Safety Instructions

Never cook directly on the glass.
Always use cookware.

OFF C ENTER

Always place the pan in the center of
the surface unit you are cooking on.

DRAGG ING

Do not slide cookware across the

control or cooktop surface because

it can scratch the glass. The glass is

scratch-resistant, not scratchproof.

WARNING:

units are automatically disabled during
the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all
surface unit controls are turned off at all
times during the self-clean cycle. Any
surface unit that is set to an on position,
while the self-clean cycle is operating, will
automatically come on after the self-clean
cycle is finished, and could result in an
on, unattended surface unit.Wait until
the self-clean cycle is finished to set and
use the surface units.
The radiant cooktop features heating
units beneath a smooth glass surface.
Cooktop temperatures increase with
the number of surface units that are on.
With 3 or 4 units turned on, surface
temperatures are high. Always use
caution when touching the cooktop.
An indicator light will come on when
the surface unit is turned on.
The appropriate HOT surface indicator
light will glow when its corresponding
radiant element is turned on and will
remain on until the surface has cooled
below 65.5°C (150°F).

NOTE:

Hot surface indicator light will:

On models with light-colored glass

NOTE:

cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to
change color when hot or cooling down. This is
temporary and will disappear as the glass cools
to room temperature.

It is safe to place hot cookware from the
oven or surface on the glass cooktop
when the surface is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned
off, the glass cooktop retains enough
heat to continue cooking. To avoid
overcooking, remove pans from the
surface units when the food is cooked.
Avoid placing anything on the surface
unit until it has cooled completely.

Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable
using the cleaning cream or full strength white
vinegar.

Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent
film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will
remove this discoloration.

Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop.
If they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause
damage.

Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Temperature Limiter

Every radiant surface unit has a
temperature limiter.

The temperature limiter protects the
glass cooktop from getting too hot.

The temperature limiter may cycle the

The pan boils dry.

The pan bottom is not flat.

The pan is off center.

There is no pan on the unit.

Selecting types of cookware. GEAppliances.ca

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Safety Instructions

Check pans for at bottoms by using
a straight edge.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residues
sometimes appear as scratches on the
cooktop, but can be removed if cleaned
immediately. Because of its low melting
point, thin-weight aluminum should not
be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended

Copper may leave residues which can
appear as scratches. The residues can be
removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned
immediately. However, do not let these pots
boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass
cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot
will leave a residue that will permanently
stain the cooktop if not removed
immediately.

Glass-Ceramic:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Home Canning Tips:

Be sure the canner is centered over
the surface unit.

Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.

Use recipes and procedures from
reputable sources. These are available
from manufacturers such as Ball®and

®

Kerr

and the Department of Agriculture

Extension Service.

To prevent burns from steam or heat,
use caution when canning.

Operating Instructions

Care and Cleaning

Porcelain Enamel-Covered Cast Iron:

recommended

As long as the cookware is covered
completely with porcelain enamel,
this cookware is recommended. Caution
is recommended for cast-iron cookware

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or
warped bottoms are not recommended.

that is not completely covered with
smooth porcelain enamel, as it may
scratch the glass-ceramic cooktop.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on coil cooktops.

Surface Cookware Tips

For best cooking results, pans should be
flat on the bottom. Match the size of the
saucepan to the size of the surface unit.
The pan should not extend over the edge
of the surface unit more than 2.5 cm
1 inch.

Not over 1 inch

Use medium- or heavy-weight cookware.
Aluminum cookware conducts heat faster
than other metals. Cast-iron and coated
cast-iron cookware are slow to absorb heat,

but generally cook evenly at low to medium
heat settings. Steel pans may cook unevenly
if not combined with other metals.

Wok Cooking

Troubleshooting Tips

Consumer Support

We recommend that you use only a flat­bottomed wok. They are available at your
local retail store.

Do not use woks that have support rings.
Use of these types of woks, with or without
the ring in place, can be dangerous.

Use only at-bottomed woks.

Placing the ring over the surface unit will
cause a buildup of heat that will damage
the porcelain cooktop. Do not try to use
such woks without the ring. You could
be seriously burned if the wok tips over.

Using the oven.

The oven has 5 rack positiones.
It also has a special low rack position (R)
for extra large items,such as a large
turkey.

Before you begin…

The racks have stops, so that when placed
correctly on the supports, they will stop
before coming completely out, and will
not tilt.

When placing and removing cookware,
pull the rack out until it stops.

To remove a rack, pull it toward you,
tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To replace, place the end of the rack
(stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the
front and push the rack in.

CAUTION:

a rack in the lowest position (A), you will need
to use caution when pulling the rack out. We
recommend that you pull the rack out several
inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the
rack out by holding the sides of it. The rack is low
and you could be burned if you place your hand
in the middle of the rack and pull all the way ou t.
Be very careful not to burn your hand on the do or
when using the rack in the lowest position (A).

Do not place foods directly on the oven floor.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Preheating is necesary for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.

To preheat, set the oven at the correct
temperature. The control will beep when
the oven is preheated an the display will
show your set temperature.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom
of the oven.

Never entirely cover a rack with
aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat
circulation and result in poor baking.

as possible. If baking with more than one
pan, place the pans so each has at least

2.5 cm to 3.8 cm (1” to 11 ⁄ 2”) of air space

around it.
If baking four cake layers at the same time,
place two layers on rack B and two layers on
rack D. Stagger pans on the rack so one is
not directly above the other.

A smaller sheet of foil may be used to
catch a spillover by placing it on a lower
rack several inches below the food.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture
says “Rare beef is popular, but you
should know that cooking it to only
60 °C (140 °F) means some food
poisoning organisms may survive.”
(Source. Safe Food Book. Your Kitchen
Guide. USDA Rev. June 1985.)

The oven has aspecial lower rack(R)

When Using the Warming Drawer

The warming drawer will keep hot,
cooked foods warm. Always start with hot
food. Do not use to heat cold food other
than crisping crackers, chips or dry
cereal.

Do not line the warming drawer or pan
with aluminum foil. Foil is an excellent heat
insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This
will upset the performance of the drawer
and could damage the interior finish.

Allow approximately 25 minutes for the
warming drawer to preheat.

NOTE:

NOTES:

CAUTION:

melt if in direct contact with the drawer, pan or a
hot utensil. Melted plastic may not be removable
and is not covered under your warranty.

Touching the pad does not turn the

warming drawer off.

The warming drawer has three settings:
1, 2 and 3. These settings maintain different
temperature levels in the warming drawer.

On some models, if using the oven at the same
time as the warming drawer, only the oven
settings will be displayed.

The warming drawer cannot be used during a
self-cleaning cycle.

Do not put liquid or water in the
warming drawer.

All foods placed in the warming
drawer should be covered with a lid or
aluminum foil. When warming pastries
or breads, the cover should be vented
to allow moisture to escape.

Food should be kept hot in its cooking
container or transferred to a heat-safe
serving dish.
