WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed tominimize the risk of fire, electric
shock, or toprevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

ANTI-TIPDEVICE

Toreduce 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.

Tocheck if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,

• All ranges can tip.

• BURNS or other SERIOUS
INJURIES can result.

• INSTALL and CHECK the
ANTI-TIP bracket following

the instructions supplied
with the bracket.

remove the storage drawer or kick panel and look underneath
the range to see that the leveling leg is engaged in the bracket.
On models without astorage drawer or kick panel, carefully tip
the range forward. The bracket should stop the range within

4 inches. If# does not, the bracket must be reinstalled. If the
range is pulled from the waft 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.

It you did not receive an anfi-dp bracket with your
purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at 11o

cost (in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344). For installation
instructions of the bracket, x,isit GEAppliances.com

IMPORTANTSAFETYNOTICE

The Cafifornia Safe Drinking Water and ToxicEnforcement 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.

Do not use wamr on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn tile controls off:

Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit
by coveting tile pan completely wkb

a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or fiat tray.
Use a multi-propose dxT chemical or

RADIANTSURFACEUNITS

Useproper pan size--select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating

element.Theuse of undersized cookware will exposea portion of thesurface unit todirect contact andmay
result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware tosurface unit will also improve efficiency.

Never lem'e die surface units unattended at
high heat settings. Believers cause smoking

and greasy spillovets that may catch on fire.
Only certain types of glass, gktssA:eramic,

eartbemvare or other glazed containers are
suitable for cookmp service; others may break
because of the sudden change in mmpetaune.

To minimize the possibilit T of burns, igmi6on
of flammable mamrials and spillage, the handle

of a container should be a]rned toward the
center of the range without extending over

nearby surface units.

Always turn the surface units off before

removing cookware.
When preparing flaming foods under the

hood, u]rn the fan on.
Use care when touching the cookmp.

The _ass surface of the cookmp will retain
heat after the controls have been turned off:

Keep an eye on foods being flied at high or
medium high heat settings.

Foods for flying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisu]re on flesh

foods can cause hot fat m bubble tap and
over the sides of the pan.

Use little fat for eff>ctive shallow or deep
fat flTing. Filling the pan me flail of fat can

cause spillovers when food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in flTing, stir together before heating, or

as fats melt slowly.

Always heat fat slowb,, and watch as it heats.

Use a deep fat tbermomemr whenever
possible m prevent overbearing fat beyond
the smoking point.

Avoid scratching the glass cookmp. The

cookmp can be scratched with imms such
as sharp insuuments, rings or otherjewehy,

and rivets on clothing.

Iarge scratches or impacts to glass doors or
cookmps can lead m broken or shattered glass.

Do not operate the radiant surface units if the
glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution

may penetram a broken cookmp and cream a
risk of elecuical shock. Contact a qualified
teclmician immediamly should your glass

cookmp become broken.
Never use the glass cookmp surface as a

cutting board.
Do not place or store imms that can melt or

catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it
is not being used.

Be carefl]l when placing spoons or other sorting
umnsils on glass cooktop surfi_cewhen it is in use.

They may become hot and could cause burns.
Clean the cookmp with caution. If a wet

sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
surfi_ce unit, be careflfl m avoid steam burns.

Some cleaners can produce noxious flmles if
applied m a hot surface.

NOTE:We recommend that you avoid wiping
any surface unit areas until they have cooled

and the indicator light has gone off: Sugar
spills are the exception to this. Please see the

Cleaningtheglass cooktopsection.

When the cooktop iscool, use only the

CERAMA BRYTE®Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner
and the CERAMA BRYI'E Ceramic Cooktop

Cleaning Pad m clean the cookmp.
To avoid possible damage to the cooking

surface, do not apply cleaning cream m
the glass surfime when it is hot.

Aider cleaning, use a dtT cloth or paper towel

m remove all cleaning cream residue.
Read and follow all insnucfions and warnings

on the cleaning cream labels.
Do not use plastic wrap to cover food. Plastic

may melt Ohm the surface and be vetT difficult
m remove.

WARNING!

OVEN

Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause

bums to hands, face and/or eyes.

Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container

could bu_t, causing an i_ju_ T.
Keep the oven vent unobstl_ucmd.

Keep the oven flee flom grease buildup.
Place tile oven rack in the desired position

while the oven is cool. If racks must be handled
when hot, do not let pot holder contact tile

heating elements.
When using cooking or roasting bags in the

oven, follow tile illanufacQliei"s directions.

Pulling out file rack to die stop-lock is a

convenience in lifting heax3,foods. It is Mso

a precaution against burns flom touching

installation of aluminum foil mW result in a

risk of elecuic shock or fire.

SELF-CLEANINGUPPEROVENANDLOWEROVEN

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.

Do not clean file door gasket. Tile door gasket
is essential for a good seal. Care should be
token not m _ub, damage or move tile gasket.

Good conductMty. Aluminum residues

sometimes appear as scratches on the

cooktop, but can be removed if cleaned
immediately. Because of its low melting

point, thin weight aluminum should not

Copper may leave residues which can
appear as scratches. The residues can

be removed, as long as the cooktop is
cleaned immediately. HoweveL do not let

these pots boil dry. Overheamd metal can
bond to _ass cookmps. An overheamd

copper bottom pot will leave a residue
that will permanently stain the cooktop

if not removed immediamly.

Usingtheprobe on the lower convectionoven.(o,somemodels)

Formany foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.

Thetemperature probe has a
skewer-fike probe at one end and
a plug at the other end that goes

into the outlet in the oven.

Use of probes other than the one
provided with this product may result in

damage to the probe or oven control.

Use the handles of the probe and plug

when inserting and removing them flom

the food and outlet.

AtYerpreparing die meat and placing

it on a trivet or a broiler pan grid, follow

Adjust the upper or lower oven thermostat--Do it yourself!

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.

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.
