tl WARNING! ..........

SURFACEBURNERS -

Use proper pan size avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having fiat bottoms large enough to cover bumer grates. To avoid spiftovers,make sure cookware is large enough

to contain the food properly. Thiswill both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy spattering or spiftoversleft on range can ignite. Usepans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain cool.

Always use the LEE position Ion electric ignition models) or the Ht position (onstanding

pilot models) when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.

Never 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. Excessiveflame is hazardous.

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.

_ When using glass cookware, make sure it

is designed for top-of-range cooking.

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. Carefully watch foods being fried at a high

flame setting. Alwags heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. 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.-

_ Ifa combination of oils or fats wilt be used in

frying, stir together before heating or as fats

melt slowly.

_ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond

the smoking point.

Usethe least possible amount of fat for

effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Fillingthe pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when

food isadded.

_Do not flame foods on the Cooktop.lfgou do

flame foods under the hood. turn the fan on.

@Do not use a wok onthe cooking surface

ifthe wok has _ round meto ring that is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as aheat 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 levelabove that allowed bg current

standards, resulting in a health hazard.

@Foodsfor frying should beas dry as possible.

Froston frozen foods or moisture on fresh

foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and

over the sides of the pan.

£_!Never trg to move a pan of hot fat, especially

a deep fat frger. Wait untit the fat iscool.

i® Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop-

theg mag melt if left too close to the vent. Keep all plastics awag from the surface

burners;

_To avoid the possibilitg of a burn, alwags be

certain thatthe 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. If gou smell gas, turn off the gas to the range

and call o qualified service technician. Never usean open flame to locate a leak.

SURFACEBURNERS(cont.)

Alwags turn the surface burner controls off before removing cookware.

Donot lift the cool_op on sealed burner

...... models. Lifting the cooktop can lead to

damage and imp[oper operation of the range.

When a pilot goes out {on standing pilot

models), gou will detect a faint odor of gas as gour signal to relight the pilot. When relighting the pilot, make sure burner controIs

are in the Off positiOn_and follow instructions in this book to religitt.

If gou smell gas, and gou have atreadg made

sure pilots are lit (on standing pilot models),

'turn offthe gas to the range and call a

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat).Ifgou

decrease the fat, the recipe mug not give the some results as with a higher fat product.

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

content of o spread product, the more noticeable these differences become. Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat bg weight. Low-fat spreads, on the

other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content ofthese spreads affects the texture and flavor

of bakedgoods.Forbestresultswith gour aidfavorite recipes,usemargarine, butteror stickspreadscontainingat least

AWARNINGJ

ANTI-TIP.DEVICE

• All ranges can tip.

• BURNSorother SERIOUS

INJURIEScan result.

-INSTALL and CHECK the ANTi-TIP bracket following

the instructions supplied

With the bracket.

Toreduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured bg a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See instaftation instructions shipped with

the bracket for complete details beforeattempting to install.

Tocheck if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, carefully tip the range forward. The bracket

should stop the range within 4 inches, lf itdoes not, the bracket must be reinstalled. If the range ispulled

from the waft for any reason, always repeat this

procedure to verifg the range is properlg secured by the anti-tip:bracket.

For free-standing or slide-in ranges, never

completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip deviceproperly.

ff gou did not receive an anti-tip bracket with gour purchase, ca!l 1-800-626-8774to receive one'at no cost (in Canada, call 2-800-561G344).For installation instructions of the bracket; visit

GEAppliances.com (inCanada, GEAppliances.ca).

LOCATION

Do not locate the range where it mag be subject to strong drafts. Ang openings in the floor or

wall behind the range should be sealed. Hake sure the openings around the base of the range

that supplg fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed bg carpeting

or woodwork.

Your range, like mang other household items, is heavg and can settle into soft floor coverings such

as cushioned vingl or carpeting, Use care when moving the range on this tgpe of flooring, t is

recommended that the following simple and inexpensive nstructions be followed to protect

gour floor.

The range should be installed on a sheet of

plgwood (or similar material). When the floor

covering ends at the front of the range, the area

that the range wilt rest on should be built up With

plgwood to the same level or higher than the floor covering.

This wil allow the range to be moved for cleaning

or servicing. Also, make sure gour floor covering

will withstand 180°R (See the Installation Safety Instructions section.}

Hake surethe wall coverings around gout range

can withstand the heat generated (upto 200°F)bg the range.(Seethe Installation Safety Instructions

section.]

MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER LOCATION

Depending on gour range, gou'll find the model

and serial numbers on a label on the front frame of

the range, behind the kick panel or broiler drawer.

IMPORTANT!

Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are propertg seated and level.

Lift up the cooktop (on models with standard

twin burners) and remove ang packing material

under it.

Take the accessorg pack out of the oven and/or drawer.

Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose during shipping.

Installation Instructions

[] PROVIDE ADEQUATE GAS SUPPLY

Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 4" of water column on natural gas

or, if designed for LPgas (propane or butane),

10" of water column. Make sure you are supplying your range with

the type of gas for which it is designed. This range is convertible for use on natural or

propane gas. If you decide to use this range

on LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified LPinstaller before attempting to

operate the range on that gas, For proper operation, the pressure of natural

gas supptied to the regulator must be between 4" and 13" of water column.

For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 10" and 13" of water column.

When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1" greater than the operating (manifold) pressure

as given above. The pressure regulator located at the inlet of

the range manifold must remain in the supplg

line regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being used.

A flexible metal c ppliance connector used to connect the range to the gas supplg line

should have an I.D.of 1/2" and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation. In Canada,

flexible connectors must be single wall metal

connectors no longer than 6 feet inlength.

[_]CONNECT THE RANGE TO GAS

Shut offthe main gas supplg valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off

until the new hookup has been cam pleted. Don't forget to relight the pilot on other gas

appliances when £1outurn the gas back on.

Because hard piping restricts movement of the range, the use of a CSA International-

certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes require

a hard-piped connection.

Never use an old connector when installing a new range. If the hard piping method is Used,

you must carefully align the pipe;,the range

cannot be moved after the connection is made.

TQprevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or wrap pipe thread tc pewith Teflon* around, all mate (external) pipe threads.

[] nsta a manual gas line shut-off valve in the

gas line n an easily accesSedlocation Outside of the range, lake sure everyone operating the

range knows Where and how to shut offthe gas

supplg to the range.

[-_ Install male 1/2" flare u nion adapter to the 1/2"

NPT internal thread at inlet of regulator. Use a backup wrench on the regulator fitting to

avoid damage.

[] Install male 1/2" or 3/4" flare union adapter to

the NPT interna thread of the manual shut-off valve, taking care to back up the shut-off valve to keep it from turning.

[_ Connect ftexibie metal appliance connector

to the adapter on the range. Position range

to permit connection at the shut-off valve

[] When all connections have been made,

make sure all range controls are in the off position and turn on the main gas supply

valve. Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to Check for teaks in the

system.

i WARNING DO NOT USE A FLAME

TO CHECK FORGAS LEAKS.

When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig to pressure test the gas supplg sgstem of the residence, disconnect the range and

individual shut-offvalve from the gas supplg piping. When using test pressures of 1/2 psig

or less to test the gas supplg sgstem, sim pig isolate the range from the gas supplg sgstem

bg closing the individual shut-off valve.
