Retro Tech: The Frigidaire Custom Imperial Flair Oven Resource Page
The Frigidaire Flair Forums
The Frigidaire Flair Forums have been moved to Google Groups. There you can buy and sell ovens and parts, get advice on your ovens and share you stories.
Manuals
There are two manuals available.
Frigidaire Owner’s Manual for All Models
A scanned copy of the Frigidaire Owner’s Manual for All Models, published in 1961 is available for download. Download the Frigidaire Owner’s Manual for All Models
Frigidaire Service Tech-Talk Manual
A scanned copy of the Frigidaire Service Tech-Talk Manual, published in April of 1960 is available for download. Please note that repairs should be done by a professional as working with electrical equipment can be extremely dangerous. We are providing this manual solely as a reference you can provide to a professional you hire.

Tips and Tricks
Make sure “Cookminder” knob is in the “Manual” position
If you find that some of your burners have stopped working or that your clock has stopped working, make sure the “Cookminder” knob is in the “Manual” position.
Where do i find my stove’s model number?
Pull the burner unit out and on the bottom of the back left burner cover plate should be a metal tag with the model number. It will likely start with “RCI”.
Check Your Fuses
Folks who have problems with their Flairs might want to check out the fuses: There is one below the right rear burner that controls the convenience outlet and there is one in the left rear corner of the area above the oven that controls the “speed heat” burner.
Wiring Diagram for Your Stove
Have a professional remove the top panel of your stove and on the back of the panel there should be a wiring and schematic diagram.

Seeking loving home for my retro stove — not a Fridgidaire but a Hardwick, circa late 40s, early 50s. Apt. renovations force me to give up this gorgeous appliance, which works great despite a few chips off the enamel top and a broken oven-door latch (I hold the thing closed with wire.)DC area if anyone interested.
I have the same oven but with one big oven instead of 2 small ovens. I am rebuilding my kitchen but the stove and oven were working fine except the clock. I also have an orginal Mutschler Custom Kitchen it was one the first all maple built in kitchens in the 1960. If any one is interested my email is pdqdb@cs.com. I live in San Francisco.
I have a frigidaire stove/oven combo. It is a dual oven stove with pull-out burners. The matching cabinet underneath is great for storage. Everything works. It has some minor scratches on one side. Other than that, it is wonderful. This stove is my pride and joy but we are moving and I have to sell it. It is electric. We are in central California.
We have one of the Frigidaire Custom Imperial stoves that we’d also like to sell. If anyone is in Louisiana (Lafayette area) or nearby (we are about an hour from Texas border) is interested in purchasing it, please e-mail us at tracy_wirtz@yahoo.com. We don’t know what to do with it but I don’t want it to just go to waste. Thanx
Bill from post 367, I just bought a house in Rochester NY and have a Frigidare Custom Deluxe double oven range that I’d be interested in parting with. Contact me if you’re interested.
I need a thermostat for a Model RCIH 645, pn#7526435 or a replacement Robert Shaw PN#5420-005. I saw that others were looking for the same part, any luck, I really need one.
mbrown30@cox.net.
Thanks, Mitch
In regards to 379, what does the interior of the oven look like?
There were insides that had black teflon coated surfaces that were removable. Dont use oven cleaner or anything Abrasive, use something like a plastic putty knifeautobody putty spreader or plastic spreader/scraper that is sold by Pampered chefs for an example.
After these Teflon panels are removed, there is a ceramnic/porcelin fine. Use no abrasives, a good grease cutter is lestoil or someting mild like that. Scothbrites can be effective in circular motions an alot of elbow grease. Stainless interiors and surfaces need to be treated nicely.
Hi to #379 from the coast of Maine I have use oven cleaner, and really nasty stuff, a little “goof off” .Fumes are awful be careful but it does a great job even on the glass.what a shine. ..
Also a dish of vinagar and turn on low will help loosen “stuff”.
I am now the owner of 3 custom crown Imperials.
All in working order by gosh.
O man !I didn,t know so many of these ranges are still alive and well!I have one for sale in southern Il.If your intrested email me .claudia55@sbcglobal.
Thanks for the tech manual. What a life saver.
FYI: Burners and thermostats are still available from Frigidaire! 800-599-7569, opt 3. You might ask for Jim. He was willing to dig for information in the printed parts catalogs- stuff that wasn’t in the computer.
Hello Flair Fans,
I’m Christian, the guy who runs the site, and I wanted to tell you about an update to the Flair page I did over the weekend.
We now have two new great resources:
1. The Frigidaire Service Tech-Talk Manual from 1960
2. The Frigidaire Flair Forums for buying, selling and simply talking about Flair ovens.
http://obviousdiversion.com/personal/frigidaire-flair/
If you have a stove you are selling or looking for, please go into the new forums and add your listing. It’s extremely quick and easy. The forums should be a lot more structured than this comment thread that you’ve all clearly outgrown.
As always, it’s all free to use. The costs are pretty low for such a thing and I’m happy to help out the community that’s gathered here.
I’d like to thank barb for supplying me with a paper copy of the manual which I then scanned in.
I am going to go through the almost 400 comments that exist on this page and consolidate all the information you’ve all suggested in an organized fashion. As a result, in about two weeks, the existing comments will be deleted so as not to confuse people.
Let me know if you have any feedback or requests.
Regards,
Christian

