IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR GAS COOKTOP - 1

CAUTION

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 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.

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 heating element. The use of undersized cookware may expose a portion of the flame to direct contact and may result in the ignition of clothing or other items. Using the proper cookware on the cooking areas will improve efficiency.

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.

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 — Boil overs cause smoking and greasy spill overs that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for cook top use.

When you are flaming foods under a ventilating hood, turn the fan on.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

Cooking Tips

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

Cooking Tips
Baking
Rack placementFollow the instructions in “Setting Oven Controls” on starting on page 20.When using only one rack, place the rack so the food is in the center of the oven.
PreheatFully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies, cakes, biscuits and breads. Insert food immediately after the beep.
Checking foodUse the window and oven light when checking food. Opening the door may reduce baking performance.
Bake or Convection BakeConvection bake is the best function to use for baking on multiple racks. For best performance, see “Convection Bake” on page 25.

COOKING RECOMMENDATIONS

Cooking Tips

Food placementAllow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between bakeware for proper air circulation.
Broiling / Roasting
Broiling panFor best results when broiling, use a broil pan with a broil pan insert designed to drain the fat from the food, help avoid spatter, and reduce smoking. The broiler pan will catch grease spills, and the insert helps prevent grease splatters.If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied with this appliance, they may be purchased from Frigidaire.com.
Convection Cooking
Convection attributesConvection cooking uses a fan to circulate hot air around the oven and food. It browns food more evenly and reduces hot spots in the oven.Convection saves time when using multiple racks or cooking several food items at once.
Convection bakeReduce cooking temperature by 25^ F ( 13-14^ C) from the recipe unless the recipe is written for convection baking.Preheat the oven for best results.
Convection roastConvection roast is best for meats and does not require preheating for most meats and poultry.Reducing the cooking temperature for convection roast is not recommended. Carefully follow your recipe’s temperature and time recommendations, adjusting the cooking time if the recipe does not specify convection roasting time.Since convection roast cooks faster, cook time may be reduced by 25% to 40% depending on food type. You can reduce cook times by 25% from the recommended time of your recipe, and check the food at this time. If needed, continue cooking until the desired doneness is obtained.Use a meat probe if available with your appliance. Meat probes are also available from most grocery and home goods stores.Arrange oven racks so large cuts of meat and poultry are on the lowest rack of the oven.Do not cover foods when dry roasting - covering will prevent the meat from browning properly.When cooking meats, use the broiler pan and insert or a roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills and the insert helps prevent grease splatters. If you do not have one of these accessories, they may be purchased from Frigidaire.com.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Cookware Material Types

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:

  • 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. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
  • 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.
    • G I a s s - Slow heat conductor.

Gas surface burner types

The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners with different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quickly and in large amounts increases as the burner size increases.

  • Small burners are best used for low-flame heating of small amounts of food.
  • Standard burners can be used for most surface cooking needs.
  • The largest burner is best used for bringing large quantities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when preparing larger quantities of food. The large burner is located at the right front position on the cooktop.

Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a burner and set the flame size appropriately for the pan. Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the pan.

  • NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over two different surface cooking areas at the same time unless the cookware is specifically designed for the purpose.
  • DO NOT cook with a surface control knob left in the lite position ( 👍 ). The electronic ignitor will continue to spark. Turn the control knob out of the lite position and adjust the flame size.
  • Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt on the range cooktop. If items melt, they may permanently damage the appearance of the cooktop.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - IMPORTANT - 1

CAUTION

Do not place flammable items such as plastic wrappings, spoon holders, or plastic salt and pepper shakers on the cooktop 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 burners.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - CAUTION - 2

NOTE

  • When setting a surface control knob to the lite position, all of the electronic surface ignitors will spark at the same time. However, only the surface burner you are setting will ignite.
  • In the event of an electrical power outage, the surface burners may 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. Once the burner ignites, push in and turn knob out of lite then to the desired flame setting. Use caution when lighting surface burners manually.

Set proper burner flame size

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 the burner if flame is yellow-orange.

For most cooking: start on the highest setting and then turn to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking (Figure 9).

For deep fat frying: use a thermometer and adjust the surface 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 under-cooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown nor cook properly.

Figure 8: Flame settings

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; poaching; stewing
These settings are based on medium-weight metal or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other types of pans.

Figure 9: Recommended flame settings for cooking

CAUTION

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the cooking utensil. A higher flame wastes energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the flame (Figure 8).

Cooking with a griddle (some models)

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Cooking with a griddle (some models) - 1

natural_image 3D rendering of a rectangular tray with two handles (no text or symbols)

Figure 10: Griddle

The griddle is a versatile accessory that is perfect for cooking foods that require large flat surfaces such as pancakes, French toast, grilled sandwiches, bacon, and also for cooking different foods at the same time.

After use, let the griddle cool before washing. Hand wash with hot soapy water. Do not soak. Dry thoroughly. Do not put a griddle in a dishwasher.

If you would like to purchase a griddle, you can order one from Frigidaire.com.

Using the griddle:

Place the griddle securely on top of the burner grates. Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to medium low setting. Slow preheat ensures even heat distribution during the cooking process. DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Preheating on HI may warp the griddle and prevent even heat distribution.

