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 or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

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 technician 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 referred to a qualified technician.

■ Have the installer show you the location

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

■ Before performing any service, disconnect

the oven 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. They could damage the oven, or cause severe personal injury.

■ Be sure the oven is securely installed in a

cabinet that is firmly attached to the house structure. Never allow anyone to climb, sit, stand or hang on the oven door.

■ Never leave the oven door open when you

are not watching the oven.

■ Always keep combustible wall coverings,

curtains or drapes a safe distance from your oven.

■ Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot

holders and other linens a safe distance from your oven.

■ Always keep wooden and plastic utensils

and canned food a safe distance away from your oven.

■ Teach children not to play with the

controls or any other part of the oven.

■ Large scratches or impacts to glass doors

can lead to broken or shattered glass.

■ Do not store flammable materials in

an oven.

■

CAUTION: Items of interest to

children should not be stored in cabinets above an oven; children climbing on the oven 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 in cabinets over the oven. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with hot surfaces 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 heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.

■ 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 oven.

■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never

pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.

■ Flame in the oven can be smothered

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

■ Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in

or near your oven.

■ Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

■ 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.

■ 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.

■ 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.

■ Potentially hot surfaces include oven vent

openings, surfaces near the openings, crevices around the oven door, the edges of the window and metal trim parts above the door.

■ REMEMBER : The inside surface of the oven

may be hot when the door is opened.

■ Never place cooking utensils 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.

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

■ 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.

■ After broiling, always take any broiler pan

out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease in a broiler pan can catch fire next time you use the pan.

■ Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s

Manual.

■ 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.

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 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. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.

■ Before self-cleaning the oven, remove any

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.

Aluminum Foil

Aluminum foil may be used to catch a spillover.

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.

Using the oven. ge.com

To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Before you begin…

The racks have stop-locks, 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 to the bump 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 end of the rack (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the rack in.

CAUTION: Never place cooking utensils 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.

The oven has 7 rack positions.

How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting

Press the Bake pad.

On models with number pads, press them in order to set the desired temperature.

On models with Temp + and – pads, press them to increase or decrease the set desired temperature.

Press the Start pad.

Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.

Press the Clear/Off pad when cooking is complete.

NOTE: On some models, the lower oven is controlled with a knob. To set the oven for baking, turn the knob to the desired setting or temperature. Turn the knob to OFF when baking is complete.

For 27 ″ Ovens: If baking four cake layers at the same time, place two layers on rack A and two layers on rack C.

For 30 ″ Ovens: 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.

NOTE: A cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run even after the oven is turned off.

Adapting Recipes…

You can use your favorite recipes in the convection oven.

When convection baking, reduce baking temperature by 25°F or activate the Auto Recipe™Conversion feature. See Auto

Recipe™Conversion in the Special features of your oven control section.

■ Use pan size recommended.

■ Some package instructions for frozen

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.

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.

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.

■ Ideal for evenly browned baked foods cooked

on multiple racks.

■ Good for large quantities of baked foods.

■ Good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins,

brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet rolls, angel food cake and bread.

The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food.

When convection baking with only 1 rack, follow the rack positions recommended in the Using the oven section.

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

Multi-rack baking may increase cook times slightly for some foods but the overall result is time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits and other quickbreads give very good results with multi-rack baking.

For 30 ″ Ovens:

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.

For two-rack baking, place one rack in the second (B) rack position. Place the other rack in the fourth (D) rack position.

For 27 ″ Ovens:

When baking on 3 racks, place one rack in the first (A) position, one in the third (C) (offset) position and one in the fourth (D) position.

For two-rack baking, place one rack in the first (A) rack position. Place the other rack in the third (C) rack position.

Using the convection oven.

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

Press the Convection Bake pad or the Convection Roast pad.

Press the number pads to set the desired oven temperature.

Press the Start pad.

To change the oven temperature, press the Convection Bake or Convection Roast pad and then the number pads to set the new temperature.

When the oven starts to heat, the changing temperature, starting at 100°F, will be displayed. When the oven reaches the temperature you set, 3 beeps will sound.

Press the Clear/Off pad when finished.

■ 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.

Grid

Broiler pan

■ 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. 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 a broiler pan and grid for best convection roasting results. The pan is used to catch grease spills and the grid is used to prevent grease spatters.

When baking cookies, you will get the best results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead of a pan with low sides.

When the oven turns on at the time of day you have set, the display will show the changing temperature (starting at 100°F) and the cooking time. The display starts changing once the temperature reaches 100°F.