I have an identical unit to the one pictured above. I would describe the condition as good (photos available). It is located in the Phiadelphia area and I am interested in finding a buyer. If you have interest please provide an e-mail address and I will contact you directly
to John in the Phiadelphia area. That area by chance wouldn’t be Haddenfield NJ would it?
My aunt had a lovely home there and sold it with a Fair range. Just curious.
fresca@maine.rr.com
I just saw one of these in an antique mall for $299 as-is. I am blown away at it’s beauty! I have never seen anything like it! I just hope it is still there when I save up the money! I have to have it!
I am looking for the base for my double oven Flair, any color and the hard to find rotisserie. I would buy a whole flair, even unworking for extra parts for my baby.
Oh yeah, I live in NH so the distance is a factor. Thanks, Lisa
misslisalynn1@aol.com
If anyone is interested I have a unit identical to the one pictured above. It is located in the
Philadelphia area. I would descibe the condition as good. It would be ideal for parts or possibly a project unit. If anyone has interest please contact me at Jeyre38136@aol.com. I would be more then happy to forward pictures. Anxious to move the unit.
Love this site
I have a pink retro late 50’s or early 60’s stove by Fridgidaire, the one that mounted in the the wall, electric, still works well with a mounted clock on top. Kitchen is being redone. How much would it be worth for me to sell a working electric pink stove like this? Except for one chip, and needing to be cleaned up, there wouldn’t be anything wrong w/it.
I have a custom imperial rcib-645-2, how do I
remove from a built in wood cabinet without
damage to unit.
Keith, it is most likely bolted to the wooden base cabinet. Have you looked inside the top of the base cabinet? There would be, at most, four good sized bolts – two in front, two in back.
I have a Custom Deluxe Imperial Flair for sale in NW Ohio. It’s in great shape and everything works except the clock. It’s 30″ wide and is stainless steel and white. It does not have the cabinets under neath it. It was built into our kitchen. It came with our house which we bought about 1 1/2 years ago. We used the stove about a year and have since updated our appliances. Make offer! If you would like to see pictures, please email me at Felice3@nktelco.net
I have Flair Imperial single oven model RCI-635K. I am looking for a relay for the oven temperature control. Any hint or direction as to where I may find this part will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I have a 1962 Frigidaire Flair in excellent condition in San Francisco. If anyone is interested my email is pdqdb@cs.com and I will email the pictures. It is like the one pictured here but only 1 oven.
Hi Diane,We have a RCIB-635-2 single oven stove
and wondered how you tell what year it was made?
Thanks for now, Moe&Lori
I just acquired a 12FD-299-065-060106 Flair and have no idea what year it is and it doesn’t have the racks either. Could someone help me out? I am new to this but whe you get something for free and in good shape you sure can’t let it pass.
If I’m not mistaken, RCIB-635-2 was made in 1963 (or, more accurately, was the 1963 model year, a concept that Frigidaire was really into, being a division of GM)
As far as 12FD-299-065-060106, I have no idea. I’ve never seen a model number like that.
Great website. I am so excited about finding info about my Frigidaire Flair. Would like to hear from Kathrine in Central California about her stove. Might be interested.
I’ve never heard of any model numbers but
635 or 645 not one with 605,615 625,655,665.
Are they out there or is there another way to tell what year they were built?Yhanks Moe
I had the model number wrong.
Sorry about that. It is RCIB-645-2 and the serial numbers are 47C03062R. Iam still wondering if anyone could tell me what year this one is and how I could find the oven racks for it? can’t use the ovens if there aren’t any racks. lol Thanks Laurel
Susan and John,
My e-mail is simpsok@co.kern.ca.us
I have one for sale in Oakland CA (Bay Area) I have the manual and a meat thermometer as well.
Christian; We are trying to find out what year our stove is — Custom Imperial, serial # 39C664487, model RCIB – 645. It is a 40″, dual oven, white and black. Thanks.
The RCI-645 model is a 1973 model.
Mark,Could you tell me what year my stove?
Its a RCIB-635-2.
I have a rcib645-2 serial number 47c03062R, would the year on this be 1973 also?
I have a dual oven 1964 Flair,and am in need of the light control switch. You may find the date of manufacture by calling Fridgidaire in Dayton Ohio, You need your model and serial numbers.
I am rebuilding my Mother’s original 1964 Flair RCIB-645-2. Can anybody point me to a supplier of replacement parts for this great stove? Will need a burner socket and mounting hardware.
Thanks
Mike
Try Frigidaire direct at 800-599-7569. Ask for Jim at x7201. They have switches and elements, which I recently purchased for the exact model you have. The burner socke is a maybe, but its worth a try.
-Jon
Anyone remember or have any info on the companion side-by-side refer/freezer that went with the Custom Imperial? My Mother had both. And both were in the exact same pink color. It was a huge ‘refer. Both sides the same width.
Mike
I have one of these in the double oven model. It is white. It needs some work: the light mount needs to be repaired (would be hidden after repair) and the small broiler doesn’t work.
It doesn’t really go with our kitchen, and it probably won’t go with it when we update, so I would like to sell for best offer. Anyone interested? I’m in the Richmond, VA area
Thanks in advance, and good luck with your restorations.
Hi, our info reads 11FD 3213 and 6560106. Could you tell me what year this model is?
Thanks in advance,
Jim
I, too, have a wonderful rcib-645 Custom Imperial dual oven and pullout range. Has worked well for 45 years I hear. Just had the broiler element burnout on the big oven, and can’t find a replacement. I just tried the rotisserie for my first time. It has been my in-laws and this attachment hasn’t been used for at least 25 years that I know off. Shoved it in and it started right up and worked beautifuly. Please help me on this broiler element!
Thank you,
Alan
Alan – see post #38 for source of replacement broiler element.
Jon, I already tried that, and Dolores checked and called back…no joy. Is there anybody else, or is anybody parting out an old unit?
You’re right. I checked into the availability for this part and Dolores was right. There are no oven elements in stock: Left or right oven, broil or bake for the RCIB-645. Electrolux stopped production on those in December and February of 1999. Sigh…
Alan and others, I have a contact in NJ who has a RCIB-645 who is willing to sell whole or parts. Contact me at genovaj (at) stripe (dot) colorado (dot) edu [make that look like an email address] put “Flair” somewhere in the subject line, and I’ll pass along his email address.
Hey Everyone! I have once again updated the page including more information about where to find parts. A special shout out goes to Jon for contributing a diagram of what parts Frigidaire has available via their 800 number. Thanks again everyone.
we recently moved into our home in easton pa. i did not like this oven however have fallen in love with it after 3 years of using it, now i am down to 2 burners and want to relace them and i am having much diffuculty sooo iam looking ror an oven that maybe someone is getting rid of,i maybe able to use some of the parts my flair is the single oven 30 wide
Karen, are you looking for cooktop burners or oven bake/broil elements? Cooktop burners are readily available. Try any large appliance parts supply place. Oven elements are a different story…
I’m the proud owner of double oven Flair Custom Imperial without electric stovetop pull-out. Model #RBGH 345. I can’t find any mention of this oven. I was just cleaning it and every time I do, I marvel at the design detail.
Looking to replace the doors on my moms custom imperial. any ideas on part numbers or where to find them?
I just bought a house with a Frigidaire RBB 94 oven that works fine. It has the rotisserie attachment but I haven’t a clue how to use it. The previous owner left the manuals for the Jenn Aire dryer and the Sub Zero frig but nothing for this retro oven. Does anyone know how to work the rotisserie feature on these ovens? Thanks
I have a manual for the RCIB-645 that I’ve been meaning to digitize and archive, so this may be motivation to do that.
In the meantime, the instructions to use the rotiserie, plug the electric cord into the automatic appliance outlet on the unit’s face and set the cookmaster controls for the time to stop and set hours to cook, or just set the cookmaster to MAN to use the unit manually.
If your question was in regards to how to mechanically set the rotisserie up, I can’t be of any help. The oven manual does not describe this in any detail, and the picture there does not reveal much detail.
Hi Ann!!!
I don’t know how it is SUPPOSED to work, but I figured mine out like this. Before you start this whole shebang, you may want to take your spit to a barbeque specialty store and purchase a weight balancing wheel so the spit rotates freely–even if you food is unbalanced. If you are a Klutz like me, this is highly recommended.
First, BEFORE preheating the oven, remove the racks. I think the side rails stay in. Place the rotisserie rack with the pointy prong facing away from you on the back left. Fit the shallow rectangular roaster half into the inside of the rotisserie rack on the bottom to serve as a drip pan.
Place this assembly into the oven and push the “Pointy Prong” right into the hole in the back wall left corner of the oven. The gear will begin turning immediately. Now preheat the oven. While it is heating, spit the meat (or bird or rolled tofu roast, whatever), centering the food and balancing the spit. If you don’t need to preheat, you can mount the spit on the rack with the rotary gear hanging by the prong and put it all in at once. Otherwise, just mount the skewer when the heat is as desired.
Unless you NEED to baste the food, leave the oven door shut and just watch the pretty show through the door. That is why the door has a window. Every time you open the door and let the heat out, you have just added 8 minutes to the cooking time. Remember, if you add lots of root veggies (potatoes, turnips, carrots, etc) on a raised rack in the drip pan, you will get your whole meal done at once and with no extra pans to clean. Hope this is intelligle and helpful, I am short on Medications until Saturday morning. I don’t have a manual either, but such trivialities have never stopped me.
Good Luck,
Alan
If anyone is interested I have a unit identical to the one pictured above. It is located in the
Philadelphia area. I would descibe the condition as good. It would be ideal for parts or possibly a project unit. If anyone has interest please contact me at Jeyre38136@aol.com. I would be more then happy to forward pictures. Anxious to move the unit.
The rotisserie rack sits on one of the oven racks. At the back of the oven you will see a gear and a hole, thegear in the back of the oven engages with the spit and the hole at the back of the ovenis where the post on the rotisserie rackpresses in to start the motor.
I would be interested in measurement on the rack, I can get some reproduced.
I live in Toronto Ontario, and have a Canadian version of the Flair double oven and stove with a matching exhaust fan and hood, never seen one of those before. The whole thing is for sale, (ad in stoves for sale here: )
I do hope someone can get this remarkable unit and give it a good home.
Where do i find the serial number for my flair?
Remove the upper left hand burner, support and drip pan and look into the back of the burner openning and there should be a metal tag with the model and serial number on it riveted to the surface unit corner support.
The serial number plate could also be on the bottom left front of the Burner drawer attached to the metal cover plate. It is possible to be on the inside if the Metal cover plate is put on backward.
i am looking for a thermoustat with the copper capillari tubes that hang inside the oven for a single flair oven that is a 1966 or 1967.
I am looking for a light socket for my grandmothers custom imperial (for the large oven) The bulb broke and when I tried to take it out the hole thing fell apart it is a 1962 she thinks.
[...] We actually have this oven in our kitchen. It is super cool and we are in love with it, but we just can’t work it into our new kitchen design. It is going to be a sad day when we part with it. I found this Retro Tech website that has lots of good info and it looks like there is a bit of a Flair following out there. We saw the stove in a typical kitchen display at the JFK Library in Boston and it also was the stove that Samantha Stevens used on the show Bewitched (see below). Recently I spotted this oven on the TV show Joey.

