SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Operating induction cooking zones (cont’d)

IMPORTANT

The HE (hot element) message may appear in the display windows once a heating element or cooking zone is turned OFF and will remain ON until the heating surface area or areas have cooled sufficiently.

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 may damage the ceramic cooktop.

If the cookware is moved from the center of any active induction cooking zone, the pan sensor will detect the situation and the cookware will no longer heat. The affected cooking zone display window will flash until the cookware is moved back to center of cooking zone. If the cookware is placed back properly centered on the cooking zone the zone will resume heating. The cooking zone will remember the power level setting for up to 3 minutes before the cooking zone will automatically shut OFF.

Pan preheat recommendations

Be aware that induction cooking may decrease the amount of time normally required to preheat a cooking utensil when compared to cooking with a radiant element cooktop or gas surface burner.

Whenever using the cooktop or oven always pay close attention to all food items cooking and remain very attentive until all the cooking processes are complete.

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) website and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for home canning procedures.

Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom (see Cookware Recommendations section).

Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning using a range with a ceramic glass cooktop.

Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the cooking zone markings. It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on ranges with ceramic glass or open coil electic cooktops.

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.

IMPORTANT

NEVER place or straddle a cooking utensil over 2 different surface cooking zones heating at the same time. This will cause uneven heating results and could cause the ceramic cooktop to fracture.

The Frigidaire FPIF3093LF is a cutting-edge induction range that combines modern technology with user-friendly features, making it a standout choice for any kitchen. This electric range not only enhances the cooking experience but also promotes energy efficiency, ensuring that every meal is prepared with ease and precision.

At the heart of the FPIF3093LF is its induction cooking technology. Unlike traditional gas or electric stovetops, induction cooktops use magnetic fields to directly heat pots and pans, leading to faster cooking times and precise temperature control. This feature not only saves time but also reduces energy consumption, as heat is generated only where it is needed, resulting in less wasted energy.

The range is equipped with a spacious oven that boasts a generous capacity, allowing users to bake multiple dishes simultaneously or cook large meals without hassle. The true convection technology further enhances baking performance by circulating hot air throughout the oven, ensuring even cooking results no matter the dish. This feature is particularly beneficial for bakers, providing consistent temperatures for perfectly baked goods.

For added convenience, the Frigidaire FPIF3093LF comes with a variety of cooking presets and functions. With options such as self-cleaning, broiling, and delay start, users can easily customize their cooking experience to fit their schedules and preferences. The smooth-top induction surface is also easy to clean, as spills and splatters do not bake onto the cooktop, making post-meal cleanup a breeze.

Safety is another paramount consideration in the design of this range. With features like automatic shut-off and a hot surface indicator, users can cook with confidence, knowing that the appliance is designed with their safety in mind.

Aesthetically, the Frigidaire FPIF3093LF is sleek and modern, featuring a stainless steel finish that fits beautifully in any contemporary kitchen. The intuitive control panel is user-friendly, making it easy for cooks of all skill levels to navigate through its features.
