WARNING!

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE

The Califomb Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement 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.

Gasappliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas or
LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting with an open

window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
Fluorescent light bulbs and safety valves on standing pilot ranges contain mercury. If your model has

these features, they must be recycled according to local, state and federal codes.

WARNING!

SURFACEBURNERS

Use proper pan size--avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover bumer grates. Toavoid spillovers, 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 onrange can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped

and remain cool

How to Select Flame Size

Forsafe handlingof cookware, neverlet the flames
extend up thesides of the cookware.

Watch the flame, not the knob, as you
reduce heat. The flalne size (>I] a gas buri]er
should match the cookware w)u are using.

In Case of Power Failure

hi case of a power fidlure, you can light the
gas smti_ce burners on vour range with a
match. Hold a lit match to the burnei; then

push in and mrn the control knob to the
LITE position. ILrseextreme caution when

lighting burners this way:

The laigest burners are higher powered
than the others and will bring liquids to

Before Lighting a Gas Burner

:_ If (1IiI) pans are supplied with your range,

they should be used at all times.

:_ Make sure all grates on the range are in

place before using any burnei:

After Lighting a Gas Burner

:_ Do not operate the burner for an

extended period of time without
cookware on the grate. The finish on

the grate may chip without cookware

Top-of-Range Cookware

Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is

recommended because it heats quickly
and e;'enk. Most foods brown evenly in an

aluminum skillet. Use saucei)ans with tight-

Stove Top Grills

Do not use stove top grills on vour sealed
gas burne_. If you use the stove top grill

on tile sealed gas burne_; it will cause
incomplete combustion and can result

in exposure to cm4)on monoxide levels

Glass: There are two types of glass
cookware--those ti)r oven rise onlY and

those for toi>ofXrange cooking (saucepans,
coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat

very slowly:

either SUltilce or oven cooking. It conducts
heat very slowly and cools very slowly: Check

cookware i/lantllilCttli'ei"s directions to be

sure it can be used on gas ranges.

Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor

Adjustthe oventhermostat--Do it yourself! www.GEAppliances.com

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.

Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary20-40 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 bakingperformanc!!

Most recipes for baking have been developed us&g 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 higherfat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. Thelower the fat

content of aspread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled "Ill_lI'g_lI'ine" to cont_lin _lt least 80% lilt by weight, i,ow tilt spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less tilt and more water: Tile high moisture content of these spreads afli_cts tile mxmre and flavor

of baked goods. For best results with yore" old tm'orite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.

WARNING!ANTI-TIPDEVICE

All ranges can tip andinjury could result.

Toprevent accidental tipping of the range, attach an approved Anti--fTpdevice to the wall. (See Installing
theAnti--tip Device in this section.) Tocheck if the device is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip
the range forward. The Anti--tip device should engage and prevent the range from tipping over.

If you puff the range out from the wall for any reason, make sure the Anti--tip device is engaged when
you push the range back against the wall.

For your safety, ne',>r use your range for wam/ing oi heating tile room. Your oven and cooktop

are not designed m heat your kitchen. Top burners should not be operamd without cookware
on the grate. Such abuse could iesnlt ill fire and damag_ to your range and will _id your

warranl-v.

Do not store oi use combustible mamfials, gasoline oi other flammable vapors and liquids ill

the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Explosions or fiies could result.

Do not use oven for a storag> area. Imms stored in file oxen can ignim.

Do not let cooking grease or oilier flammable mamrials accnmnlate ill or near file rang>.

LOCATION

Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or wall behind
the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of the range that supply fresh air
for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.

Your rang.e, like many other household imms,

[] Connect the Range to Gas

Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off until the new
hook-up has been completed. Don't forget to relight the pilot on other gas appliances when /ou turn
the gas back on.

Because hard piping restricts movement _ff the []