Hi,
I need to find the model # for my frigidaire custom imperial Flair – 2 door wall unit oven. It is only a double oven in the wall,no stove connected to it. It is chrome and the right oven is larger than the one on the left. The doors lift straight out and up. This is a built in oven. I have looked every where on it, and cant find the model# Please let me know where I should look.
Thanks,
Love my flair too,
Holly
Hi everyone,i have similar flair as pictured on thi site in mint condition,all works.i have no space for it in my kitchen,and want to sell it.
it has ben in my garage for 18 years now.a masterpiece.
i live in salt lake city,utah and if interested my email is goranbl@msn.com
price is $400.00 ,thank you all.
Ok! So we have a flair in avacado greed WITH the instruction manual if anyone is interested, make me an offer! It works great. One burner is “iffy”, but otherwise it’s functional…used it this morning!
I too have a Flair that I love. I have had it in
my kitchen since 1967, brand new then. It’s an
RCI-645VN (biult-in exhaust system). I still have the manuals. I want to refurbish it. I have
my mother’s part from hers, but hers is older than mine. Mine is built-in. hers has a stand.ph
Holly (post #64), that sounds like our wall oven and I’m looking for the model/serial numbers too. I’m wondering if they go along with the stove, which is a countertop but still Frigidaire Custom Imperial. Our stove model # is RBB201CH but can’t find that listed anywhere.
Post if you figure out where to find the model # for the stove. Thanks.
I have a Frigidaire 40″ electric range for sale and I’m trying to get the year. It says model RS-10K. I have not found it anywhere online.
we have a Custom DeLuxe 30″ Flair Range RCDB-630 – with pull out cooktop and B-30 base cabinet in phoenix, az. we would like to have it picked up within one week. we are renovating and want to make this available to someone if interested. please let us know.
We have a Frigidaire Flair / Custom Imperial, model #5430486 / serial #35FD834, dual oven, pull-out electric burners with matching cabinet. Clock, all lights, etc. work great. Any idea how I can find out what year this is and approximate value? Thank you!
I have a Frigidaire Custom Cookmaster from ‘63 and the thermostat went kapput. I called Jim at Electrolux but they have discontinued the part. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks
I am in need of an instruction manual for the flair oven. I have misplaced mine. It has all the information about cooking temperatures etc.
Well, I needed a new bottom element for the small oven, figure I’d get the top one fixed in the large oven (broiler doesn’t work) but I never could find a model # and neither could the repairman. Anyway, he called “somebody” and was told no parts for our wall oven any more, just will have to get a new one! And said they don’t make them this large anymore either, so new will be smaller. SIGH!
We have a 1960 RCIB-645 Custom Imperial. The front two burners are burned out — Speed Heat on the left and Heat Minder on the right. I called Jim at Electrolux and he sent me:
part #5306591863 for $63.61 — Speed Heat burner
part #5306590805 for $46.99 — 8″ burner
We installed them and since everything else was working ok (controls, no loose wires, and heat minder sensor) now they are both working as they should. We are pleased.
We have a 1961 Frigidaire Flair electric stove but the twoburners on the right side do not work. Any ideas on what may be wrong. We can only find one fuse and that is on the left.
check out this counter top double oven on sale for $1.99. The person has Frigidaire spelled incorectly. Hurts the chance to sell
I found my installation instructions for the Flaire and I have an operators manual and some instructions on parts replacement for some parts. My schematic does not show more than 1 fuse. I will research that more. The installation instruction discribe installing the 50 Amp Range Pigtail.
Good news! Don’t give up on your burners,the heat minder to be exact. A contractor friend took mine apart and put it back together after it had died many years ago! It works like new,and we don’t know why. something loose maybe.Luck..ph
i finally found my model number! it is a RCI-645K. I haven’t uncovered the year yet. I removed the large back burner and the drip pan under it, shined a flashlight directly towards the back and there was a slight bow in a piece of metal. when i lightly cleaned the center of the bowed metal, i realized it was the model number plate!
hope this helps someone find their model number!
I need the glass that covers the clock and oven controls.This ia double wall unit 24 inch oven. Model number RBE397U.
Imperial Fridgadaire probally 1974.1973 Model
Can anyone help?????
Thank You,
Mike LeMay
Does anyone in the San Francisco Bay Area know of a repair person who works on Flairs? Please?
The baking element (bottom element) in both ovens is not working? Could it be electrical?? Wiring?? Fuse??? I love my Flair– my husband does not and is looking for any reason to get rid of it. Any help would be appreciated. As far as I can tell — my unit is either at 1964 or a 1973 model. Varying information based upon the model number. Thanks a million.
I have a Custom Imperial range with two ovens and pullout cooktop. The clock, both ovens and two back burners work perfectly. The two front burners need to be replaced and I am getting shocked a little bit once in a while. I have ordered a new stove, but hate to give up my Custom Imperial. I may get it rewired for canning in the basement, or if someone would give it a home and transport it, I would consider that.
Hi Carolyn,I would be interested depending where
you live.Please reply,thanks Coolcoupe
I live in Aurora, West Virginia, just off Route 50 before the Maryland border. My new stove is to be delivered Dec. 18, so I would like to move the Frigidare before that time. It will be sad to see it go…
Hi Carolyn,Its just a little too far for me.I live in Ontario Canada but wished I did live closer to you!thanks Moe
i’ve seen lots of pictures of the controls on the flair stoves, however i’ve not seen any like mine.
see image at:
http://members.aol.com/whattoyisi/controls.jpg
most pics have the burner controls on the left, mine are on the right.
i called frigidaire and they couldn’t figure out what year my stove is.
any help would be appreciated!
thanks!
Carol
Call Frigidaire in Dayton Ohio, Give your model number and serial number
Carol, Mine has the burner controls on the right
also. the other controls are different. The key
is both our stoves are Custom Imperial, the best
ones they make. Mine was new in 1967.ph
I just purchased a home with a Custom Imperial double oven (model number 6560106…probably 1960-62). I really miss my old gas stove, so I am interested in selling the Flair. Both ovens appear to work great as do all 4 burners. I think the exterior is in very good shape. I live in Dayton Ohio.
I just bought a house with a Custom Imperial stove. I really miss my old gas stove so I’m interested in selling the Flair (model number 6560106 ? possibly 1960-1962 (house was built in 1962 and it appears to be orignial to the kitchen). Both ovens and all burners work well. The exterior is in very good shape too. I live in Dayton Ohio.
I would like to purchase a white Frigidaire Imperial stove, must exterior must be in excellent condition.
I’m in the process of renovating a flooded home in New Orleans. I’m more intersted in the ovens Working. I’ll be installing a gas cooktop. Please send some pic’s and price. Shipping may be a problem. May cost as much as the range??? JW

Hi Paul,Where are you located?If your close
enought I would be interested.
I’m the Richmond, VA area and I would like to get rid of a double oven flair. Mine is as pictured at the top of this web site. It is pretty good condition but not perfect. Both ovens work, but not both broilers. I think one of the burners is not working, either. It has a metal base cabinet. If you are interested, let me know.
Hi Tom,your just too far away,I could not afford
the freight,I live in Ontario Canada.
Hello, I have a Frigidaire RCIB-635-2 single oven with four stove top burners. I need a Switch for the left front burner.It is a special switch designed only for the left front which begins heating at 220 volts and then drops down to 110
Thanks, Kevin Telephone- 845-893-6501 or e-mail jkkergil@optonline.net
I loooove my flair but I have two questions – if anyone could help I’d be so appreciative. First- this website is great! I plan to be a new generation carrying on the Flair (I’m only 22). Anyway, my Flair has a chrome interior and I’m having a lot of problems cleaning it. I’m afraid to use oven cleaner. Someone above said goof off and vinegar. Any ideas? Also, I’m looking for a temperature probe for mine- you know the kind that plugged into the side. If anyone has one they’d be willing to part with I’d be interested.
Thanks so much! Amy
Amy, Does your oven have the reversible panels
on the back and either side of your oven? If so,
they can be turned to the other side, which would be nonstick and a lot easier to clean.ph
I have a 1960’s Frigidaire Flair with sigle oven and pull ot burners, and storage underneath. Does anybody have any idea if it has any value. Please E-MAIL any comments to m24gc@bignetnorth.net

we just purchased a home with a 1962 frigidaire flair model # 6560105 i was wondering what these are worth? the condition is fair the left front burner is not working right now, so far everything else seems to be.
hi
we have recently aquired the Custom Imperial RCIB-645. we found a place for it in our kitchen, but need a new oven electrical outlet. will any oven outlet work? sorry if this seems silly. my husband insists that different ovens need different oven electrical outlets; and since he does not know which electrical oven outlet we need for the Flair Oven, we cant put the outlet in and i cant use my oven – which may be the point…….
let me know if you can help. thanks!
All Range outlets are either 40 or 50 amp.
Tha Flair uses a 40 amp outlet and should have 40 amp fuses or circuit breakers.
Enjoy the unit !
we would like to know how to remove the ovens from our frigidaire model #RC1B-645-2 and can these ovens be used as built-ins in a new wooden cabinet?? thank you
Looking for manuel for Frigidare Custom Imperial by GM Serial#60c51863 Model RCIE75L Thanks.
Attention #90 Paulin. Could you e-mail to me ? I have the same stove as you have, made in 1967. I have some questions for you.info@hunterslodge.com. Thanks Halyna.
Sorry my e-mais is info@hunterslodge.com.
Does anyone know anything about the RCI-635J? It is a single oven, very nice condition. I have not seen this one mentioned yet and I would like to know more about it.
Thank you so much for publishing the manual for the Flair! Mine’s got a few issues but I love the thing, it’s mostly FINE and it’s so unique and efficient.
I need to replace a lamp that indicates when it hits the right temperature…
but that’s all. It works like a charm.
Thanks again,
Janie
Hey Everyone,
There’s an update to the forums.
http://obviousdiversion.com/flairforum/
I’ve cleaned out any the awful spam and updated the forum software. Hopefully this new software will do a better job of keeping out the spam.
Thanks.
A Frigidaire Owner’s Manual for All Models is now available. This is different than the tech-talk manual we had before. Visit the site to download the latest. Much thanks to Joe for his contribution.
#111. Halyna, sorry I could not get through on
your email, mine is: ore54pix@yahoo.com. Sorry
my computer was down for a time. i will try to
help if I can. Pauline

