Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Care and Cleaning Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support Using the oven. GEAppliances.com To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on. Before you begin... The racks 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 rack out to the bump on the rack support. 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. The number of rack positions may vary by model. Cut slits in the foil just like the grid. How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting Press the Bake pad. On models with number pads, press them in order to set the desired temperature. On models with Temp + and - pads, press them to increase or decrease the set desired temperature. Press the Start pad. Check food for doneness at minimum time on recipe. Cook longer if necessary. Type of Food Rack Position Frozen pies (on cookie sheet) C or D Angel food cake B Bundt or pound cakes B Biscuits, muffins, brownies, cookies, cupcakes, layer cakes, pies C or D Casseroles C or D 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. 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 racks, stagger the pans so one is not directly above the other, and leave approximately 11⁄2″ between pans, from the front, back and sides of the wall. Aluminum Foil You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid. Aluminum foil may also be used to catch a spillover. 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. 7
