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.
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
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.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,
remove the storage drawer or kick panel and look
underneath the range to see that the leveling leg is engaged
in the 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.
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

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 birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural
gas or LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will
minimize incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances can be minimized by venting
with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood.
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.

installers or service technicians.
n Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations to prevent poor
air circulation.
n Be sure all packaging materials are removed
from the range before operating it to prevent
fire or smoke damage should the packaging
material ignite.
n Do not attempt to repair or replace any part
of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
service should be referred to a qualified
technician.
n Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by a
qualified service technician or installer for
the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be
used. Your range can be converted for use
with either type of gas. See the Installation
Instructions packed with the range.
n Plug your range into a 120-volt grounded
outlet only. Do not remove the round
grounding prong from the plug. If in doubt
about the grounding of the home electrical
system, it is your personal responsibility and
obligation to have an ungrounded outlet
replaced with a properly grounded, threeprong outlet in accordance with the National
Electrical Code. Do not use an extension cord
with this appliance.
WARNING: These adjustments
must be made by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and all codes
and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in serious injury
or property damage. The qualified agency
performing this work assumes
responsibility for the conversion.
n Keep the hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid grease
fires.
n Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the range.
n Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a range is hot or in operation. They
could be seriously burned.
Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance
from your range.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
GEAppliances.com
n Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance from your
range.
n Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from your
range.
n Do not clean the range with flammable or
volatile cleaning fluids.
n After prolonged use of a range, high floor
temperatures may result and many floor
coverings will not withstand this kind of use.
Never install the range over vinyl tile or
linoleum that cannot withstand such type of
use. Never install it directly over interior
kitchen carpeting.
n Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the oven door, storage drawer or
cooktop. They could damage the range and
even tip it over, causing severe personal
injury.
CAUTION: Items of interest to
children should not be stored in cabinets
above a range or on the backsplash of a
range—children climbing on the range to
reach items could be seriously injured.
n Do not store flammable materials in an
oven, a range storage drawer or near a
cooktop.
n Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
n Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or near
the range.
n Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick
up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner
by covering the pan completely with a wellfitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a
multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
n Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out
by covering it with baking soda or, if
available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
n Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door and
turning the control to off or by using a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
WARNING: NEVER use this
appliance as a space heater to heat or
warm the room. Doing so may result
in carbon monoxide poisoning and
overheating of the cooktop or oven.
n For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
n Large scratches or impacts to glass doors
can lead to broken or shattered glass.
n Do not clean the range when the appliance is
in use.
n Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance. Be
careful when reaching for items stored in
cabinets over the range. Flammable material
could be ignited if brought in contact with
flame or hot oven surfaces and may cause
severe burns.
n Let the burner grates and other surfaces
cool before touching them or leaving them
where children can reach them.
n Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air
openings are located through the rear and
front center of the cooktop, at the top and
bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom
of the range under the storage drawer or