I’d like to sell my Frigidaire Custom Imperial range and am wondering what a good price range would be? What are these things worth? Thanks.
I have one of this ovens. I am moving and I need to sell it. Frigidaire Flair Electric Range with Duo Oven. Mint condition Model: Custom Imperial RCIB-645-2
This beauty is in amazing condition. It has been very well maintained. No scratches or dents. Every little knob and piece works perfectly and smoth. You almost don’t want to use it if you buy it because it looks too good. I also have the original manual which is in good condition as well. I am putting lots of pictures so you can get a feel for it. This is located in Corvallis Oregon. This is a very heavy item. Shiping would be at your own cost and risk. I can help load it with a dolly.
McCabe, I really don’t know what a resonable price is. I saw one on ebay for $500 few months ago. It will depend on the condition.
Daniel, How can I get in touch with you and look
at your stove? I live in Springfield, Oregon!
Please let me know, my email is listed in comment #118.
I just purchased a home with a “Frigidaire Deluxe” stove with double ovens. This is probably a dumb question, but can anyone tell me how to remove the stove top elements for cleaning the metal drip pans? Thanks.
I have a Frigidaire Electric Range, Model RCDB-640. This oven was in a west Texas home around 1964. I have the installation intsructions and wiring diagram (in brittle pieces). My mother-in-law loved the double ovens and pull out electric range top. Before internet we could not find the needed parts: small oven elements, two burners. If you are interested, I would love for someone to have it. It is located in the north east corner of Texas.

I have a Frigidaire Flair Model RCIB-635 stove. This stove is in pristene condition and excellent working condition.
Recently, the inner glass on the oven door exploded leaving an oven full of shattered glass.
Could someone tell me where I can get this repaired. We really want to keep this stove because of its age and condition.
Thanks for the help!

I have recently listed a Frigidaire Custom Imperial Flair Stove Oven on ebay. Item #
This stove has just been removed from it original home. It was installed new in 1965. I listed it as a whole stove and I have had lots of ebayers interest but the freight and was too high and to troublesome to ship so they did not buy it. So, I have decided to take the stove apart and ship it as parts. I will remove everything that I can and ship it to you. I will be able to send the vent’s original filter which is in great shape. I will remove the knobs and “gull-wing” doors and package them and ship to you. I will ship the racks and actual burner elements. I will send the clock knobs, the timer knob and the long glass face that goes across the stove. I will send the long handle that opens the stove. I will send ALL the screws and keep them with the item they go with. Someone asked if I could pop off the Frigidaire logo and send it. I feel certain that I can. As I take it apart, if there is anything else I can send, I will. I want you to be able to use (or sell) every part of this stove. ALL these parts are original and in good shape. I will ship all these parts to you for $250.00. If you want me to send anything else I will only charge you actual shipping costs. I will use the United States Post Office (unless you want different delivery) and I WILL INSURE THE PARTS for you. (if in Canada, the costs may be higher – we will just have to see when I get your address.) This is a great old stove – enjoy!
If anyone is interest in the whole stove:
It is in good condition however, the burners need maintenance. One oven works the other I was told needs the fuse replaced.
• Electric
• Made in the early 1960s
• 4 burner, pull out cooktop
• Has attached hood
• Double oven unit with “gull-wingâ€doors
• Oven light
• Overhead light
• 40″ wide, 68.5 “tall, 25″ deep
Shipping is up to the winner who wins the Whole Stove (costs and pick up arrangements). We live in North Carolina and I have it stored in a clean garage (nice and safe). I have described the stove as best I can. If you have any questions, please email because all sales are final and I want you to be happy! and of course, I cannot be responsible for damage of any kind from shipping.
Hope someone is interested and can use this great old stove!

I am in Texas, and am looking for a Flair Custom Imperial that is compatible with the meat probe as well as the rotisserie.
I am looking for a 6560106 Frigidiare Custom Imperial Stove. I live in the Cincinnati area.
Debra Rivenbark,
I am interested in some parts. What is the model number?
I have looked and cannot find a model number. Where do I look exactly? Thanks. Deborah
The model number is located on the left side of the upper bottom cabinet.
A better description of where the model and serial number is located is, pull the burner drawer out and look on the bottom cover for the drawer. Also pn the back of the oven unit there should be a wiring schematic that is varnished on, the model number will be on that.
Really need help!
I have a 40″ Custom Imperial that I need to replace – what options do I have to buy something very similiar that would fit in the same opening and similiar design.
I have a flair that has never been used listed on EBAY. My Mother loved hers sooo much that she bought a second and put it in the garage… it’s been sitting there never used for over 30 years… need to find an appreciative home!!!
Krista Baroudi,
We would be interested in your Flair. I could not find it on EBAY.
Krista,#142, We need more info on your Flair. Where are you located, and what year and make is your Flair? ph
I can NOT believe I stumbled onto this website. I, too, am an owner of a 1962 Flaire Oven identical to the one in the above pictures. I have NEVER ever seen this oven anywhere else besides my kitchen and thought for sure I must be the sole onwer of one!!!! My oven is a huge conversation piece with guests. Believe me, I was the first one to want to tear it out but my freinds and family have convinced me that Id be crazy to get rid of it. So, here I am with a brand new kitchen and my circa 1962 stove smack in the middle.
From what we were told by a vice president of AB Electrolux, the reason that they had to discontinue manufacturing the unit was that one thing caused the unit from being UL approved.
The AC outlet was not a GFCI outlet. I can picture a newer updated model that would include the newer style surface element. I believe ths would be an excellent design and that people would purchase. My mother purchased our RCI-645 unit in 1973,I became the owner 8b years later and lost Roteesaire rack in a house fire. The first year that I was married , we had a swedish family for Thanksgiving and that;s when we learned that he worked for AB Electrolux. He had not see one of the units in years. A comment that he made was that if there was enough interest, an updated model could be possible.
Bill,
My mom just went thru this kind of remodeling and she did a beautiful job remodeling THE HOLE!! She had a carpenter come in and put the new 30″ stove in and a mirowave above it. The he filled in the empty space with custom made stainless steel. The steel came out to meet the stove and mirowave. She did not have to worry about matching the cabinets or anything. It turned out very, very nice. And was very inexpensive. I’d be glad to send pictures. Deb

Wonder if it is worth anything or should I just put it in the recycle? clock timer burners are working. Thought we had blown a fuse yesterday but it might be more than that.. last and only service call was for the fuse receptical and he was amazed at the condition.. says at this age you do usually have the clock and timers and original burners still working.in southern ontario.
I am in the Norfolk area and need help with 2 Frigidaire Custom Deluxe stoves. They were in a duplex I bought in 1996. I live in 1/2 of the duplex. Little, by little, the burners are failing and now one of the ovens. Can anyone help? Thanks, hanna48669@yahoo.com.
Thanks, Connie

We have a Flair Stove that since the last time we used the front 6″ burner(Speed Heat)the amber light stays on. Burner is not warm or anything, but the light stays on. Does anyone know what could cause this? I think it might be the switch, however, I cant seem to find one. Any suggestions? Thanks
I have a Custom Imperial Flair oven. Many have complemented the unit. The inside and glass front are in excellent condition. We are remodeling the kitchen with a stove outside the cabinets. Wonder if anyone may be interested in such a unit. We are in Pennsylvania.
The controls should be available, alot can be found on the internet, DAYCO Aplliance stocks or can get the parts. The parts may have the Electrolux name on the package.What is your model #
would anyone be willing to provide a high res color image of the cover of the manual. I’d love to blow it up and hang it in my kitchen like a poster – near my own flair!
Also, I am looking for a resource for replacement “drip bowls” that go under the burners. Ours are quite rusted and I’d like to replace them if I could. Any thoughts? thanks!!!
I remodeled an older home (1950’s) and replaced the Frigidaire Custom Imperial stove like the in the pictures above. Anyone interested in this stove please email me at mmcmullin@yaho.com.
Everything works on this stove; was still being used when I bought the home.

