IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
,& WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire
or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life.
IMPORTANT SAFETYNOTICE
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.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including
the following:
Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner's
Manual.
Be sure the oven is securely installed
in a cabinet that isfirmly attached
to the house structure.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
iiiiiil
Do not attempt to repair or replace
any part of your oven unless it isspecifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
iiiiiil

Have the installer show you the location
of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for
easy reference.
Before performing any service, disconnect
the oven power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse
or switching off the circuit breaker.
Never leave the oven door open when
you are not watching the oven.
Always keep combustible wall covering,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from
your oven.
Always keep dish towels, dishcloths, pot

or any other part of the oven.
Large scratches or impacts to glass doors
can lead to broken or shattered glass.
Do not leave children alone-children should *:*
not be left alone or unattended in an area
where an appliance is in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.
Do not allow anyone to climb, sit, stand

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS
Never wear loose-fitting or hanging
garments while using the appliance. Be
careful when reaching for items stored in
cabinets over the oven. Flammable material
could be ignited if brought in contact with hot }
surfaces or heating elements and may
cause severe burns.
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 heating elements. Do not use u towel
or other bulky cloth.
For your safety, never use your appliance

Flame in the oven can be smothered
completely by closing the oven door
and turning the oven off or by using
a multi-purpose dry chemical
or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Do not touch 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 any
interior area of the oven; allow sufficient
time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include oven
vent openings, surfaces near the openings,
crevices around the oven door, the edges
of the window and metal trim parts above
the door.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the oven
and door may be hot when the door is
opened.

Adjust the upper or lower oven thermostat--Do it gourselfl
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for afew
weeks to become more familiar with it. If Fou still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust
the thermostat yourself.
Do not usethermometers,suchas thosefound in grocery stores,to checkthe temperature settingof Four oven.
Thesethermometers may vary 20-40 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it will not affect broiling or self-cleaning
temperatures. Theadjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Host recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or ma(garine (80% fat).
If Fou 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.
Federalstandards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Lowfat spreads,on the other
hand, contain lessfat and more water.The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked
goods. Forbest resultswith your old favorite recipes,use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70%
vegetable oil.

Convection Fan Operation
In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air
over, under and around the food.
Thiscirculatinghot air isevenly distributed
throughout the oven.As a result,foods are
even!gcookedand browned-often in less
time with convection heat.
NOTE:To maximize cooking evenness,
the fan isdesignedto rotate in both
directions,with a pausein between.
Thisisnormal.
Theconvection fan shuts offwhen
the oven door isopened.DONOTleave
the door open for long periodsof time
while using convection cooking or you
may shorten the lifeof the convection
heating element.
Introduction
Theconvection ovencomes with two
convection baking modes:
Multi and 1 Rack:
MULTI--for convection cooking on more
than one rack.Touch the CONVECTION
BAKEpad and then the 2 pad.
Seethe Multi-RackConvection
Bakingsectionbelow.
1RACK--forconvection cooking on one
rack only. Touch the CONVECTIONBAKE
pad and then the 1pad.Seethe !Rack
ConvectionBakingsection below.
Multi-rack position.
Multi-Rack Convection Baking
Because heated air iscirculated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked
with excellent resultsusing multiple racks.
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times
slightly for some foods but the overall result
istime saved.Cookies,muffins, biscuitsand
other quickbreadsgive very good results
with multi-rack baking.
Tocook food on more than one rack in
convection bake, useCONVECTIONBAKE
MULTI.
Formulti-rack baking, place the flat rack
in the highest (C)position and the offset
rack in the middle (B)position.

Grid
oven.
Convection Roast
Good for large tender cutsof meat,
uncovered.
Theconvection fan circulates
the heated air evenly over and around
the food. Meat and poultry are browned
on all sidesas ifthey were cooked on a
rotisserie.The heated air seals injuices
quickly for a moist and tender product
while, at the same time, creating a rich
golden brown exterior.
When you are convection roasting it is
important that you usea broiler pan and
grid for best convection roasting results.
Thepan isusedto catch greasespills

Cookware for Convection Cooking
Beforeusingyour convection oven,check
to seeif your cookware leavesroom for air
circulation inthe oven.If you are baking
with severalpans,leavespace between
them.Also,be surethe pansdo not touch
each other or the walls of the oven.
Paper end Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers
that are recommended for use in regular
baking can also be usedfor convection
baking, but should not be usedat
temperatures higher than the temperature
recommended by the cookware
manufacturer. Plasticcookware
that is heat-resistant to temperatures
of 400°Fcan also be used.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware willwork in your
convection oven. However,metal pans
heat the fastest and are recommended
for convection baking.
Darkenedor matte-finished panswi!!
bake faster than shiny pans.
Glassor ceramicpans cook more slowly.
Forrecipes likeoven-baked chicken,
usea pan with low sides.Hot air
cannot circulate well around food
in a pan with high sides.

Using the timed features for convection cooking. GEApp,onces.com
You will hear a fan while cooking with these features. The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat
will not turn off.
NOTE: Foods that spoil easily-such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork-should not be allowed
to sit for more than 1hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
Be sure that the oven light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth.