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 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 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 aluminium foil or any other material. Steam or moisture may appear near the oven vent. This is normal.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Oven Vent Location - 1

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Oven Vent Location - 2

WARNING

Protective Liners — Do not use aluminum foil or any other material or liners to line the oven bottom, walls, racks or any other part of the range. Doing so will alter the heat distribution, produce poor baking results, and possibly cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire. During self clean, temperatures in the oven will be hot enough to melt foil.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - WARNING - 1

CAUTION

• Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven exterior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.
- Remove all oven racks before starting a self clean cycle. If oven racks are left inside the oven during a cleaning cycle, the slide ability of the oven racks may be damaged and all of the oven racks will lose their shiny finish.
• To prevent possible damage to the oven, do not attempt to close the oven door until all the oven racks are fully positioned back inside the oven cavity.

Types of oven racks
FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - CAUTION - 1

text_image flat oven rack Flat handle oven rack offset oven rack

Figure 12: Oven rack types

  • Flat oven racks may be used for most cooking needs and may be placed in most oven rack positions.
  • The offset oven rack (some models) provides additional step down positions from the standard flat rack design. The offset design positions the base of the rack about 12 of a rack position lower than the flat rack and may be used in most oven rack positions. To maximize oven cooking space, place the bottom oven rack in the lowest rack position for baking or roasting large cuts of meat.

Removing, replacing, and arranging flat or offset oven racks

Always arrange the oven racks when the oven is cool.

To remove - Pull the oven rack straight forward until it reaches the stop position. Lift up front of oven rack slightly and slide out.

To replace - Place the oven rack on the rack guides on both sides of oven walls. Tilt the front of oven rack upward slightly and slide the oven rack back into place. Be sure oven racks are level before using.

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.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Convection Roast - 1

WARNING

Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, use a fire extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on fire. Flour may be explosive.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - WARNING - 1

CAUTION

Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven racks, and cooktop will become very hot which can cause burns.

Figure 26: Convection roasting on lower oven racks

To use convection roast at a temperature of 350^ F ( 177^ C):

  1. Place rack in positions 1, 2, or 3.
  2. Place the meat on the broiler pan and insert.
  3. Make sure the insert is securely seated on top of the broiler pan. Do not use the broiler pan without the insert.
  4. Place meat (fat side up) on insert
  5. Place prepared food on oven rack and slide into oven.
  6. Close the door.
  7. Press the Conv key twice. Roast will appear in the display.
  8. Press START. The convection fan will turn on after 6 minutes.
  9. When cooking is completed or to cancel convection roast press OFF.

Convection Roasting tips:

• Preheating for convection roast will not be 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, you can 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.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

Cooking with Meat Probe

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry.

The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature.

When active, the probe displays the internal food temperature which is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check the thermometer.

For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Cooking with Meat Probe - 1

CAUTION

Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe cable or handles. Always insert and remove the probe using the provided handles, as shown in Figure 27, and always use a pot holder to protect hands from possible burns.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - CAUTION - 1

IMPORTANT

  • Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only the original probe provided. Connecting any other probe or device could result in damage to the oven control, electronics, and the receptacle.
  • Before starting self clean, double check that the probe is removed from the oven interior. Defrost frozen foods completely before inserting the probe.

Proper placement of probe in food.

- Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the center of the thickest part of meat or food (See Figure 28). For best results, do not allow the probe temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware.

Setting the Sabbath Feature (for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Setting the Sabbath Feature (for use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays) - 1

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 heating 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, the Bake Time, and Delay Start options (if needed). Any settings made prior to setting the Sabbath mode will be visible in the displays. The Bake Time option, if set prior to the Sabbath mode, will give one audible alert at the end of Bake Time.

The Sabbath mode will override the factory preset 6 hour energy saving mode, and the appliance will stay on until the cooking features are cancelled. If any of the cooking features are cancelled 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 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.

CAUTION

Food poisoning hazard. Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking. Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness. Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs, fish, meat or poultry, should be chilled in the refrigerator first. Even when chilled, they should not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour before cooking begins, and should be removed promptly when finished cooking.

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, 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 550°F°), and press 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 shut-off automatically after completing a Bake Time, Delay Start, or keep warm 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.

SETTING OVEN CONTROLS

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

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Self Clean - 1

CAUTION

  • Do not leave small children unattended near appliance. During self clean cycle, the outside of the oven can become very hot and cause burns if touched.
  • Do not line the oven walls, racks, oven bottom, or any part of the range with aluminum foil. This will cause permanent damage to the oven interior and destroy heat distribution, and will melt to the oven interior.
  • Do not force the oven door open. This will damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the oven door after the self clean cycle ends. The oven may still be very hot and cause burns. To avoid possible burns, stand to side of oven when opening door to allow steam or hot air to escape.
  • The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to fumes given off during the self clean cycle of any range. Move birds to a well ventilated room.

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 35). 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.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - Important notes: - 1

  3. Press START to activate self clean.

When the oven is set to run a self clean cycle, the motor door lock will begin locking the oven door. 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.

Important: 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.

FRIGIDAIRE LGGF3046TD - When self clean is finished: - 1

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:

Figure 37: Clean around the oven door gasket

Notes:

  • Opening oven door during Steam Clean cycle prevents the water from reaching the temperature needed to clean.
  • 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 38.

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