We have just moved into a house in Minnesota, remodeled our kitchen and removed a single oven Flair. It’s in immaculate condition and burners/oven work well. We have the manual as well. If anyone is interested in purchasing, please let us know.
We have a 1960’s Frigidaire Flair for sale. It is a Custom Imperial model RCIB-635 (single oven with 4-pull out burners). We currently use this as our kitchen oven because it came with the house. There is nothing wrong with it that we can see, in fact, we use it every day to cook our dinner. It’s really unique. The oven and burners work. The internal oven & outer lights work. I have never tried the meat tender or any other features, but it seems to be in pretty good shape. We still have the original meat tender plug in cable. We don’t use the clock but it might work, not sure. We still have the original manual as well. Also a small misc. Frigidaire part in original box, but we’re not sure what it is… (part #1-6563752). If any interest, please email me. We’re looking for a minimum offer of at least $500. Pick-up only. We are in Philadelphia area.
Still looking for a oven rack or 2 for a single oven Flair…….
Doug, I have a model #6560106 and live near Cleveland, OH. Let me know if you would like to see it or are interested.
Bob,, Could you send me some pictures and information?
Doug, we just moved this out into a barn. I will try to get you some pictures. How do I go about getting your email? You can reach me at 216 266 3746 during the day.
The flourescent light that runs across the top of the instrument panel and is controlled by the lamp switch does not work. I replaced the bulb but still nothing. Any ideas of what to do? My Model No. is 6560106.
It would be helpful to find the correct model number for any questions about your Flair. GM Frigidaire model numbers were fairly easy to decipher, and go something like “RCI635J” which is my range. That translates as follows:
R – designated “Range” in the product line
CI – for Custom Imperial features….. could also be CD for Custom Deluxe and D for Deluxe, but one ot the other. This would correspond to the printing on the control panel
635 – this is a Flair (6) 30″ wide (35), 40″ models are 645. Again, can be one or the other
B, B-2, F, H, J, K, L, N designate the model year. B was for 1960-61, the first year of the Flair. This morphed into B-2, for 1962, with only minor changes. F was a 1963 model, but I think only for a Deluxe 30″ model. H was for the 1964 model year, J for 1965, K for 1966, L for 1967 and N for 1968, the last year for the Flair. And anything with a V indicated a vent hood. Take a closer look on the model plate if you can, unfortunately, the printed model number wore off on many ranges.
Your light may have a flourescent starter inside the top control area – if you open it be sure the power has been turned off at the circuit breaker!!!
I want to change my light, but forgot where to
open it. I know to lift the vent part to clean the filter, but I can’t remember the rest. Any
help? Thanks ph
I would love to have a Flair but my husband would not agree to a used appliance for our new home. Is there anything on the market now that is equivalent? I have just started researching appliances though we won’t need them for at least 8 months. Thanks for any help.
Pauline,
I fairly sure it has a starter. They are only $2.00 and available at any hardware store.
Doug
Pauline I will check the service manaual tonight for your range for specific instructions
I assume its a “N” model
I posted my 1964 Frigidaire Flair Custom Imperial Double Oven range on Portland’s Craigslist, so if anyone here is interested and can arrange for packing and shipping, give me a call and let me know. The pictures don’t really do it justice, it looks pretty good, except for the blower panel I painted and it cleans up beautifully.
- Brian
Pauline, I checked….
take the piece of trim off on the top of the comtrol panel – just above the Frigidaire nameplate and the bulb in directly inside – its a brushed metal piece thats a couple of inches wide by the width of the unit
hope this helps
Hi,
I am new to the site. We recently bought a house and have a frigidaire custom imperial electric double oven. It is the exact model here in the link http://cgi.ebay.com/FRIGIDAIRE-IMPERIAL-40-ELECTRIC-RANGE-STOVE-Retro-Tech_W0QQitemZ220143293473QQihZ012QQcategoryZ71251QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
only not that stove. There is no serial number or model number on my stove. Would any of you have any suggestions as to where I could find one. Or if you have the model number also, that would be great. It is not on the stove at all. I have looked throughout the whole thing. Someone must have removed the tag or whatever. Any help would be greatly appreciated as the stove needs some repairs and the company is having a hard time repairing it. I would hate to get a new stove b/c of this mess b/c I love this beauty!
Nicole
Nicole, thats a late 70’s model – I will check tonight to see where the model number should be located
SteveD
thank you so much! Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated!
Nicole the model and serial number plate should be located under the left front burner… sometimes it gets faded and discolored from spills…. your number should be something like RCD71W, RCIE75W, something like that
The model Number should be located on the back of the unit also, therew as a schematic wiring diagram of the units varnished on the back.
When repling then Fluorscent lamp, be careful not to take out unnecessary screws. It sholud be easy enough to change. the current lamp for the 40″ units is a F30T8. Cw after it for cool white and WW for warm white.
Thank you so much. I found it under the burner covered in grease!!! I am so thankful for all of your help! Much better than the repair company that came in.
Some service persons only want to service the newer units.
Does anyone know the weight of a Flair Custom Deluxe unit? Mine has the single oven and 4 burners, no stand. It is about 3 feet in width, depth and height. There are 2 or 3 racks, too. I would like to ship it, but need to know the approximate weight. Any help would be appreciated.
30: Flairs weigh in at 230 lbs, give or take a few…. if you have the base cabinet, add another 56 lbs
thats 30″ (30 inch) models, the 40″ are about 100 lbs more
Thank you for your immediate response. My oven is the 30, so I’ll go with your 230 lbs as I have no base, only the unit.
I am new to your site and read everything with interest. I am totally amazed at the number of these ranges still being used. We just moved into a new home with a small kitchen and built-in everything. I simply cannot leave my Custom Imperial Model RCI-645K in my old home because it will be modified to be used as a rental. I love this ole stove and don’t want to part with it, but have no choice. I’m assuming, because of comment 166 from SteveD, the age of this double oven w/base unit would be 1966? and again from SteveD in 182/3 it would weigh 386 pounds? It comes with the original “Use and Care Instructions” (a three page fold-out), an eight page “Frigidaire Automatic Oven Guide,” “Installation Instructions for Frigidaire Flair Ranges Models RCD-630K, RCI-635K and RCI-645K.” and an eight page “Frigidaire Electric Cooking Guide.” As a side note, I live in Cheyenne, WY.
I have acquired a 40 inch Flair and am in the process of cleaning it up, it was really dirty. The oven door seals(gaskets?) are really worn and need replaced. Has anyone ever had to replace these and do you know if it’s an item that “Jim” has handled? I had my first Flair back in 1987. It was a single unit that was on a custom wooden base, so we sold it with the house when we moved 4 years later. I loved that stove and have been looking for one ever since. So glad I found this one! I am hoping we can get it up to speed soon!

My mother has a Frigidaire Custom Imperial Flair, model number RCIB-635-2. The oven is heating up to over 500, even when it is set on low. Is there anywhere to get a new thermostat for it. The stove belonged to her mother and she doesn’t want to part with it. Any help would be appreciaated.
I am looking for a 12 volt transformer the operates the fluorescent light. Also I would like to find the rotisserie attachments.
Thanks
Jill Fanning,
I know this is a strange request, but would it be possible to scan the “Use and Care Instructions” fold out. I would love to have a copy of that for this model, or if any one else could provide me with that, I would greatly appreciate it.
Hi Steved. would you able to let me know I have imperial flair model#6560106 and serial#64FD026 can you tell me which year and is it consider flair deluxe. thanks Dolma I am also trying to sell this stove would you able to tell how much I should ask for roughly.
I am looking for a thermostat for my Custom Imperial. It was delivered to my parents the day JFK was shot. For the most part it has been in use ever since. When I turn on the oven I get no heat, the indicator light comes on and once the broiler worked but now nothing. My serial # is 15FD, Model 6560105. The part that is behind the over temp knob says Model PN-46 7526435 then P15042 4B or (48). Would really like to get this stove back up and running. After all the years of an eye level oven. I have no wish to go a ground level oven. Thanks for any help anyone can give.
DOLMA, see post # 166 about the model of your range.. as for its value, it depends on who is willing to pay you something AND cart it away. this could be $25 or $250. Since there is difficulty in obtaining a lot of replacement parts, or finding a service guy, its all relative. For sure, dont hope to finance your retirement from this stove
Kim, when I Googled “Frigidaire Flair” I did get a website that offered rebuilding Flair thermostats
Just be careful if you are removing it to send back. And there is a good chance that you just have a burnt off wire inside BE SURE TO DISCONNECT THE POWER IF YOU ARE LOOKING INSIDE THE TOP CONTROL AREA
I have a 1950’s Flair Frigidare stove that is pictured in this website for sale. How much is the stoveworth and/or how can I find out what the value of this stove is?
Steve, I was looking for the burnt off wire but no such luck. I took a pic of the thermostat and sent it to JES Enterprises, in CA someplace. Anyway they responded that they could rebuild the thermostat and it was a Factory Certified Rebuild. Anybody heard anything like this. I am trying to be careful with the whole “reputable company” thing since they are request my credit card. They seems to be strongly involved in the antiquestove.com website. Any thoughts.
Kim
I can not find the model or serial # for my Custom Imperial Flair. It has 1 oven. The transformer is dated 1963. The transformer is for the fluorescent light. It is burned out and I need to replace it. Any suggestions on where I might find one? Please help.
My mother in Law has a 1961 Flair Mod. RCIB-645-2 she is the original owner does anyone have any idea how much it is worth? It needs a little work and she hasn’t had any luck finding someone to work on it.
On the Google Flair site I have posted control panel pics with the corresponding model numbers, as well as a few wiring diagrams

