IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

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.

All ranges can tip and injury could result.

Slide-In To prevent accidental tipping of the range, attach it to the wall and floor by installing the Ranges: Anti-Tip device supplied.

To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, remove the storage drawer and inspect the rear leveling leg. Make sure it fits securely into the slot.

Drop-In To prevent accidental tipping of the range, secure the attached Anti-Tip bracket, under Ranges: the rear countertop.

To check if the device is installed and engaged properly, lower the oven door and gently apply medium force at the handle end until movement of the range is detected. Continue pressing until the anti-tip bracket is engaged and movement stops. A small amount of movement is acceptable at the back of the range top but it should be stable and not tip once the anti-tip bracket is engaged.

If you pull the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the device is properly engaged when you push the range back against the wall. If it is not, there is a possible risk of the range tipping over and causing injury if you or a child stand, sit or lean on an open door.

Please refer to the Anti-Tip device information in this manual. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and injury.

WARNING ANTI-TIP DEVICE

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

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 cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.

The fiberglass 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.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

■ Use this appliance only for its intended

purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.

■ Be sure your appliance is properly

installed and grounded by a qualified installer in accordance with the provided installation instructions.

■ Have the installer show you the location of

the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy reference.

■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any

part of your range unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

■ Before performing any service, disconnect

the range power supply at the household distribution panel by removing the fuse or switching off the circuit breaker.

■ Do not leave children alone—children

should not be left alone or unattended in an area where an appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

■ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or

hang on the door, storage drawer or cooktop. They could damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.

■ Do not store flammable materials in an

oven or near the cooktop.

■

CAUTION: Items of interest to

children should not be stored in cabinets above a range or on the back of a range— children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

■ Never wear loose-fitting or hanging

garments while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items 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 dry pot holders—moist or damp

pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from 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.

■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never

pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■ Flaming grease outside a pan can be put

out by covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■ Flame in the oven can be smothered

completely by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

■ 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 to burn 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, crevices 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 vicinity of this or any other appliance.

■ Keep the hood and grease filters clean

to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.

■ Teach children not to play with the

controls or any other part of the range.

■ Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot

holders and other linens a safe distance from your range.

■ Always keep wooden and plastic utensils

and canned food a safe distance from your range.

■ Always keep combustible wall coverings,

curtains or drapes a safe distance from your range.

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.

COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…

Do not operate the oven or cooktop controls if the glass is broken. Food splatter or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken control panel or cooktop and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately should your glass control panel or cooktop become broken.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

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 service; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

■ To minimize the possibility of burns,

ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending 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 off.

■ Keep an eye on foods being fried at high

or medium high heat settings.

■ 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.

■ Use little fat for effective shallow or deep

fat frying. 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 frying, 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 cooktop. The

cooktop can be scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.

■ Large scratches or impacts to glass doors

or cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass.

■ 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 cooktop 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 utensils on glass cooktop 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 steam 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 off. Sugar spills are the exception to

this. Please see the Cleaning the glass cooktop section.

■ When the cooktop is cool, use only the

CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and the CERAMA BRYTE Ceramic Cooktop Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop.

■ 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 dry cloth or paper

towel to remove all cleaning cream residue.

■ Read and follow all instructions and

warnings on the cleaning cream labels.

■ Do not heat unopened food containers.

Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

■ Keep the oven vent unobstructed.

■ Keep the oven free from grease buildup.

■ Place the oven rack in the desired position

while the oven is cool. If racks must be handled when hot, do not let pot holder contact the heating elements.

■ When using cooking or roasting bags in

the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

■ Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a

convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also a precaution against burns from touching hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.

■ Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.

If overheated, they can catch on fire.

■ Do not use the oven for a storage area.

Items stored in an oven can ignite.

■ Do not leave paper products, cooking

utensils or food in the oven when not in use.

■ Do not use aluminum foil to line oven

bottoms, except as suggested in this manual. Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.

WARNING!

OVEN

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

■ Do not clean the door gasket. The door

gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.

■ Before self-cleaning the oven, remove

the racks, broiler pan, grid and other cookware.

■ Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before

starting the self-cleaning operation.

■ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,

turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

■ Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s

Manual.

NOTE: Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.

How to Set

Push the knob in and turn in either direction to the setting you want.

At both OFF and HI the control clicks into position. You may hear slight clicking sounds during cooking, indicating the control is keeping the power level you set.

