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 covering, curtains or drapes a safe distance from your oven.
■ Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, 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.

WARNING!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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.
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.

■ 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.
■ 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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

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 the probe and 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.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting

1 Press the Bake pad.
2 Press the number 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.

Rack Position
Type of Food 27" Oven 30" Oven

Frozen pies B or C C or D(on cookie sheet)
Angel food cake	A	A or B
Bundt or pound cakes	A	A or B
Biscuits, muffins,brownies, cookies,cupcakes, layercakes, pies	B or C C or D
Casseroles	B or C C or D

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.

To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature. The control will beep when the oven is preheated and the display will show your set temperature. This may take approximately 10 minutes.

Preheating and Pan Placement

Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and breads.

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 racks, 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 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 probe.

For many 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.

Illustration of a meat being cut with a tool, no text or symbols present

The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at one end and a plug at the other end that goes into the outlet in the oven.

NOTE: Double oven models have a probe in the upper oven only.

Use of probes other than the one provided with this product may result in damage to the probe.

Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the meat and outlet.

To avoid damaging your probe, do not use tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.
To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is completely defrosted before inserting.

Plug Cable Handles Probe

To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe from the outlet until the oven has cooled.
■ Never leave your probe inside the oven during a self-cleaning cycle.
Do not store the probe in the oven.

Three hand-drawn illustrations of food items: a rectangular plate with a lid, a flat plate with a dumpling, and a roasted chicken on a tray (no text or symbols)

After preparing the meat and placing it on a trivet or on a broiler pan grid, follow these directions for proper probe placement.

7 Lay the probe on the outside of the meat along the top or side and mark with your finger where the edge of the meat comes to on the probe. The point should rest in the center of the thickest meaty part of the roast.
2 Insert the probe completely into the meat, up to the handle. It should not touch bone, fat or gristle.

For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.

Insert the probe into the center of dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles. When cooking fish, insert the probe from just above the gill into the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.

Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg of a whole turkey.

Using the proofing and warming features. GEAppliances.com

The proofing feature maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast-leavened products. (Available in the upper oven only.)

PROOF KITCHEN TIMER ON/OFF CLEAR OFF

How to Set the Oven for Proofing

Place the covered dough in the oven on rack B or C.

NOTE: For best results, cover the dough with a cloth or with greased plastic wrap (the plastic may need to be anchored underneath the container so the oven fan will not blow it off).

2 Press the Proof pad twice. The display will read PrF (proof).

The oven interior light turns on and remains on during proofing.

The proofing feature automatically provides the optimum temperature for the proofing process, and therefore does not have a temperature adjustment.

3 Set the Kitchen Timer for the minimum proof time.

4 When proofing is finished, press the Clear/Off pad.

To avoid lowering the oven temperature and lengthening proofing time, do not open the oven door unnecessarily.
- Check bread products early to avoid over-proofing.

NOTE:

Do not use the proofing mode for warming food or keeping food hot. The proofing oven temperature is not hot enough to hold foods at safe temperatures. Use the Warm feature to keep hot food warm.
Proofing will not operate when oven is above 125°F. "HOT" will show in the display.

How to Set the Oven for Warming

The warm feature keeps cooked foods warm for up to 3 hours after a timed function is finished, or warm can be activated to keep hot, cooked foods warm. This feature is not designed to reheat cold food.

To use this feature, press the Warm pad once and then the Start pad.

To activate this feature for use after Timed Baking or Roasting, press the Warm pad while programming the oven and before pressing Start.

To Crisp Stale Items

■ Place food in low-sided dishes or pans.
For best results, place the food items in a single layer. Do not stack.
Leave them uncovered.
- Check crispness after 20–30 minutes. Add time as needed.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

Food should be kept hot in its cooking container or transferred to a heat-safe serving dish.
For moist foods, cover them with an oven-safe lid or aluminum foil.
Fried or crisp foods do not need to be covered, but can become too dry if warmed for too long.
■ Repeated opening of the door allows the hot air to escape and the food to cool.
- Allow extra time for the temperature inside the oven to stabilize after adding items.
■ With large loads it may be necessary to cover some of the cooked food items.
■ Remove serving spoons, etc., before placing containers in the oven.
- Do not use plastic containers, lids or plastic wrap.

CAUTION: Plastic containers, lids or plastic wrap will melt if placed in the oven. Melted plastic may not be removable and is not covered under your warranty.

Using the convection oven.

Convection Bake

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.

Multi-rack position

Multi-Rack Convection Baking

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 second (B) 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.

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.

Grid Broiler pan

Convection Roast

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.

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.

8 When the internal temperature of the meat reaches the number you have set, the probe and the oven turn off and the oven control signals. To stop the signal, press the Clear/Off pad. Use hot pads to remove the probe from the food. Do not use tongs to pull on it—they might damage it.

CAUTION: To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe from the oven outlet until the oven has cooled. Do not store the probe in the oven.

NOTE:

If the probe is removed from the food before the final temperature is reached, a tone will sound and the display will flash until the probe is removed from the oven.
You will hear a fan while cooking with this feature. The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off.
You can use the timer even though you cannot use timed oven operations.
On double oven models, you will not be able to use the probe in the upper oven during timed oven operations. This is because, with the probe, you are cooking by temperature rather than time.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says "Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F means some food poisoning organisms may survive." (Source: Safe Food Book. Your Kitchen Guide. USDA Rev. June 1985.)

Using the timed features for convection cooking. GEAppliances.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.

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!

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.

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.

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, probe, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

The oven racks may remain in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle without being damaged.

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

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.

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.

3½" Maximum length Socket Bulb Tab Glass cover

Oven Light Bulb

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.

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.

Cleaning the Oven Door

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 or plastic scouring 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.

Removal position

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 (see illustration).
5 Lift door up and out until the hinge arm is clear of the slot.

To replace the door:

1 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.

Hinge arm Hinge lock Push hinge locks up to lock

5 Close the oven door.

Probe

The temperature probe may be cleaned with soap and water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the temperature probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn spots with a soap-filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.

Do not immerse the temperature probe in water.
Do not store the temperature probe in the oven.

Care and cleaning of the oven.

Oven Racks

All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the racks with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

The oven racks may remain in the oven during self-cleaning cycle without being damaged.

If the racks become hard to slide, wipe their side edges with a light coating of vegetable oil after cleaning them by hand or in the oven. This will help maintain the ease of sliding the racks in and out of the oven.

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. When cleaning, the control panel should be at room temperature and not in direct sunlight.

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.

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.
