For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
ANti-TIPDEVICE
Toreduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by aproperly installed anti-tip bracket. Seeinstallation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.
Tocheck if the bracket isinstalled and engaged properly,
All ranges can tip.
BURNSor other SERIOUS
INJURIEScan result.
INSTALLand CHECKthe ANTI-TIP bracket following
the instructions supplied with the bracket.
remove the storage drawer or kick panel and look underneath the range to see that the leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On models without a storage drawer or kick panel, carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the range within 4 inches. If# does not, the bracket must be reinstalled. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.
Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.
If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 m receive one at no
cost (in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation instructions of the bracket, x,isit GEAppliances.com

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
TheCalifornia Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Thefiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

Never wear loose-fitting or han_ng garments while using the appliance.
Be careful when reaching fk_ritems stored
over the range. Flammable material could
be ignited if brought in contact with hot
surface units or heating elements and may cause severe burns.
Use only dPi pot holders--moist or damp
pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns fiom steam. Do not let pot holders
touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

WARNING!
SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
For your safety, never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or
near the range.
.....Do not touch the surface units, the
heating elements or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may be hot enough m bum even though they are
dark in color. During and 'after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or any interior
area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the
cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven
vent opening, surfaces near the opening,
crex,ices around the oven door: REMEMBER:The inside surface of the oven
may be hot when the door is opened.
.....Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the x,icinity of this or any other
appliance.
Keep the hood and grease filters clean
to maintain good venting and to avoid
_ease fires.
Teach children not to play xdth the
controls or any other part of the range.
Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot
holders and other linens a s_e distance
fiom your range.
Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a s_e distance fiom
your range.
Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a s_e distance from
your range.
COOKMEATANDPOULTRYTHOROUGHLY...
Cookmeat andpoultry thoroughly--meat toat least an INTERNALtemperatureof 160°Fandpoultry toat least
an INTERNALtemperatureof 180°ECookingto thesetemperaturesusuallypmtects againstfoodbomeillness.
RADIANTSURFACEUNITS
Use proper pan size--select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will
also improve efficiency.
Never leave the surface units unattended
at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may
catch on fire.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop serx@e; others
may break because of the sudden change
in temperature.
iiiiiiiiiiii_iii
To minimize the possibility of burns, i_fifion of flammable mamfials and
spillage, the handle of a container should be turned reward the center of
the range without exmnding over nearby surface units.
.....Always turn the surface units off before
removing cookware.
.....When preparing flaming foods under
the hood, turn the fan on.

.....Use care when touching the cooktop. The
glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat
•after the controls have been turned oft
.....Keep an eye on foods being flied at high
or medium high heat settings.
.....Foods for flTing should be as dU as
possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture
on flesh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan.
.....Use little fat for effective shallow or deep
fat flTing. Filling the pan too full of fat can
cause spillovers when food is added.
.....If a combination of oils or fats will be
used in flTing, stir together before heating,
or as fats melt slowly.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
.....Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
.....Avoid scratching the glass cookmp.
The cooktop can be scratched with items
such as sharp instruments, rings or other
jeweh T, and rivets on clothing.
.....Do not operate the radiant surface units if
the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken cooktop
and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately
should your glass cookmp become broken.
.....Never use the glass cooktop surface as
a cutting board.
.....Do not place or store items that can melt
or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even
when it is not being used.
.....Be careful when placing spoons or other
stirring umnsils on glass cookmp surface
when it is in use. They may become hot
and could cause burns.
.....Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot surface unit, be careful to avoid smam
burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
NOTE: We recommend that you avoid
wiping any surface unit areas until they
have cooled and the indicator light has
gone ott. Sugar spills are the exception to this.Please see the Cleaning the glass
cooktop section.
.....When the cooktop is cool, use only
CERAMA BRYTE _>Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and the CERAMA BRYTE _>
Cleaning Pad m clean the cookmp.
.....To avoid possible damage to the cooking
surface, do not apply cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot.
.....After cleaning, use a d U cloth or paper
towel m remove 'all cleaning cream residue.
.....Read and follow all instructions and
warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
.....i,arge scratches or impacts m glass doors
or cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.
.....Do not leave any items on the cooktop.
The hot air flom the vent may i_fite flammable imms and will increase pressure in closed containers, which may cause
them to burst.
.....Do not leave plastic items on the

Baking results Mll be better if baking pans are cenmred in the oven as much
as possible. If baking with more than one pan, place the pans so each has at least
1" to 1½" of air space around it.
If baking fbur cake layeIs at file stone time, place two layers on sheff B mad/wo layers

Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20-40 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

Thetype ofmargarine will affect bakingperformance!
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 ff 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.
Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" m contain at least 80% fat by weight. I,ow-fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more wamt. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the
mxture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favotim recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