Still searching for an oven rack for a 30″ Flair
fuck ovens , i ahte em
Hi,
I just got a Frigidaire Imperial RV60 22C71363,It has a “wonder oven” to the left side,it looks like it’s missing some parts is there a manuel for this model ? Do you know how old it is. Also looking for several other parts. Thanks Alot !!!
kim, how did you get to the part behind the oven temp knob? my oven will not turn off (even when knob is turned to “off”) I had an engineering company come look at it and they said they could not get to the interior switch without removing the entire unit. tammi622@aol.com
Tammi, the top of the range is removed by taking the 2 screws off the front piece of silver trim and pulling the top panel forward BE SURE TO SHUT THE POWER OFF!!!!!! If the top in enclosed the control panel can be removed from the front, although its a slow process – lots of disassembly. what is your model number?
SteveD
Hey SteveD,
Before reading your response I managed to succeed where the engineer failed. I got it apart but I don’t know where I thought I was going to go from there! I guess I was hoping to find a loose wire or something. Anyway, my husband has won and we are getting a new stove. So I will soon have a RCI-645J for sale.
As of today, ALL the parts to the stove I listed earlier have been sold so I cannot help anyone else out. Glad I could help all those who contacted me thru this site. debrbark@earthlink.net
The RCIB-635-2 flair stove my mother has, I posted earlier that we thought the thermostat was out, it is not, the oven sensor probe inside the store was broken off the last time it was cleaned. Is there any way to fix this or is there a compatible part that can be ordered to fix
Thanks in advance,
Hope
we own a frigidare- flair stove Model#RCDB-630-2.we would like to know why the oven does not heat up.the stove works fine,could the thermostat be the problem?

I saw this posting but no e-mail was listed and no way to reply that I could see. I live in Mankato and would be very interested as that is the stove I have and it is broken. I really need to replace it but have been unable to find one. please e-mail me at tigerflynewt@yahoo.com
I have a Frigidaire Flair Custom Imperial RCI-645J for sale. It is not the same as the one pictured above, I think mine is a newer model. It has double ovens and an exhaust fan. It does not have the cabinets below. I can email pics if anyone is interested. It is missing some control knobs and the clock doesnt work. All of the burners and the left oven are working fine, but the right oven stays warm after turned off. I don’t know if someone may want this for parts or to fix and use. Make me an offer.

Hi there,
I need YOUR help to find the model# of my Flair. It is a built-in double wall oven (No pull out cooktop) with the gull wing doors on it. It is Frigidaire Custom Imperial Flair. Our house was built around 1964-1966. I am enclosing my email, please email me and ask for a picture if you think you can help me. I appreciate any help I can get, and would love to find a manual or copy of one. I look forward to hearing from you.
chenault13@cimtel.net
Thanks again, Holly
I have a Frigidaire Flair Custom Imperial stove/oven and original manual. The faceplate is the same as Model # RCIB-635C-2 but there are no lower cabinets. What would this be worth in working condition?
Thanks,

I have a Custom Imperial 23″ double oven in working condition and an electric 4 burner cook top (Deluxe) that has only 2 working burners. What would these be worth. I am in central California.
Thank you.

If you would be so kind as to trust me, and send me the items to scan and return to you, i would!! I am so grateful to find someone with the exact model i have! You are an angel!
Thank you for considering!

I have a 30″ flair wall oven from 1961 (no burners or cabinets below, just a built in oven). It’s original to the house and still works great. I’m in Miami, FL. Please email me if you’re interested. We’ve just remodeled and have to part with this.
Chris (post #68) and everyone else,
I am so excited, I just went to the google Flair site and once again tried to learn where to find the Model # for my Flair, ” I Found it!!!” I am so happy…….. I have been searching for 5 years, reading the posts here and researching everywhere trying to figure it out. My model # is RBGH-345 and the serial # is 52C19413
For the Frigidaire Custom Imperial Dual Oven wall unit (NO Pullout stove)…. The Model # is at the bottom of the (front) of the oven behind the bottom peice of trim. “I didn’t even think that trim was removable” I does pop right off.
Does anyone have a (service)Manual for this? Please let me know.
I love my Flair, All my guests think it is the coolest oven they have ever seen.
I also have the Custom Flair Stove top (only) Model # RBB-201, if anyone has the manual on it please let me know.
I also have another stove/oven in the guest house as well as a Flair Dishwasher.. My husband threw out the Refrigeraters before I met him… too bad.
If anyone can help out with Manuals I would be grateful…
I hope this helps someone find their Model #’s
Thanks for all the posts, they really help alot of people,
Holly

And my speed burner doesn’t work, does this older stove also have the fuses? Thanks so much to anyone with info or help. Elizabeth email at rubyjadesmom@yahoo.com

What do you need for your stove?

I have an original 50’s Frigidaire Custom Imperial oven, for sale. The oven and burners are all in working condition, timer, light, and fan still working. This antique is rare in this great working condition. Would like to sell to the best offer, pick up only, St Petersburg FL location.
I HAVE A FRIGIDAIRE FLAIR DOUBLE OVEN AND MATCHING VENTED HOOD THAT SITS ON TOP OF THE UNIT. 3 OUT OF 4 BURNERS STILL WORK GREAT AND ONE OF THE TWO OVENS JUST STOPPED WORKING. LOOKING FOR INTERESTED PARTY IN THE CHICAGO AREA. NEGOTIABLE. IF INTERESTED,PLS CONTACT ME AT nadler1@comcast.net.
JUST TOOK SOME ADVICE FROM THIS WEBSITE. TURNED OVEN KNOB TO ‘MANUAL’, AND VOILA ONE OF THE OVENS THAT I THOUGHT WASN’T WORKING HEATED RIGHT UP, SO NOW ONLY ONE SMALL BURNER IS STILL INOPERABLE. IF INTERESTED, CONTACT nadler1@comcast.net. CHICAGO AREA
To the person who was wondering whether to keep it or not…. A new stove with comparable build quality is likely to run $6,000-$10,000. The consumer grade ones of today (sub $1000) give you updated design, for a very low price…. and things have to give, ie much shorter life spans etc. Now, if you plan to move in 5 years, such a unit is fine. If you plan to stay around, an investment way $1000 would make your stove just about like new, and good for another 30-50 years. Yet, with anything old, repairs can be a hassle as well as parts availability.
My mom has a Flair that she says they bought in 1964. I’m not there to look at the model # but would recognize a photo matching the configuration of controls (4 burner controls on the right side of the top panel).
She just paid a repairman $60 to hear that parts are not available.
She needs the 2 front burners ~ small left “speed heat” surface element and large right “Heat Minder” surfact element.
She is in the Binghamton, NY area.
Any recommendations for parts availability? Thanks!
Hi Denise,
The repairman is partially right.
The switches (if that what she needs)
are difficult to come by. However, converting the ‘Speed Heat’ and the ‘Heat Minder’ burners to standard
infinate heat is doable.
If you notice at the very top of the page, we have moved this particular board to Google Groups.
There you can find in the posts many helpful ways to fix your Flair!
In the file section of the Google Group is a .pdf file that shows all the control panels and what year and model number they are.
Repairclinic.com actually has burners for the Flair and the infinate heat switches.
Another posibility is to join the google group as many folks on there have extra parts and could possibly help your get the Flair repaired like new!
Hoping to be of help!

