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.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.
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.
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.
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 1
1 ⁄
2
″ between pans, from
the front, back and sides of the wall.
