your Use & Care Guide.

Before cooking for the first time
To get your oven ready to go, set your oven to bake at 350°F for about 30
minutes. As the range gets settled in your home, it’s normal to experience
some noises and smoke.

QUICK CARE
A little love goes a long way
Quick ongoing care keeps your range working great for years to come! Use a
ceramic cooktop cleaning cream before cooking for the first time to protect
your cooktop from scratches. To clean up spills after cooking, clean with warm
water and mild soap, or try our line of Frigidaire™ ReadyClean cleaners,
available on our website. Refer to your Use & Care Guide for more tips to keep
your ceramic cooktop clean.
Your range has a manual clean oven. Look in your Use & Care guide for instructions on how to safely clean the inside of your oven.
REMEMBER
- Be careful! The cooktop is durable, but is made from ceramic. Use with care.
- Do not spray cleaners on any electrical controls or switches.
FAQs
Why does my range make noises when I’m cooking?
Temp changes during preheat and cool-down can make parts of the range expand
and contract. The controls click as they work to create even cooking temps in
the oven and on the cooktop zones. Different fans run to heat up the oven or
cool down different parts of range, even when it’s off. These sounds are
normal.
This oven doesn’t work like my old one. What’s wrong?
We know adjustment isn’t always easy. As you get used to a new range, you may
need to test and adjust cooking times and temperatures for recipes. Consult
your Use & Care Guide for bakeware and cooking recommendations, and to see
detailed instructions on how to adjust temperature or call us if you need
help!
Why does my oven smoke when I use the broil setting?
Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is
excessive, place food further away from the element. Broil with the oven door
closed, and watch food to prevent burning.
Do you need a broiler pan, bakeware, or some smart new utensils to freshen
up your cooking?
