. Smoke during initial use or broiling is also addressed as normal.
  • Cooking Adjustments: If the oven performs differently from previous appliances, users may need to test and adjust cooking times and temperatures for recipes. The guide recommends consulting the Use & Care Guide for bakeware and cooking recommendations or contacting support for assistance.
  • Gas Supply: For new ranges where the cooktop isn't working, the guide suggests checking if the gas supply lever was left off during installation.
  • Propane Conversion: Users can obtain a propane conversion kit from Frigidaire.com and should have it installed by a qualified professional.

Maintenance Features

Cooktop Maintenance:

  • Cleaning Spills: Users are advised to clean up spills quickly to prevent buildup on burners.
  • Burner Cleaning: Keeping cooktop burners clean is crucial for a complete, even, and perfect flame for cooking. The guide refers to the Use & Care Guide for detailed instructions on how to clean the burners.
  • Aluminum Foil: Do not use aluminum foil or any other materials to line the cooktop or any part of the oven.

Oven Maintenance:

  • Self Clean Cycle: The range includes a Self Clean function for automated cleaning.
  • General Cleaning: For quick ongoing care, the guide suggests cleaning with warm water and mild soap, or using Frigidaire ReadyClean™ cleaners.

Safety Reminders:

  • Open Flames: Exercise caution when cooking with open flames.
  • Burner Buildup: Clean up spills promptly to avoid buildup on burners.
  • Lining Materials: Do not use aluminum foil or other materials to line the cooktop or oven.