My Mom & Dad have a Frigidaire Custom Imperial Flair Range. However, they had a freak power surge problem and burnt out everything in the kitchen including the range. My Mom is so upset, and the insurance company isn’t wanting to replace the range with all the extra’s that she had on the range even through they had replacement coverage. Replacing it with 2 ovens and the stove top and a new cabinet etc is very costly. Would any one out there have a range like this on for sale? We preferre stainless steel. You may contact me at jebw24@yahoo.com or would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks

I have a Custom Flair that we are replacing. The stove has been in this house since it was purchased in the 60’s. We bought the house in ‘92 and have been using it since. It is in good shape cosmetically but only the large oven works and one of the burners does not work. If someone wants this, please email me at dneitzel@lummifilm.com. Otherwise I will take it to the appliance recycler. It is located near Bellingham, Washington.
I have Perfectly working Fridgidaire Stove. I believe 1963. The large weight sensing burner does not work, most likely it just needs to be replaced. Aside from this, the stove is in mint condition. It was loved for 50 years by the little old Italian lady who owned the home before me. I prefer gas, but for an electric stove, this one rocks. It’s ovens are comparable to the best gas ovens.
HURRAH..Hurrah!!! I have my big oven back thanks to the tip about the MANUAL knob…now I need to know if the wires on my Model RCIH-645 CAN be replaced on the left side.( if I can find someone to do it).. the other two burners work on the right side but they don’t cool down until I put them on warm. This is my 3rd Flair in 50 yrs and It has to last at least for 10 more years!!!! I am so glad to see so many people that are as passionate about their oven/stove as I am..
I live in St.Louis . I would like to know any one else has one..

I have a Frigidaire Flair Electric Range for sale. Custom Imperial Model – RCI-645J. Comes with original Owner’s Manual, Electric Cooking Guide, and Automatic Oven Guide. Email me at john@docrusk.com for questions or pictures. We are located in Cincinnati, OH
Can anyone out there help me find the model # on my custom imperial flair frigidaire stove??? I went online and I can’t find the model #. I only have one top oven, and my clock is located to the far left, not in he middle like the others pictured in the users manual online.
Does anyone know what size florescent light bulb the imperial flair stove takes to light up the top panel? My Dad measured the area and it was about 27 inches wide (where the bulb would fit into the panel area)….I’d love to replace the bulb and light up that area, but I’m unable to until I have the size and watts of the bulb needed.
Thank you,
Chris
The model # will be under the Back left hand burner. It’s near the back inscribed on a small silver plate along with the watts, and serial#
Does anyone have a clock for sale (that works) for a frigidaire flair custom imperial. The one with the double ovens. Or the outlet plug for the front above the back right burner.
Thanks Yvette.
And does anyone of a site where people might be selling parts for these stoves. I’ve tried E-bay with no luck
I have a RCIB 645 and the large oven no longer works. How do I know if it’s the thermostat and/or the switch? I’m obviously not an electrician, but I think I can figure out the repair if I had some tips of what to look for. I also would them need to purchase these parts from some of you out there so let me know what these parts cost and how I can get them. I live in Minneapolis, MN
Thanks
Matt
Have a RCI 645J and am looking for a Lamp switch and plastic dial for top left burner that goes behind the glass panel. Also having problems with large bottom baking element (will not get hot) check all wires and element and put on manuel, but still will not get hot. Any suggestions for this! Email me at cookienhairbrain@aol.com Thanks
chris #323 the bulbs and sizes are as follows
the lamp for the 30 inch model is 25 watt and 28 inches long the 40 inch model has a 30 watt bulb and it is 36 inches long and on this one the use of a small screwdriver to gently pry the bulb out at one end will be needed as the bulb fits very tight go to your local hardware store that sells fluoresecent bulbs and they can help you find the right one just be sure that the lamp fixture is turned off or the stove is unplugged
#306 Stephanie mentioned she had a single oven flair for sale but she did not put her email address in her comment so I can not reach her. I am very interested in buying a 30″ single oven Flair.

hi cj,
i have a K small oven bake element.
your lamp/oven switch, have you checked the starter in the top of the range? Is the ballast in the back of the oven good?

Does anyone know if the Heat minder has a sensor that calibrates the temperature? My heat minder seems to only stay on high and bowl immediately and it never lowers in temperature….
Thank you,
Chris
I have a 40″ Flair that I have gone completely through. It is for sale but I fear I may have gotten carried away in restoring it. I have to move cross country and need to get it gone. If there is anyone who really wants a Flair that is in very good shape please let me know. I just don’t want to let it go away without it going to someone who really needs or wants it. I can even deliver it personaly if the destination is along the southern route from California to Florida. Are there any interested buyers out there? I am waiting on drip pans and thermostat probe clips and then I’ll post the pictures. It’s not perfect but very nice

chris #340
your heat minder “button” is damaged and is not available any longer I have done an extensive amount of research and have been unable to find anyone with a replacement and unless you replace that the burner will only work on full heat or you can replace the temp controller assy with part #5309957099 which will convert the burner to a regular infinite heat I can sell you that switch assy for 95.99 plus shipping and handling it would take about 1 week for me to receive from my warehouse let me know !

Hi Chris and Paul,
If you scroll to the top of this page and download the Tech Talk, it has 3 pages that define out the heat minder information.
(pages 17, 18, & 19 of the pdf file)
Also, Affordable Appliance online sometimes
has parts for these Flairs available.

We have a RCIB-645 Flair and my husband, while cleaning the glass under the control knobs, dropped it! Does anyone have that glass piece for sale? My email is RLMoeller@sbcglobal.net and I’m located in Northern CA.
Re: # 344
Hi Rita,
Make sure when you find this piece that
you go pick it up!
There as not been one control panel glass
to make it through the postal services in
one piece.
Carol
Hi Carol!
My glass made it! The package contained the control panel glass and the glass light cover. I shipped it from Rhode Island to Florida and it made it! We built a wood frame for the package and stuffed it like crazy! Good luck Rita!
Re: Tammi,
Tammi that is FANTASTIC!
You are the very first person
that i’ve heard from where the long
glass has made it through shipping!
Congratulations!
Carol
Tammi–That is exactly what my husband said. It has to be shipped in a crate–a wooden crate that is so stable the glass can’t bend! Thanks for acknowledging it can be done!
Steve (#341 comment) What model is your Flair? I live right next to I10 in MS and might be interested. My mother’s Flair is in pretty bad shape and needs to be repaired or replaced. Thanks for any pics also.
Hi Jeff! I’m going to the shop later and will post some pics and the info late tonight. It’s looks like I may not be making the trip to Florida until after the first of the year. We can come up with some alternate shipping arrangements if you prefer or I can drop it off when I do finaly make the trek. Have a great Sunday!
Steve
Steve – Assuming it will fit at my Dad’s house the timeframe isn’t that critical. I don’t think it would be feasible to ship as it would be extremely expensive. If you want to send photos to me my email is: smithj(at-sign)cableone(dot)net.
Steve – Just so I know what model is this and how much do you want for it? I’ve found another Flair but the logistics are going to be a nightmare and I’ve got to figure them out quickly if I go for it.
Hi, I have been selling and/or parting out Flairs for over 30 years now and never had a part broken in delivery.. Luck, NO (well maybe), just good packing, as tammi probably knows, if you pack it well, you can ship just about anything! Under normal circumstances it would be too costly to ship something like the glass panel, but if you’ve got a nice 40 + year old Flair Range, it is absolutely worth paying for good packing.
I have a question nobody has ever been able to answer: between what years were Flairs made?? I have, all these years, thought they were made only in the sixties, about ‘63 – ‘68, but recently I been seeing mid seventy models being advertised. Anybody know FOR SURE? Thanks, Mark OH, if anybody needs parts, let me know, I have some!!
Mark–we are still looking for the glass panel that fits under the knobs of the RCIB-645 Custom Imperial Flair. If you have one please email me at RLMoeller@sbcglobal.net with a price and let’s discuss shipping. You didn’t leave your email address so I couldn’t write to you.
Hey Jeff! I’m getting the pictures tonight and will forward them to you along with the info you requested.
Hi, I am in a wheelchair and found this site by accident looking for a pullout stove!!! I had n o idea that the flair existed. It would be perfect for me! Does anyone know if there are any companies that make anything similar to these new? Would appreciate the help!
Thanks so much in advance

Dallas, Texas. I am looking for a thermostat for both ovens of my RCIB-645 J Custom Imperial. I just stumbled onto this website…had no idea such existed. My ovens work but they are 50 degrees off.
Kansas City, MO. I’m so glad I found this site! I have a Custom Imperial RCIB-645 that came with my house when I bought it in 1975. I absolutely LOVE it and don’t want to part with it, but….I need lots of parts. The large oven needs elements, the speed burner doesn’t work and the heat-minder burner doesn’t “mind the heat” anymore…just goes full blast. The small oven works, but thermostat is off about 50°. The biggest problem is that the outer glass broke on the small oven door. I still have the handle assembly and the inner glass is intact. My REAL question…..should I try to repair and replace parts? Or should I start looking for another one in better condition and use mine for extra parts? Any thoughts? Anyone know if parts like I described are even available?
RE: Barb ( comment #361 )
Hi Barb, You can go to repairclinic.com, they have the replacement burner for the speed heat burner. Electrolux is re-producing them now. You should be able to find elements for the ovens as well. Sometimes in the heat minder the sensor gets gunked up, a good cleaning may be all it needs. This site has moved to a google group. The link is at the top of this page,
many folks have joined there and have parts for sale. I have a small oven door to a RCI-645-K,
not sure if it will work and it won’t match your large oven door design, but it would get you by if it fits i would think.
Find me at the google group:

