SAFETY INFORMATION

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

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

STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING

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

Self clean ovens can cause low level exposure to some of the Proposition 65 substances, including carbon monoxide, during the cleaning cycle. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by opening a window or using a ventilation fan or hood.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

WARNING

Tip-Over Hazard

A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

Verify the anti-tip bracket has been properly installed and engaged.

Ensure the anti-tip bracket is re-engaged when the range is moved.

Do not operate the range without the anti-tip bracket in place and engaged.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel can be removed for easy inspection. If visual inspection is not possible, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the rear leveling leg is under the anti-tip bracket.

To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before attempting to install.

For Free-Standing and Slide-In Ranges

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, look underneath the range to see that the rear leveling leg is engaged in the bracket.

Anti-Tip

Bracket

If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.

Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.

For Drop-In Ranges

To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to the rear of the range, and slide the range back so that the anti-tip bracket slides just under the countertop or wood block attached to the rear wall.

If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost (in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation instructions of the bracket, visit GEAppliances.com (in Canada, GEAppliances.ca).

ŶOnly 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.

ŶTo 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.

ŶWhen preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.

ŶIf power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back on as soon as power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure to turn all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may result in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury or death.

USING THE RANGE: Oven Racks

Oven Racks

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,

HQVXUH WKHUH LV DW OHDVW ò EHWZHHQ SDQV WR DOORZ sufficient space for air to flow.

Your Oven may have extension racks and/or traditional flat racks.

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

Extension Racks

Always pull the rack out by its upper front rail to its fully open position, when placing or removing cookware.

If extension racks are difficult to extend, lubricate the racks with the graphite lubricant provided with your oven. Remove the rack from the oven,remove debris in the side tracks with paper towel, shake the graphite lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the rack several times to distribute the lubricant.

To order additional graphite lubricant, read the Assistance and Accessories section at the beginning of the manual.

To Remove An Extension Rack:

1.Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the oven so that side paddles on the rack disengage from the oven support.

2.Slide the rack toward you to the bump (stop position) on the rack support.

3.Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the sliding rack, tilt the front end up and pull it out.

To Replace An Extension Rack:

1.Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the sliding rack.

2.Place the curved end of the rack (stop-locks) onto the oven supports, tilt up the front of the rack and push it in as far as it will go.

If extension racks are difficult to replace or remove, wipe the oven rack supports with cooking oil. Do not wipe oil on the rack slides.

To Lubricate the Paddle:

Shake lubricant and apply to the moving parts of the paddle mechanisms as shown.

The number of rack positions may vary by model.

Cookware Guidelines

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

'DUN FRDWHG DQG GXOO SDQV DEVRUE KHDW PRUH UHDGLO\ 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 RANGE: 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.

Baking Modes

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.

Traditional Bake

The traditional bake mode is intended for single rack cooking. This mode uses heat primarily from the lower element but also from the upper element to cook food. To use this mode press the Bake pad, use the +/- pads to set the desired temperature, and then press Start. Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode.

Broiling Modes

Always broil with the door open. Monitor food closely

ZKLOH EURLOLQJ 8VH FDXWLRQ ZKHQ EURLOLQJ RQ XSSHU UDFN 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 7 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