A HOT SURFACE indicator light, on the cooktop, will glow when any radiant element is turned on. It will remain on until the surface is cooled to approximately 150°F.

Hot surface indicator light will:

■ come on when the unit is hot to the touch.

■ stay on even after the unit is turned off.

■ glow until the unit is cooled to approximately

150°F.

The WARM setting on the right REAR surface unit keeps already heated food warm until ready to serve. Do not use to heat cold food.

Page 7

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because it can scratch the glass—the glass is scratch-resistant, not scratch-proof.

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 units off for a time if:

■ 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.

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

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavyweight 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, lightweight 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.

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

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.

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

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

Use only flat-bottomed woks.

Wok Cooking

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

Do not use round-bottom woks. You could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions

Page 9

Note: Flat-bottomed canners are required for glass cooktops.

Pots that extend beyond 1″ of the surface unit’s circle are not recommended for most surface cooking. However, when canning with water-bath or pressure canner, larger-diameter pots may be used. This is because boiling water temperatures (even under pressure) are not harmful to the cooktop surfaces surrounding the surface units.

HOWEVER, DO NOT USE LARGEDIAMETER CANNERS OR OTHER LARGE-DIAMETER POTS FOR FRYING OR BOILING FOODS OTHER THAN WATER. Most syrup or sauce mixtures—and all types of frying—cook at temperatures much higher than boiling water. Such temperatures could eventually harm the glass cooktop surfaces.

Be sure the canner fits over the center of the surface unit. If your cooktop or its location does not allow the canner to be centered on the surface unit, use smallerdiameter pots for good canning results.

Flat-bottomed canners must be used. Do not use canners with flanged or rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) because they don’t make enough contact with the surface units and take a long time to boil water.

When canning, use recipes and procedures from reputable sources. Reliable recipes and procedures are available from the manufacturer of your canner; manufacturers of glass jars for canning, such as Ball®and Kerr

brand; and the United States Department of Agriculture Extension Service.

Remember that canning is a process that generates large amounts of steam. To avoid burns from steam or heat, be careful when canning.

NOTE: If your house has low voltage, canning may take longer than expected, even though directions have been carefully followed. The process time will be shortened by:

(1) using a pressure canner, and

( 2) starting with HOT tap water for fastest

heating of large quantities of water.

CAUTION:

■ Safe canning requires that harmful

microorganisms are destroyed and that the jars are sealed completely. When canning foods in a water-bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained for the required time. When canning foods in a pressure canner, the pressure must be maintained for the required time.

■ After you have adjusted the controls,

it is very important to make sure the prescribed boil or pressure levels are maintained for the required time.

■ Since you must make sure to process

the canning jars for the prescribed time, with no interruption in processing time, do not can on any cooktop surface unit if your canner is not flat.

Aluminum Foil

You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.

Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat juices from draining into the broiler pan. The juices could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you do not cut the slits, you are essentially frying, not broiling.

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.

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

How to Set the Oven for Broiling

Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven.

NOTE: Food can be broiled with the door closed, but it may not brown as well because the oven heating element will cycle on and off.

Place the meat or fish on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.

Follow suggested rack positions in the Broiling Guide.

Touch the BROIL HI/LO pad once for

HI Broil. To change to LO Broil, touch the

BROIL HI/LO pad again.

Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without over-browning them.

Touch the START pad. When broiling is finished, touch the

CLEAR/OFF pad.

NOTE: Broil will not work if the temperature

probe is plugged in.

The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times. This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.

Using the probe.

ge.com

For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.

Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe or oven control.

Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the food and outlet.

■ To avoid damaging your probe, do not use

tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.

■ To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food

is completely defrosted before inserting.

■ To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the

probe from the outlet until the oven has cooled.

■ Never leave your probe inside the oven during

a self-cleaning cycle.

■ Do not store the probe in the oven.

The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at one end and a plug at the other end that goes into the outlet in the oven.

After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet or on the broiler pan grid, follow these directions for proper probe placement.

Insert the probe completely into the meat. It should not touch bone, fat or gristle.

For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the lowest large muscle.

Insert the probe into the center of dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles.

Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg of a whole turkey.

Because heated air is circulated evenly throughout the oven, foods can be baked with excellent results using multiple racks.

The amount of time required for multi-rack baking may increase slightly for some foods, but overall time is saved because two to three times as much food is cooked at once. Cookies, muffins, biscuits, and other quick breads give good results with multi-rack baking.

