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.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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.

⚠ WARNING! SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• 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 multi-purpose 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 shelf in the desired position while the oven is cool. If shelves 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

▲WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Pulling out the shelf 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. Improper installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

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.

SELF-CLEANING OVEN

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 shiny, silver-colored oven shelves (on some models) and all 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.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Before you begin...

The shelves 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 shelf out to the bump on the shelf support.

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

To replace, place the end of the shelf (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the shelf in.

NOTE: 30" ovens (shown) have 6 shelf positions. 27" ovens have 4 shelf positions.

How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting

1 Press the BAKE pad.
2 Press the TEMP + or - pads to set the desired temperature.
3 Press the START pad.
4 Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
5 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.

Angel food cake	A	B
Bundt or pound cakes	B	B
Biscuits, muffins,brownies, cookies,cupcakes, layercakes, pies	B or C C or D
Casseroles	B or C C or D

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.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

For ovens without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10 minutes.

Baking results will be better if baking pans are centered in the oven as much as possible. Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the oven. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 1½" between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall.

Aluminum Foil

Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of the oven.

Never entirely cover a shelf 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 shelf several inches below the food.

Using the oven.

If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks may be broiled by preheating the broiler and positioning the oven shelf one position higher.

How to Set the Oven for Broiling

Leave the door open to the broil stop position. The door stays open by itself, yet the proper temperature is maintained in the oven.

NOTE: Food can be broiled with the door closed but it may not brown as well because the oven heating element will cycle on and off.

Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid in a broiler pan designed for broiling.

2 Follow suggested shelf positions in the Broiling Guide.

The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times. This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.

3 Press the BROIL HI/LO pad once for HI Broil. To change to LO Broil, press the BROIL HI/LO pad again.

4 Press the START pad.

5 When broiling is finished, press the CLEAR/OFF pad.

NOTE: On some models, the lower oven is controlled with a knob. To set the oven for broiling, turn the knob to BROIL. Turn the knob to OFF when broiling is complete.

Using the timed baking and roasting features. (on some models)

On models with touch pad controls for both ovens, you can use timed baking in one oven while using self-clean in the other; you can also use timed baking in both ovens at the same time.

NOTE: Foods that spoil easily—such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork—should not be allowed to sit for more than 1 hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure that the oven light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.

Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

ge.com

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 or self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

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.

1 Pull off the OVEN knob.

2 Loosen both screws on back of the knob.

3 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.

4 Tighten the screws.

5 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.

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

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 broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves (on some models) can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their huster 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 touch 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 touch 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.

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 shelves become hard to slide, wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil.

Care and cleaning of the oven.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape

Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to

remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Control Panel

It's a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panel—they will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.

Control Knob (on some models)

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.

Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions and pull them straight off the stems for cleaning.

The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they may also be washed with soap and water. Make sure the inside of the knobs are dry before replacing.

Replace the knobs in the OFF position to ensure proper placement.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The door is very heavy. Be careful when removing and lifting the door.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door:

1 Fully open the door.
2 Pull the hinge locks down toward the door frame, to the unlocked position. A tool, such as a small flat-blade screwdriver, may be required.
3 Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
4 Close door to the door removal position, which is halfway between the broil stop position and fully closed.
5 Lift door up and out until the hinge arm is clear of the slot.

To replace the door:

Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.

2 With the door at the same angle as the removal position, seat the indentation of the hinge arm into the bottom edge of the hinge slot. The notch in the hinge arm must be fully seated into the bottom of the slot.
3 Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the indentation is not seated correctly in the bottom edge of the slot.
4 Push the hinge locks up against the front frame of the oven cavity, to the locked position.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket—it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Door (on self-clean ovens)

To clean the inside of the door:

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand.
The area outside the gasket and the door liner can be cleaned with a soap-filled scouring or plastic pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass

on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

If any stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a soft abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.
■ Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.
- Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

Door (on models with a knob for the lower oven)

To clean the inside of the door:

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.
■ Clean the inside of the oven window with a mild non-scratching cleaner and a damp cloth.

To clean the outside of the door:

■ Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the

oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

■ Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.
- Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Oven Shelves

Clean the oven shelves with an abrasive cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

NOTE: The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves (on some models) may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, the shelves will darken in color, lose their luster and become hard to slide if cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle.

To make the shelves slide more easily, apply a small amount of vegetable oil or cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven shelves with the paper towel.

Care and cleaning of the oven.

Socket 3½" Maximum length Bulb Tab Glass cover

Oven Light Bulb (on some models)

NOTE: The glass cover (on some models) should be removed only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.

Before replacing the bulb, disconnect electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Let the bulb cool completely before removing it. For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you do, the bulb will break.

To remove:

Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves of the socket. Remove the bulb.

To replace:

Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb. Place the tabs of the glass cover into the grooves of the socket. Turn the glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn.

NOTE:

A 40-watt appliance bulb is smaller than a standard 40-watt household bulb.
■ Install and tighten the cover clockwise.
■Reconnect electrical power to the oven.
For improved lighting inside the oven, clean the glass cover frequently using a wet cloth. This should be done when the oven is completely cool.

Receptacle Socket Bulb Tab Glass cover

Oven Light Bulbs (on some models)

NOTE: The glass cover (on some models) should be removed only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.

CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel.

Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool completely.

For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb with bare hands or a damp cloth.

To remove:

1 Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves of the socket.
2 Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb by pulling it straight out.

To replace:

1 Use a new 130-volt Halogen bulb, not to exceed 50 watts.
2 Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb from its packaging. Do not touch the bulb with bare fingers.

Receptacle Use gloves or cloth

3 Push the bulb straight into the receptacle all the way.
4 Place the tabs of the glass cover into the grooves of the socket. Turn the glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn.

For improved lighting inside the oven, clean the glass cover frequently using a wet cloth. This should be done when the oven is completely cool.

5 Reconnect electrical power to the oven.

Non-Self-Clean Oven Interior (on some models)

With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the inside of the oven—top, bottom, sides, back and inside of the door—will stay new-looking for years.

Let the oven cool before cleaning. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the oven.

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used.

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery container in a cold oven overnight.

The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.

If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.

Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls and switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.

Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensor—it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor as a change in its position could affect how the oven bakes.

Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Painted Surfaces

Clean with soap and water or a vinegar and water solution.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.

Glass Surfaces

To clean the outside glass finish, use a glass cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.

Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down inside the oven door while cleaning.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)

Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.

To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.
