Using the upper oven.
ge.com
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
Before you begin…
The shelves have stop-locks, so that when
placed correctly on the shelf supports (A
through E), 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: The shelf is not designed to slide out at the
special low shelf (R) position.
The oven has 5 shelf positions.
It also has a special low shelf
position (R) for extra large items,
such as a large turkey.
Power Outage
CAUTION: Do not make any attempt to operate the
electric ignition oven during an electrical power
failure.
The oven or broiler cannot be lit during a
power failure. Gas will not flow unless the
glow bar is hot.
If the oven is in use when a power failure
occurs, the oven burner shuts off and
cannot be re-lit until power is restored. This
is because the flow of gas is automatically
stopped and will not resume when power is
restored until the glow bar has reached
operating temperature.
Upper Oven Light
Touch the OVEN LIGHT pad on the upper
control panel to turn the light on or off.
On some models, the OVEN LIGHT switch is
on the lower front control panel.
Upper Oven Vent
Your oven is vented through ducts at the
rear of the range. Do not block these ducts
when cooking in the oven—it is important
that the flow of hot air from the oven and
fresh air to the oven burner be
uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent
openings or nearby surfaces during oven or
broiler operation—they may become hot. ■ Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may
become hot if left too close to the vent.
■
Do not leave plastic or flammable items on the
cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left too close
to the vent.
■
Do not leave closed containers on the cooktop.
The pressure in closed containers may increase,
which may cause them to burst.
■ Metal items will become very hot if they are left
on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location vary.