To cook food on more than one rack in convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE MULTI.

When baking on 3 racks, place one rack in the second (B) position, one in the fourth (D) position and one in the sixth (F) position.

casseroles or main dishes have been developed using commercial convection ovens. For best results in this oven, preheat the oven and use the temperature on the package.

Convection Fan

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 with convection heat.

NOTE: The convection fan will cycle on and off while cooking to best distribute hot air in the oven.

The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.

Multi-Rack Convection Baking

Multi-rack position.

The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food using the bake and broil elements.

When convection baking with only 1 rack, use CONVECTION BAKE 1 RACK and for best results place the rack on shelf C or D at the center of the oven. Cook times may decrease, so food should be checked earlier than package directions to make sure that it does not overcook.

Ideal for cooking large casseroles and lasagna with good results.

■ You will hear a fan while cooking with

convection. The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off.

■ You may hear the oven clicking during

baking. This is normal.

Cookware for Convection Cooking

Before using your convection oven, check to see if your cookware leaves room for air circulation in the oven. If you are baking with several pans, leave space between them. Also, be sure the pans do not touch each other or the walls of the oven.

Paper and Plastic

Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers that are recommended for use in regular ovens can be used in convection ovens. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 400°F can also be used.

Metal and Glass

Any type of cookware will work in your convection oven. However, metal pans heat the fastest and are recommended for convection baking.

■ Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake

faster than shiny pans.

■ Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.

For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate well around food in a pan with high sides.

How to Set the Oven for Convection Baking or Roasting

Convection Roast

■ Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered.

The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under and around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.

When you are convection roasting it is important that you use the broiler pan and grid and the special roasting rack for best convection roasting results. The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters, while the rack allows the heated air to circulate under the meat and increase browning on the underside of the meat or poultry.

■ Place the rack in the lowest rack

position (A).

■ Place the grid on the broiler pan

and put the roasting rack over them, making sure the posts on the roasting rack fit into the holes in broiler pan.

■ Place the meat on the roasting rack.

Using the proofing and warming features. ge.com

The proofing feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products.

How to Set the Oven For Proofing

Place the covered dough in a dish in the oven on shelf B or C.

NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or with greased plastic wrap (the plastic may need to be anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will not blow it off).

Touch the PROOF pad and then the START pad.

The display will read PrF (proof). The oven interior light turns on and

remains on during proofing. The proofing feature automatically

provides the optimum temperature for the proofing process, and therefore does not have a temperature adjustment.

Set the KITCHEN TIMER ON/OFF for the minimum proof time.

When proofing is finished, touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.

■ To avoid lowering the oven temperature

and lengthening proofing time, do not open the oven door unnecessarily.

■ Check bread products early to avoid

over-proofing.

NOTE:

■ Do not use the proofing mode for warming

food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the WARM feature to keep food warm.

■ Proofing will not operate when oven is above

125°F. “HOT” will show in the display.

How to Set the Oven For Warming

The warm feature keeps cooked foods warm for up to 3 hours after the cooking function is finished, or it can be activated independently to keep already cooked foods warm.

This feature is not designed to reheat cold food.

To use this feature independently, touch the WARM pad and then the START pad.

To activate this feature for use after Timed Baking or Roasting, touch the WARM pad after setting the desired length of cooking time and before touching START.

To Crisp Stale Items

■ Place food in low-sided dishes or pans.

■ For best results, place the food items in

a single layer. Do not stack.

■ Leave them uncovered.

■ Check crispness after 20–30 minutes.

Add time as needed.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

■ Food should be kept hot in its cooking

container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.

■ For moist foods, cover them with an oven-safe

lid or aluminum foil.

■ Fried or crisp foods do not need to be covered,

but can become too dry if warmed for too long.

■ Repeated opening of the door allows the hot

air to escape and the food to cool.

■ Allow extra time for the temperature inside the

oven to stabilize after adding items.

■ With large loads it may be necessary to cover

some of the cooked food items.

■ Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing

containers in the oven.

■ Do not use plastic containers, lids or plastic

wrap.

CAUTION:Plastic containers, lids

or plastic wrap will melt if placed in the oven. Melted plastic may not be removable and is not covered under your warranty.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

You may 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 only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it will not affect broiling, convection or self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

To Adjust the Thermostat

Touch the BROIL HI/LO and BAKE pads at the same time for 3 seconds until the display shows SF.

