SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING

Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING

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.

WARNING This product contains one or more chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Self-clean ovens can cause low-level exposure to some of these substances, including carbon monoxide, during the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

WARNING GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your oven unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be transferred to a qualified technician.

Before performing any service, disconnect the 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 climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance.

CAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children in cabinets above an oven - children climbing on the oven to reach items could be seriously injured.

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 heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.

Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

Do not touch 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 any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening and crevices around the oven door.

Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.

Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and a shock or fire hazard.

Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur.

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.

OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

 

 

 

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

Keep the oven vent unobstructed.

Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the oven may ignite.

Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let pot holder contact hot heating element in oven.

When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.

Pulling out the standard racks to their stop-locks or the extension rack to its fully open position 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 leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.

Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Foil can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and a shock or fire hazard.

WARNING SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the

oven. Follow these instructions for safe operation.

Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean operation. Keep children away from the oven during self-cleaning. Failure to follow these instructions may cause burns.

Before self-cleaning the oven, remove shiny silver colored oven racks (on some models), the probe, any aluminum foil, and any broiler pan, grid, and other cookware. Only porcelain coated oven racks may be left in the oven.

Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease may ignite, leading to smoke damage to your home.

If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

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.

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.

USING THE OVEN: Special Features

Special Features

There are several different special features on your wall oven. To change the settings of these special features, press the BAKE and BROIL pads at the same time and hold for three seconds. "SF" will appear in the display. Select the feature you want to change. When the change has been made, press the START key to save the change

and return to the time of day.

This feature allows the oven baking temperature to be adjusted up to 35ºF hotter or down to 35ºF cooler. Use this feature if you believe your oven temperature is too hot or too cold and wish to change it. For double oven models, the upper and lower ovens are adjusted separately.

Press the Bake pad to select the oven to be adjusted. Press the Bake pad again to enter the temperature adjustment mode. A number between 35 and - 35 will display. Use the number pads to set the desired temperature adjustment and use the Bake pad to change between negative and positive.

Press the Start pad to save the temperature adjustment.

End of Timer Signals

This is the tone that signals the end of a timer. The tone can be continuous (Con bEEP) or one repeating beep (bEEP). A continuous setting will continue to sound a tone until a button on the control is pressed. Press the Broil pad to view the current setting and then to change the setting.

Fahrenheit or Celsius Temperature Display

The oven control is set to use Fahrenheit temperatures (F), but you can change it to use Celsius temperatures

(C). Press the Broil and Cook Time pads at the same time to view the current setting, press again to change the setting.

Clock Display

This feature specifies how the time of day will be displayed or if no time of day will be displayed.

12-hour auto shut-off and Sabbath

Options for this feature are “12 SHdn”, “no SHdn” and “SAbbAtH”.

12-hour auto shut-off turns off the oven after 12 hours of continuous operations.

Sabbath mode disables the oven lights (the oven light will not turn on when the door is opened), all sounds (the control will not beep when a button is pressed), Broil, Warm, Proof, Cook Time, Timer, Clock, and Delay Time functions. Sabbath mode can only be used with Bake. This feature conforms to the Star-K Jewish Sabbath requirements.

Press and hold the Bake and Broil pads for 3 seconds to enter special features.

Press the Delay Time pad to view the current setting and then to change the setting.

To use Sabbath mode, select “SAbbAtH” and press Start. A ] will appear in the display and the clock will not display.

Note that if you have a double wall oven, when you place the control into Sabbath mode, both ovens are now in Sabbath mode and available for cooking.

Once in Sabbath mode, at any time you can press Bake, use the number pads to enter a temperature between 170F and 550F, and press Start. No sound will be given when the keys are pressed. At a random time between 30 seconds and 1 minute, ][, will appear in the display indicating the oven is running.

Note that both ovens of a double wall oven can be used in Sabbath mode. Each oven can be programmed

to a different temperature and each oven must be programmed separately.

If you need to adjust the temperature, press Bake, use the number pads to enter a new temperature between 170F and 550F, and press Start.

To turn the oven off, press Cancel/Off at any time. The oven will immediately turn off and ][ will change to ] indicating that the oven has turned off.

Note that each oven of a double wall oven must be turned off separately.

To exit Sabbath mode, make sure that the oven is turned off. Press and hold the Bake and Broil pads for 3 seconds to enter special features then press Delay Time until either “12 Shdn” or “no Shdn” is in the display and press Start.

NOTE: If power outage occurs during Sabbath mode the unit will remain in Sabbath mode but off when power is restored.

If you wish to use the Cook Time feature to bake in the oven and then have the oven automatically turn off, you will need to press the Cook Time button, enter a cooking time duration, and press Start. Then enter special features to start Sabbath mode as detailed above.

GE JK3500DFBB, JT3500SFSS, JK3500SFSS, JT3500DFCC, JK3500DFCC Owner's Manual

Oven Racks

Your oven has six rack positions. Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide. Adjusting rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving them down next time.

When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks, ensure there is sufficient space between pans to allow air to flow.

Flat Racks

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.

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

To replace, place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push the rack in.

Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean. Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub onto the left and right edges.

CAUTION: Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking stones, aluminum foil or any other items on the oven floor. There is a heating element beneath the oven floor. Placing items on the oven floor may cause the oven to overheat, resulting in damage to the oven and risk of damage or fire to cabinets.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottoms. The foil will trap heat below and upset the performance of the oven. Foil can melt and permanently damage the oven bottom. Damage from improper use of aluminum foil is not covered by the product warranty.

Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2” from oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.

Cookware

Cookware Guidelines

The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance.

Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper, and thicker crust. If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier than minimum cook time. If undesirable results are obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25º F next time.

Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.

Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well. These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.

Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.

Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

USING THE OVEN: Cooking Modes

Cooking Modes

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommendations for specific foods. Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.

Bake

The bake mode is for baking and roasting. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower element but also from the upper element to cook food. When preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries always preheat the oven first. Follow recipe recommendations for food placement. If no guidelines are provided center food in the oven. To use this mode press the Bake pad, enter a temperature, and then press Start.

Proof

Proof mode is designed for rising (fermenting and proofing) bread doughs. Press the Proof pad and then press Start. Cover dough well to prevent drying out. Bread will rise more rapidly than at room temperature. Note that for double wall ovens, proof can not be run when running a clean mode in the lower oven.

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot for up to 3 hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad then press Start. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. Preheating is not required. Do not use warm to heat cold food other than crisping crackers, chips or dry cereal. It is also recommended that food not be kept warm for more than 2 hours.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door closed. The broil element in this oven is very powerful. Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and the possibility of fats igniting. For best performance center food below the broil heating element. Broiling on rack position 6 is not recommended.

Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food. Place foods closer to the broil element when a seared surface and rare interior is desired. Thicker foods and foods that need to be cooked through should be broiled on a rack position farther from the broiler or by using Broil Lo.

Broil Hi

The Broil Hi mode uses intense heat from the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil Hi for thinner cuts of meat and/or foods you prefer less done on the interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Broil Lo

The Broil Lo mode uses less intense heat from the upper element to cook food thoroughly while also producing surface browning. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked all the way through. To use this mode press the Broil pad twice and then press Start. It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.
