Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electric shock, serious injury or death. 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. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. 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 Freestanding Ranges: 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. On models without a storage drawer or kick panel, carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the range within 10.2 cm (4 inches). If it does not, the bracket must be reinstalled. 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 Slide-In Ranges: 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. For Drop-In Ranges: To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly, lower the oven door and gently apply medium force at the handle end until movement of the range is detected. Continue pressing until the anti-tip bracket is engaged and movement stops. A small amount of movement is acceptable at the back of the range top, but it should be stable and not tip once the anti-tip bracket is engaged. If it does not, the bracket must be reinstalled. If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase, call 1.800.561.3344 to receive one at no cost. For installation instructions of the bracket, visit www.GEAppliances.ca.

They should never be allowed to climb, sit or stand on any part of the appliance. ICAUTION: Do not store items of interest to children above a range or on the backguard of a range—children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured. I 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 surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders. I Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room. I Do not touch the surface units, 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 the surface units, areas nearby the surface units or any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include the cooktop, areas facing the cooktop, oven vent opening, surfaces near the opening and crevices around the oven door. I Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury. I Do not use aluminum foil to line the drip pans or anywhere in the oven, except as described in this manual. Misuse could result in damage to the range and shock or fire hazard. I Avoid scratching or impacting glass doors, cooktops or control panels. Doing so may lead to glass breakage. Do not cook on a product with broken glass. Shock, fire or cuts may occur. I Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an internal temperature of 71.1°C (160°F) and poultry to at least an internal temperature of 82.2°C (180°F). Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness. I Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids. I Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces, causing severe burns. I Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite. I Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter. www.GEAppliances.ca I Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. I If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. I If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns. 3 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE RANGE. WARNING IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREVENT THE FIRE FROM SPREADING: WARNING

Operating Instructions Safety Instructions IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING. I Never leave the surface units unattended at medium or high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire. I Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite, resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature. I To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice. I Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency. I Only 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. I To 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. I When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on. I Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off. I Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately. I Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry and rivets on clothing. I Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned off may cause them to ignite also. I Use CERAMA BRYTE® ceramic Cooktop Cleaner and CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad to clean the cooktop. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. NOTE: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section for detailed instructions. I Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label. I Do not immerse or soak the removable surface units. Do not put them in a dishwasher. Do not self- clean the surface units in an oven. Doing so may cause them to fail, presenting a burn or fire hazard. I To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric shock, always be certain that the controls for all surface units are at the OFF position and all coils are cool before attempting to lift or remove a coil surface unit. I Be sure the drip pans are not covered and are in place. Their absence during cooking could damage range parts and wiring. 4 COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING RADIANT COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (some models) WARNING COIL COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (some models) WARNING

Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support www.GEAppliances.ca I 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. I Keep the oven vent unobstructed. I Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the oven may ignite. I Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not let pot holder contact hot heating element in oven. I When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions. I Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces of the door and oven walls. I Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite. I Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Foil may trap or reflect heat, leading to a shock or fire hazard. The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow these instructions for safe operation. I Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove pans, shiny metal oven racks and other utensils from the oven. Only gray porcelain-coated oven racks may be left in the oven. Do not use self-clean to clean other parts, such as drip pans or bowls. I Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease may ignite, leading to smoke damage to your home. I If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician. I 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. I 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. I The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at serving temperature. Bacteria will grow in food while it is below 60°C (140°F). Do not put cold food in warming drawer. Do not heat food for more than 2 hours. Failure to follow these instructions may result in foodborne illness. I Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned food or combustible materials in the drawer. They may ignite. I Do not touch the heating element or the interior surface of the drawer. These surfaces may be hot enough to cause burns. I Use care when opening the drawer. Open the drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food. Hot air or steam that escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes. I Do not use aluminum foil to line the warming drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset the performance of the drawer and potentially cause a fire hazard. 5 OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (some models) WARNING WARMING DRAWER/LOWER OVEN DRAWER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (some models) WARNING

Never cook directly on the glass. Always use cookware. About the radiant surface units The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a smooth glass surface. Cooktop temperatures increase with the number of surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units turned on, surface temperatures are high. Always use caution when touching the cooktop. An indicator light will come on when the surface unit is turned on. The appropriate HOT SURFACE indicator light will glow when its corresponding radiant element is turned on and will remain on until the surface has cooled below 65.6°C (150°F). NOTE: Hot surface indicator light will: I Stay on even after the unit is turned off. I Glow brightly until the unit has cooled below 65.6°C (150°F). NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a short time. NOTE: On models with light-colored glass cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to change color when hot or cooling down. This is temporary and will disappear as the glass cools to room temperature. It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or surface on the glass cooktop when the surface is cool. Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely. I Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar. I Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration. I Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop. If they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage. I Do not use the surface as a cutting board. Always place the pan in the center of the surface unit you are cooking on. Do not slide cookware across the control or cooktop surface because it can scratch the glass. The glass is scratch-resistant, not scratchproof. Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the range unattended with the cooktop on medium or high settings. Keep flammable items away from the cooktop. Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, serious injury or death.

Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support Selecting types of cookware for glass cooktop models. (on non-induction models) www.GEAppliances.ca Stainless Steel: recommended Aluminum: heavy weight recommended Good conductivity. 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 be used. Copper Bottom: recommended Copper may leave residues which can appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed immediately. Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron: recommended if bottom of pan is coated Porcelain Enamel on Steel: not recommended Heating empty pans can cause permanent damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop. Glass-ceramic: not recommended Poor performance. Will scratch the surface. Stoneware: not recommended Poor performance. May scratch the surface. Cast Iron: not recommended—unless designed specifically for glass cooktops Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat. Will scratch the cooktop surface. Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge. Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended. The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops. See insert for cookware to use with induction cooktops. For Best Results I Place only dry pans on the surface elements. Do not place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids. I Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on glass surface elements. I We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface element to ensure proper contact. I Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers, deep-fat fryers, etc. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the correct size. I Avoid allowing foods to boil dry as some cookware may stick to the cooking surface, causing permanent damage to the cooktop. Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop. Do not use woks with support rings on the glass cooktop. Use flat-bottomed woks on the glass cooktop.

Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support 13 Preparing Quality Steak, Easy as 1, 2, 3: 1. Bring steak to room temperature. NOTE: Always use safe food practices when handling meat. 2. Season both sides to taste and coat with olive oil or similar. 3. Preheat the oven to BAKE at 218.3°C (425°F), with the oven rack in center position “C.” 4. Place your griddle on the designated area of the cooktop and then preheat the griddle to 204.4°C (400°F). CAUTION: The griddle will be VERY HOT! Use oven mitts. 5. Sear steak on each side for 2 minutes or until the desired browning is achieved. NOTE: There will be “smoke”; ensure there is proper ventilation. 6. Insert the meat probe that came with your range into the center of the steak, making sure that the tip of the probe is in the center of the steak. 7. Plug the probe into the outlet (located on the upper front side of the oven), slide the rack back into the oven and close the door. 8. Press PROBE on your control, enter the desired internal temp, and press START. 9. Allow steak to finish cooking in the oven. The range control will beep and turn off when the steak reaches the desired internal temperature. NOTES: I After searing, your steak could possibly already be at the desired temperature, depending on size, cut and desired doneness. I For thinner steaks it may not be possible to achieve a Rare or Medium Rare doneness. By first searing your meat with a very high heat, you are creating a browning reaction known as the Maillard Reaction. This reaction unlocks the fuller, more intense flavor from the meat, which occurs when cooking meat at a high heat.

Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Using the oven. To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn on the oven. Before you begin… The racks have stops, 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 rack out until it stops. On some models, the bake heating element is under the oven floor. Do not place foods on the oven bottom for cooking. To remove a rack, pull it toward you, tilt the front end up and pull it out. To replace, place the end of the rack (stop-locks) on the support, tilt up the front and push the rack in. When you are using a rack in the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution when pulling the rack out. We recommend that you pull the rack out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The rack is low and you could be burned if you place your hand in the middle of the rack and pull all the way out. Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when using the rack in the lowest position (A). The number of rack positions may vary by model. 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. CAUTION

Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn on the oven. How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting Touch the BAKE pad. Touch the number pads until the desired temperature is displayed. Touch the START pad. The oven will start automatically. The display will show PrE while preheating. When the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven control will beep several times and the display will show the oven temperature. NOTE: You will hear the convection fan (on some models) while the oven is preheating. The fan will stop after the oven is preheated and the display shows your set temperature. This is normal. To change the oven temperature during the BAKE cycle, touch the BAKE pad and then the number pads to get the new temperature. Check food for doneness at the minimum time on the recipe. Cook longer if necessary. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when baking is finished, and then remove the food from the oven. Preheating and Pan Placement To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn on the oven. Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheating is necessary for good results when baking cakes, cookies, pastries and breads. If baking four cake layers at the same time, place two layers on rack C and two layers on rack E. Stagger pans on the rack so one is not directly above the other. Baking results will be better if food is centered in the oven as much as possible. Angel food cake is the exception and should be placed on the bottom oven rack (position A). Follow package directions on prepackaged and frozen foods for pan placement. 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. Leave approximately 3.8 cm (11⁄2″) between pans and from the front, back and sides of oven wall. Do not place foods directly on the oven floor. www.GEAppliances.ca

When you have made the adjustment, touch the START pad to go back to the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally. 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 will 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 affects 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. + START 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 BROIL HI/LO BAKE BAKE + (on some models) (on some models)

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 baking can also be used for convection baking but should not be used at temperatures higher than the temperature recommended by the cookware manufacturer. Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to temperatures of 204.4°C (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. I Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans. I 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.

Slow Cook Guide Guideline Tips I The slow cook program uses a complex series of temperature cycling to obtain the best results. For this reason, it is recommended that the slow cook program be allowed to run without cancelling or restarting. Restarting the slow cook feature while it is in progress may result in overcooked meat. I For juicy and tender meat, choose cuts of meat such as chuck roast or a boneless blade roast. Leaner cuts of meat, such as top round, are drier and may need additional liquid. I Use only glass and ceramic dishes. Metal pots and pans tend to transfer the heat into the foods too quickly. I Match the quantity of food to the size pan. Fill the pan about 3/4 full for best results. Too large a pot allows the steam to escape, causing foods to dry out. I Always cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil. I A wide range of recipes may be used in the slow cook feature. For best results some adjustments may need to be made. For smaller sized recipes, begin checking at minimum time. For large recipes or when doubling recipes, foods may be cooked for longer periods of time. I When the slow cook feature completes, the oven will automatically switch to “warm” mode. If additional slow cook time is desired, this warm mode may be used to obtain the extra time. FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in food at temperatures below 60°C (140°F). • Always start with hot food. Do not use warm settings to heat cold food. • Do not warm food for more than 2 hours. Failure to follow these instructions may result in foodborne illness. 27 WARNING

Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when removing hot substances. Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks are removable using the CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner with the CERAMA BRYTE® Cleaning Pad for Ceramic Cooktops.