Touch the BAKE pad. A two-digit number shows in the display.

Touch BAKE again to alternate between increasing and decreasing the oven temperature.

The oven temperature can be adjusted up to (+) 35ºF hotter or (-) 35ºF cooler. Touch the number pads the same way you read them. For example, to change the oven temperature 15ºF, touch 1 and 5.

When you have made the adjustment, touch the START pad to go back to the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally.

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.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.

Using the self-cleaning oven. ge.com

The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle.

Remove the racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, probe, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

The oven racks can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

Soil on the front frame of the range and outside the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-filled steel-wool pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub®. Rinse well with clean water and dry.

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.

Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well- ventilated room.

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

Touch the SELF CLEAN LO/STD pad once for a 4-hour clean time or twice for a 3-hour clean time.

A 3-hour self-clean time is recommended for use when cleaning small, contained spills. A self-clean time of 4 hours or longer is recommended for a dirtier oven.

If a time other than 4 hours or 3 hours is needed, use the number pads and enter the desired clean time.

You can change the clean time to any time between 3 hours and 5 hours, depending on how dirty your oven is.

Touch the START pad.

The door locks automatically. The display will show the clean time remaining. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature and the LOCKED light goes off.

To remove:

Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves of the socket.

Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb by pulling it straight out.

To replace:

Use a new 130-volt halogen bulb, not to exceed 50 watts.

Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb from its packaging. Do not touch the bulb with bare fingers.

Push the bulb straight into the receptacle all the way.

Place the tabs of the glass cover into the grooves of the socket. Turn the glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn.

Removable Oven Floor

To remove the oven floor:

Remove the oven door using the instructions in the Lift-Off Oven Door section.

Press down and pull out the removable oven floor.

Clean the oven floor with warm soapy water.

When reinstalling the oven floor, be sure to slide it all the way to the back of the oven.

IMPORTANT: Always replace the removable floor before the next use.

All oven racks and the convection roasting rack may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the racks with clean water and dry with a clean cloth. Gray porcelain-coated oven racks may remain in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle without being damaged. The convection roasting rack and nickel-plated oven

racks may remain in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle, but they will lose their luster and become hard to slide. It will be necessary to grease all oven rack side edges with a light coating of vegetable oil after cleaning them by hand or in the oven. This will help maintain the ease of sliding the racks in and out of the oven.

Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in a dishwasher.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere in the range.

Oven Heating Elements

Do not clean the broil element. Any soil will burn off when the element is heated. Clean the oven floor with warm, soapy water.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water, a stainless steel cleaner such as Kleen King

or an all-purpose liquid or spray cleaner. Always scrub in the direction of the grain. Rinse thoroughly with a sponge or cloth and clean water. Dry with a soft, clean cloth.

After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish, such as Stainless Steel Magic

, Revere Copper and Stainless Steel Cleaner®or Wenol All Purpose Metal Polish®. Follow the product instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.

Painted Surfaces

Painted surfaces include the door, top of the control panel and the drawer front. Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and water solution.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.

Cleaning the glass cooktop.

Allow the cooktop to cool. Use a single-edge razor blade

scraper at approximately a 45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the soil. It will be necessary to apply pressure to the razor scraper in order to remove the residue.

After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the entire burned residue area. Use the CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad to remove any remaining residue.

For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and a paper towel.

Burned-On Residue

WARNING: DAMAGE to your glass surface

may occur if you use scrub pads other than the pad included with your cooktop.

Allow the cooktop to cool. Spread a few drops of CERAMA

BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the entire burned residue area.

Using the included CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops, rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.

If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above as needed.

The CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Scraper and all recommended supplies are available through our Parts Center. See instructions under “To Order Parts” section on next page.

NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

Heavy, Burned-On Residue

Use a CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.

Normal Daily Use Cleaning

ONLY use CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective.

To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:

Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

Daily use of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.

Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner

directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or CERAMA

BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.

Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse.

NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.

b. Remove the spill with

Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.

Don’t use the surface units again until all of the residue has been completely removed.

NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.

Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic

Our testing shows that if you are cooking high sugar mixtures such as jelly or fudge and have a spillover, it can cause permanent damage to the glass surface unless the spillover is immediately removed.

Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface.

These marks are removable using the CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the CERAMA BRYTE®Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.

If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop.

This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.

WARNING: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.
