GE JKP45WP - Manual (Page 17)

Proper care and cleaning are
important so your oven will give
you efficient and satisfactory
service. Follow these directions
carefully in caring for your oven
to assure safe and proper
maintenance.
Oven Shelves
Oven shelves may be cleaned with
a mild abrasive cleanser following
manufacturer’s directions. After
cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a
clean cloth.
To remove heavy, burned-on soil,
soapy metal pads may be used
following manufacturer’s
directions. After scrubbing, wash
with soapy water, rinse and dry.
Oven shelves may be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven. Note:
Shelves will discolor during the
self-cleaning cycle.
Broiler Pan & Rack
After broiling, remove the broiler
pan from the oven. Remove the
rack from the pan. Carefully pour
out the grease in the pan into a
proper container. Wash and rinse
the pan and rack in hot, soapy
water.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the
rack while hot with detergent and
cover with wet paper towels or a
dish cloth. That way, burned-on
foods will soak loose while the
meal is being served.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan
and rack in the oven. Do not clean
in self-cleaning oven.
Care and Cleaning
Oven Light Bulb
The light bulb is located on the
back wall of the oven. Before
replacing the bulb, disconnect
electric power to the oven at the
main fuse or circuit breaker panel.
Let the bulb cool completely
before removinj: it. Do not touch a
hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you
do, the bulb will break.
Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven lamp (bulb) is covered
with a removable glass cover
which is held in place with a bail­
shaped wire. Remove oven door, if
desired, to reach cover easily.
To remove:
• Hold hand under cover so it
doesn’t fall when released. With
fingers of same hand, firmly push
back wire bail until it clears cover.
Lift off cover. DO NOT REMOVE
ANY SCREWS TO REMOVE
COVER.
• Replace bulb with 40-watt home
appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
• Place it into groove of lamp
receptacle. Pull wire bail forward
to center of cover until it snaps
into place. When in place, wire
holds cover firmly. Be certain
wire bail is in depression in center
of cover.
• Connect electric power to oven.
The oven door is removable to
make the interior more accessible.
To remove the door, open it a few
inches to the special stop position
that will hold the door open. Grasp
firmly on each side and lift the
door straight up and off the hinges.
Note: Be careful not to place hands
between the hinge and the oven
door frame as the hinge could snap
back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, malce sure
the hinges are in the special stop
position. Position the slots in the
bottom of the door squarely over
the hinges. Then lower the door
slowly and evenly over both
hinges at the same time. If hinges
snap back against the oven frame,
pull them back out.