I have a custom flair double wall oven, The temp control knob on the large oven will not turn off, It will take the temp down to warm but will not shut the oven off.
Hi Steven (#366),
Take a look at your control panel
where there are 3 small knobs in a row.
Find the one that says “meal minder”.
Make sure that it is turned to where
the letters MAN are showing.
Then your large oven should turn off.
Carol
We have a Flair and LOVE it. Thanks so much for this website!!!
Hi Everyone,
I just purchased a flair single oven for the home remodel that my husband and I are working on. I am in need of a few parts and was hoping someone here might be able to help. I need the bake element for the oven and the burner rest for the heat minder element. Could use a manual…don’t really know how it works and would like to really take it apart to clean it! I could also use the bottom right right cabinet door and the strip of metal that goes down that of the cabinet side. The clock works as do all the burners AND it came with the rotisserie…so we’d love to get it cleaned up and working! It needs to be repainted..I was thinking of taking the panels off, stripping them and finding some sort of enamel paint…anyone attempted this? Do I need special paint? Looks like it was painted with regular house paint in the past… Any advice? We are located in Gainesville, Fl.
Thanks!
Erin
Hi! We have an Imperial Flair in my parent’s old kitchen and are looking to sell. It works great and has always been well maintained. It has two ovens (one large, one small.) Pictures available upon request. kfalvo@hotmail.com
Great site! My Mom has had a single oven flair since 1963, and it works great. She just had the burners re-wired, and the friend who did the repair was so excited, he shut the burner drawer a bit too vigorously. . . . Now it is locked shut, and the release button will not engage. They removed the left side panel, but could still not get access to the cooking top release arm, and don’t know how to reach it to repair it. Any similar experiences, or suggestions? Thanks!
I am wanting to purchase a exceptionally clean Frigidaire Flair Custom Imperial with 2 ovens in good working condition near Kansas City, Missouri. If anyone has one to sell please respond. Thanks!

Hi Jason,
What do you need to know?
hoping to be of help!
Carol
I am looking to buy one for our kitchen. Ours is starting to go bad and we don’t want to have to redo our entire kitchen if we can replace the stove/oven unit.
Hi Jason,
I saw a 1963 listed up on eBay yesterday. However, it is possible to fix these flairs.
The main group that goes with this Obvious blog has been moved to google. There is a note at the top of this page about it.
http://groups.google.com/group/frigidaire-flair?hl=en
There are techs and electricians and those of us who have fixed our Flairs ourselves.
Please let us help you
You can post here if you like, but more folks
read over there.
What is going wrong with your Flair? That is, if you are interested in fixing yours.
hoping to be of help!

Hi, I have a Flair, single oven unit. The model number is RCI-635VN. I need the broiler heating element and the clock doesn’t work. Does anyone know where I can get these parts? I’m at mogirl143@aol.com.
I found the part for the broiler but I need to know if you replace it the same way you do the oven heating element. Does it just plug into the back??
We are looking for a Frigidaire Flair. My grandma has been without an oven for sometime. We would love to replaced it for her. Please let me know. Thanks. Contact me at annmarie2735@comcast.net.

I have rebuilt my Flair. I was putting the knods back on when i discovered the knobs to the oven controls would not fit. I am thinking that there was an insert or adaptor that mated the knob to the control, but I’ll be darned if I ever saw anything when I removed the knobs innitially. Does anyone know what I need or what is missing? Does anyone have the parts or are they available in parts stores? Thank You

Larry D. Koltz
koltz@execpc.com
Hi Larry,
You have a 1961-1962 Flair. It was the second Flair model. The left rear burner is an infinite heat burner, and those are still available at repair clinic dot com. The worth of the Flair is really what folks want to pay for it. (in my humble opinion). I hope you find a buyer for it or even replace that rear burner and enjoy the benefits of Frigidaire Flair!
Carol

I live in MPLS, MN if you need to figure out shipping and if all you have to do is reply to this and I can give you my email or if you’re comfortable listing a price feel free.
Thanks

My Mother has a Frigidaire Flair Custom Imperial
about 50 years old. Both ovens work good and 2 burners. Does anyone know of someone in Northern Indiana that works on these ovens? I believe some wiring work needs to be done. Please leave note here. Thank You
Martha
These ranges are simple, believe it or not, if the two rear burners are not coming on, be sure the sliding pull out stove portion with all burners is all the way out, it does have a safety and the burners will not come on unless it is pulled all the way out, if that is not the case , then it is either the switch or the elements, and both these parts can be gotten new from several sources and even used ones from even more sources, you are not alone and there is a tremendous support group all over this country and we are all here to help you, I am sure someone will read this and lend a hand, I will look in my supply and see what I have and be in touch, I am sure Carol is watching over our shoulder, so if she can put in her opinion, that would be great!
Tom Nichols
Hi Martha and Tom,
First i’d like to know which 2 burners don’t work. As Tom said, if it is the two back burners, there is a ‘disconnect switch’ that won’t allow them to come on unless the drawer is fully out. However, those disconnect switches can go out. If it’s the speed heat or the heat minder burner, those have different needs and can be fix. The other two standard burners are infinite heat burners and are still available. You could join the Google Group where the Obvious has moved this site to at:

Carol
Hello, We moved into a house with this unit 2 years ago, and shortly after moving in, the speed heat element went out. We have tried taking it out, but haven’t been successful, so will probably need to have a repair person come fix it for us. How would I go about finding one in the Seattle area? Also, the light flickers, and we tried replacing the flourescent bulb, but still the same, so must be the ballast. I assume the repair person would be able to address that as well? Thanks.
Hi, I just moved into a house with a Flair Custom Imperial. I would like to sell it. According to the past home-owner, she used the Flair all the time. Three burners work, the larger front right burner does not work. It is in good shape. Both ovens work. I live in southern California in the South Bay area, if anyone is interested. Thanks!
Jirika,
I am interested in your custom imperial range, I live in southern california, in south bay same as you, please email me back, and let me know how much you want for it, thanks, thos.nichols@att.net
Tom Nichols
I have a Frigidare Flair range that I bought new almost 50 years ago. I would like to replace the slide-out drawer burners with the new hi tec glass top units and leave the oven as is. I would consider cutting the existing old burners out, and replace them with the glass plate with its own intagrile switches. Is that possible?? regards…joe
I have a Frigidaire Custom Deluxe Flair (single oven) model # RCD-630N. I am having difficulty finding a replacement part for the oven switch. Any & all suggestions are appreciated. You can email me @ sdschweitzer@me.com
Thank you!
I have a CI RCIH-645 with a control panel that is the reverse of any of the pics I have seen; the clock is on the left, the 4 controls are on the right.
Anyone know what and when this difference came about?
Tom
The “R” means RANGE, THE “CI” means CUSTOM IMPERIAL, THE “H” means 1964 and the “645″ means DUAL OVEN.
1960 TO 1963 the clock was in the center, and then the clock went to the left from 1964 to 1970, for that reason, the clock was not a strong point, and it was easier to get to and fix when the wires from all the ovens and burners were not tangled up with it, as in previouse years, if the clock went out, it went out, it cost too much to take the top off the oven and untangle all the wires, but many times, it is just a matter of squirting some wd40 to get it running again, as demonstrated by Carol, in previous emails. I know more information than you really wanted to know, but you never know who you might help next.
Changing the subject, I found a shipper that can ship these ranges all across the country, the prices are fair and I have 4 1963 working ranges, I am going to put them on ebay, once I make sure they are all in good working order and that you can get them cheaply. They are incredible stoves and it is still amazing that no one these days has caught on to have visible ovens that are side by side,and at eye level, talk to all of you later.
L.A. TOM

My mom had one of these. It was great. It moved with us once and when she sold that condo the new owner INSISTED she leave it. I was she hadn’t. I would LOVE one…someday maybe..
Wish they’d make a retro one just like it..I’ll bet it would sell now with all the aluminum appliances being so popular.

Four years after posting about this oven, I’m officially closing down the comment thread. Lovers of the Flair oven would be better served by consolidating over at the Google Group created for fans of the Flair oven. Carol is the moderator over there and, I assure you, an excellent one.

The information on this page will remain, but the comments will be frozen and then eventually removed to help further push people toward the Google Group.