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
SURFACE BURNERS
Use proper pan size—avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat bottoms large
enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough to contain the food
properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food, since heavy
spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily grasped and remain
cool.
n Always use the LITE position when igniting the
top burners and make sure the burners have
ignited.
n Never leave the surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
n Adjust the top burner flame size so it does not
extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
n 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.
n When using glass cookware, make sure it is
designed for top-of-range cooking.
n 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.
n Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
n Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
n 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.
n If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
frying, stir together before heating or as fats
melt slowly.
n Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible
to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking
point.
n Do not operate the burner without all burner
parts in place.
n Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling
the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
6
food is added.
n When preparing flaming foods under the hood,
turn the fan on.
n Do not use a wok on the cooking surface if the
wok has a round metal ring that is placed over
the burner grate to support the wok. This ring
acts as a heat 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 level above that
allowed by current standards, resulting in a
health hazard.
n Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan.
n Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a
deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
n Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
n Keep all plastics away from the surface
burners.
n To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are
at the OFF position and all grates are cool
before attempting to remove them.
n If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface
burners and create a fire hazard.
n If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified service technician. Never
use an open flame to locate a leak.
n Always turn the surface burner controls off
before removing cookware.
n Do not use aluminum foil to cover the grates or
line any part of the cooktop. Doing so may
result in carbon monoxide poisoning,
overheating of the cooktop surfaces, or a
potential fire hazard.
GEAppliances.com
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
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.
WARNING!
OVEN
Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can
cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
n Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure
could build up and the container could burst,
causing an injury.
n Keep the oven vents unobstructed.
n Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
n 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.
n When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven,
follow the manufacturer’s directions.
n 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.
n Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch on fire.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
n Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items
stored in an oven can ignite.
WARNING: NEVER cover
any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom
or cover an entire rack with materials such as
aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through
the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap
heat, causing a fire hazard.
n Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use.
n Make sure a broiler pan is in place correctly to
reduce the possibility of grease fires.
n If you should have a grease fire in a broiler pan,
press the CLEAR/OFF pad and keep the oven
door closed to contain fire until it burns out.
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.
n 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.
n Before self-cleaning the oven, remove shiny,
silver-colored oven racks (on some models)
and all other cookware.
n Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before starting
the self-cleaning operation.
n If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it
serviced by a qualified technician.
n Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Using the gas surface burners.
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
How to Light a Gas Surface Burner
Push the control knob in and turn
it to the LITE position.
Push the control knob in and turn it to the
LITE position.
You will hear a little clicking noise—the
sound of the electric spark igniting the
burner.
After the flame lights, turn the knob to
adjust the flame size. If the knob stays at
LITE, it will continue to click.
Sealed Gas Burners
The smaller burner (right rear position) will
give the best simmer results for delicate
foods, such as sauces or foods which need
to cook over low heat for a long time. It can
be turned down to a very low setting.
How to Select Flame Size
For safe handling of cookware, never let the
flames extend up the sides of the cookware.
Watch the flame, not the knob, as you
reduce heat. The flame size on a gas burner
should match the cookware you are using.
When one burner is turned to LITE, all the
burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner
while another burner is on. An electric shock
may result, which could cause you to knock
over hot cookware.
The largest burners are higher powered
than the others and will bring liquids to
a boil quicker.
Any flame larger than the bottom of the
cookware is wasted and only serves to heat
the handle.
In Case of Power Failure
In case of a power failure, you can light the
gas surface burners on your range with a
match. Hold a lit match to the burner, then
push in and turn the control knob to the
LITE position. Use extreme caution when
lighting burners this way.
Before Lighting a Gas Burner
n Make sure all grates on the range are in
place before using any burner.
Surface burners in use when an electrical
power failure occurs will continue to
operate normally.
After Lighting a Gas Burner
n Do not operate the burner for an
extended period of time without
cookware on the grate. The finish on the
grate may chip without cookware to
absorb the heat.
n Be sure the burners and grates are cool
before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other materials on
them.

Top-of-Range Cookware
GEAppliances.com
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an
aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tightfitting lids when cooking with minimum
amounts of water.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will
give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions, the
enamel of some cookware may melt.
Follow cookware manufacturer’s
recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass
cookware—those for oven use only and
those for top-of-range cooking (saucepans,
coffee and teapots). Glass conducts heat
very slowly.
Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed
gas burners. If you use the stove top grill on
the sealed gas burner, it will cause
incomplete combustion and can result in
exposure to carbon monoxide levels above
allowable current standards.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for
either surface or oven cooking. It conducts
heat very slowly and cools very slowly.
Check cookware manufacturer’s directions
to be sure it can be used on gas ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor
heating properties and is usually combined
with copper, aluminum or other metals for
improved heat distribution. Combination
metal skillets usually work satisfactorily if
they are used with medium heat as the
manufacturer recommends.
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
This can be hazardous to your health.
Wok This Way
We recommend that you use a 14-inch or
smaller flat-bottomed wok. They are
available at your local retail store. Make
sure the wok bottom sits flat on the grate.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.
Do not use a round-bottomed wok on a
support ring. Placing the ring over the
burner or grate may cause the burner to
work improperly, resulting in carbon
monoxide levels above allowable
standards. This could be dangerous to your
health.
