IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

IMPORTANT SAFETYNOTICE

The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

Gas appfiances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namel_l benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldeh_Ide and soot, caused primarily b_l the incomplete combustion of naturol gas or LPfuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated b_la bluish rather than a Fellow flame, will minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized b_tventing with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS

iiiiiiili_

Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before touching them or leaving them where

children can reach them.

iiiiiiili_

Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet

that are necessary for the range to operate

properly with correct combustion. Air openings

are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the

bottom of the range under the lower oven

drawer or kick panel.

iiiiiiili_

Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can lead to damage and improper operation of

the range.

Large scratches or impacts to glass doors

can lead to broken or shattered glass.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

SURFACEBURNERS

Use proper pan size-avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. Toavoid spfllovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.

Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners

have ignited.

iiiil}iNever leave the surface burners unattended

at high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may

catch on fire. Adjust the top burner flame size so it does

not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.

iiiil}i

Use only dry pot holders-moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns

from steam. Do not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use

a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot

holder.

iiiiiiili_

When using glass cookware, make sure it

isdesigned for top-of-range cooking.

iiiiiiili_

To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn

cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending over adjacent

burners.

iiiiiil

Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame setting.

iiiiiiili_

Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

iiiiiiili_

Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from the vent may ignite flammable

items and will increase pressure in closed

containers, which may cause them to burst.

iiiiiiili_

If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying, stir together before heating or

as fats melt slowly.

iiiiiiili_

Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to prevent overheating fat beyond

the smoking point.

iiiiiiili_

Use the least possible amount of fat for

effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the

pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when

food is added.

Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do

flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.

iiiiiiili_

Do not use a wok on the cooking surface if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed

over the burner grate to support the wok. This

ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage

the burner grate and burner head. Also,it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may

cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in

a health hazard.

Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh

foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially

a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

iiiil}i

Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop-

they may melt if left too close to the vent.

iiiiiiili_

Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.

To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be certain that the controls for all burners are

at the OFF position and all grates are cool

before attempting to remove them. If range is located near a window, do not hang

long curtains that could blow over the surface burners and create a fire hazard.

iiiil}i

If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range

and call a qualified service technician. Never

use an open flame to locate a leak.

iiiiiiili_

Always turn the surface burner controls off

before removing cookware.

When disabling Gas/Control Lockout, make sure the surface controls are set to the OFF

position. This will preclude gas flow when the range isturned on

LOWEROVEN DRAWER

ge.com

The purpose of the warm setting of the lower oven drawer is to hold hot cooked foods Qt

serving temperQture. Alwags start with hot food; cold food cannot be heQted or cooked

using the warm setting of the lower oven

drawer.

} Do not use the lower oven drawer to dry

newspapers. If overheated, theg can catch

on fire.

Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned

food or combustible materials in the drawer.

Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in

or near gour lower oven drawer.

Do not warm food in the lower oven drawer

for more than two hours.

Do not touch the heoting element or the

interior surfuce of the lower oven druwer. These surfaces mag be hot enough to burn.

REMEMBER:The inside surface of the lower

oven drawer mag be hot when the drawer

is opened.

_:,Use care when opening the lower oven

drawer. Open the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing

or replacing food. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face

and/or eges. Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower

oven drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset

the performance of the drawer and it could damage the interior finish.

Never place, use or self-cleon the lower oven drawer pan in the upper oven.

Top-of-Range Cookware

Aluminum: Hedium-weight cookware is recommended because it heats quickly

and evenly.Host foods brown evenly in an aluminum skillet. Usesaucepanswith tight-

fitting lids when cooking with minimum amounts of water.

Cast-iron: Ifheated slowly, most skillets will give satisfactory results.

Enamelware: Undersome conditions, the enamel of somecookware may melt.

Follow cookware manufacturer's recommendations for cooking methods.

Stove Top Grills

Do not usestove top grills on your sealed gas burners. If you usethe stove top grill

on the sealed gas burner, itwill cause

....... incomplete combustion and can result

in exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable current standards.

Gloss: There are two types of glass cookware-those for oven use only and those

for top-of-range cooking (saucepans,coffee

and teapots).Glassconducts heat very slowly.

HeutproofGluss Ceramic: Canbe usedfor either surface or oven cooking. It conducts

heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's directions to be

sureit can be usedon gas ranges.

Stainless Steel: Thismetal alone has poor

heating properties and is usually combined

with copper,aluminum or other metals for

improved heat distribution. Combination metal skilletsusuallywork satisfactorily if

they are usedwith medium heat as the

manufacturer recommends.

Use a riot-bottomed wok.

Thiscanbe hazardous to gout health.

Wok This Wag We recommend that you use a J4-inch or

smaller flat-bottomed wok. Makesurethe wok bottom sits flat on thegrate. Theyare

availableat your loca!retai!store.

Aluminum Foil

Donot use aluminum foi!on the bottom of the oven.

Do not usealuminum foil to catch spillovers when using the CircuWavefan. Thefoil

will be sucked toward the convection fan. Never entirelg cover a shelfwith aluminum

foil.Thiswill disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.

A smaller sheet of foil mag be used to catch a spillover bg placing it on a lower shelf several inches below the food.

Using the convection oven. ge.com

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door isopened. DO NOTleave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking.

In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food. This circulating

hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a

result, foods are evenly cooked and browned-often in less time than

with regular heat. NOTE:To maximize cooking

evenness, the fan is designed to rotate in both directions with a

pause in between. Thisis normal.

Tohelp you understand the difference between convection bake and roast and

traditional bakeand roast, here are some general guidelines.

Convection Bake

Preheat the oven. See the Using the Oven- Preheating and Pan Placement section.

Idea! for foods cooked on multiple shelves. Good for large quantities of baked foods.

Good results with cookies, biscuits, brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, ange! food cake and bread.

Theconvection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food.

Convection Roast

Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

Theconvection fan circulates the heated air evenly overand around the food. Meatand

poultry are browned on allsidesas ifthey were cooked on a rotisserie. Heated air will

be circulated over,under and around the food being roasted. Theheated air sealsin

juices quickly for a moist and tender product

while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.

Roastsor poultr_jshouldbe cooked on shelf

position (A).

When you are convection roasting,it is

important that you usea broiler pan and grid

for best convection roasting results.The pan

isusedto catch grease spillsand the grid is usedto prevent greasespatters.

Also,besure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Paper and Plastic Heat-resistant paper and plasticcontainers

that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens.

Plasticcookware that isheat-resistant to temperatures of 400°Fcan also be used,

when oven isbelow 400°F.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower

the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become. Federalstandards requireproducts labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads,on the

other hand, contain lessfat and morewater. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. Forbest resultswith your old favorite recipes,use margarine, butter or stickspreadscontaining at least 70%