NOTE: On double oven models, when using both ovens at the same time, the times showing in the display will be for the last oven set. To display the time set for the first oven set, press the Delay Start or Cooking Time pad for that oven.

The oven will continue to cook for the programmed amount of time, then shut off automatically, unless the Cook and Hold feature was set. See the Special features of your oven control section.

Press the Clear/Off pad to clear the display if necessary. Remove the food from the oven. Remember, even though the oven shuts off automatically, food left in the oven will continue cooking after the oven turns off

Using the timed features for convection cooking. ge.com

On double oven models, you can use timed baking or roasting in one oven while using self-clean in the other; you can also use timed baking or roasting in both ovens at the same time.

You will hear a fan while cooking with these features. The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off.

How to Set an Immediate Start and Automatic Stop

The oven will turn on immediately and cook for a selected length of time. At the end of the cooking time, the oven will turn off automatically.

Make sure the clock shows the correct time of day.

Press the Convection Bake or Convection Roast pad.

Press the number pads to set the desired oven temperature.

Press the Cooking Time pad.

NOTE: If your recipe requires preheating, you may need to add additional time to the length of the cooking time.

Press the number pads to set the desired length of cooking time. The minimum cooking time you can set is 1 minute. The oven temperature that you set and the cooking time that you entered will be in the display.

Press the Start pad.

The display will show the changing temperature (starting at 100°F) and the cooking time. The display starts changing once the temperature reaches 100°F.

The oven will continue to cook for the programmed amount of time, then shut off automatically, unless the Cook and Hold feature was set. See the Special features of your oven control section.

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 does not affect broiling, convection or self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

To Adjust the Oven Thermostat (on some models)

Press the Bake and Broil Hi/Lo pads (on double oven models, use the upper oven controls) at the same time for 3 seconds until the display shows SF. Then proceed with steps 2 through 4, using the pads for the upper or lower oven.

Press the Bake pad. A two-digit number shows in the display.

On models with number pads, press Bake again to alternate between increasing and decreasing the oven temperature.

The oven temperature can be adjusted up to (+) 35°F hotter or (-) 35°F cooler.

On models with number pads, press them the same way you read them. For example, to change the oven temperature 15°F, press 1 and 5.

On models with Temp + and – pads, press them to increase or decrease the temperature in 1 degree increments.

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

To Adjust the Oven Thermostat (on some models)

Pull the OVEN knob off the shaft, look at the back of the knob and note the current setting before making any adjustment. The knob is factory set with the top screw directly under the pointer.

Pull off the OVEN knob.

Loosen both screws on back of the knob.

Hold both parts of the knob as shown in the illustration of the back of the OVEN knob and turn so the lower screw moves in the desired direction.

You will hear and feel the notches as you turn the knob. Each notch changes temperature about 10° Fahrenheit.

Tighten the screws.

Return the OVEN knob to the oven.

Re-check oven performance before making any additional adjustments.

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 affect 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.

Turn the disk counterclockwise to increase the oven temperature.

Turn the disk clockwise to decrease the oven temperature.

Using the self-cleaning oven. (on some models) ge.com

The oven door must be closed and all controls must be 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 any broiler pan, broiler grid, 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.

Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Clean the top, sides and outside of the oven door with soap and water.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover (on some models) 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 oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

■ On models with press pad controls

for both ovens, you can set a clean cycle in both ovens at the same time. The last oven set will automatically delay its start until the end of the first oven’s clean cycle.

■ On models with press pad controls for

both ovens, you can use timed baking in one oven and self-clean the other at the same time.

■ On models with a knob, the lower

oven does not have the self-clean feature.

Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. (appearance may vary)

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

Press the Self Clean 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 (on some models) or the Hour and Min + or – pads (on some models) 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.

Press 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.

When the LOCKED light goes off, you will be able to open the door.

■ The word LOCK will flash and the oven

control will signal if you set the clean cycle and forget to close the oven door.

■ To stop a clean cycle, press the

Clear/Off pad. When the LOCKED light goes off indicating the oven has cooled below the locking temperature, you will be able to open the door.

To recall the start time of the second oven set, press the Delay Start pad on the controls for the second oven.

After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a soap-filled scouring pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the cycle.

■ You cannot set the oven for cooking

until the oven is cool enough for the door to unlock.

■ If the racks become hard to slide, wipe

the rack supports with cooking oil.
