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.
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range must be
secured by a properly installed anti-tip bracket. See installation
instructions shipped with the bracket for complete details before
attempting to install.
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged properly,
carefully tip the range forward. The bracket should stop the
range within 4 inches. If it does not, the bracket must be
reinstalled. If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason,
always repeat this procedure to verify the range is properly
secured by the anti-tip bracket.
For free-standing or slide-in ranges, never completely remove
the leveling legs or the range will not be secured to the anti-tip
device properly.
If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with your purchase,
call 1.800.626.8774 to receive one at no cost (in Canada,
call 1.800.561.3344). For installation instructions of the bracket,

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
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 birth defects or other reproductive harm, and
requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Gas appliances can cause minor exposure to four of these substances, namely benzene, carbon
monoxide, formaldehyde and soot, caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of natural gas
or LP fuels. Properly adjusted burners, indicated by a bluish rather than a yellow flame, will minimize
incomplete combustion. Exposure to these substances 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:
I Use this appliance only for its intended
I 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.

I Be sure your appliance is properly installed
and grounded by a qualified technician in
accordance with the provided installation
instructions.
I Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the door, storage drawer, or cooktop.
They could damage the range and even tip
it over, causing severe personal injury.
I Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your range unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified
technician.
I Do not store flammable materials in an oven
or near the cooktop.
I Before performing any service, disconnect
the range power supply at the household
distribution panel by removing the fuse
or switching off the circuit breaker.
CAUTION:
Items of interest to children
should not be stored in cabinets above a
range or on the backsplash of a range—
children climbing on the range to reach items
could be seriously injured.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
I Locate the range out of kitchen traffic path
and out of drafty locations to prevent poor
air circulation.
I Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
range. Flammable material could be ignited
if brought in contact with flame or hot oven
surfaces and may cause severe burns.
I Be sure all packaging materials are
removed from the range before operating it
to prevent fire or smoke damage should the
packaging material ignite.
I Do not store flammable materials in an oven,
a range drawer or near a cooktop.
I Be sure your range is correctly adjusted by
a qualified service technician or installer for
the type of gas (natural or LP) that is to be
used. Your range can be converted for use
with either type of gas. See the Installation
of the range section.
I Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
I Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the range.
WARNING:
These adjustments
must be made by a qualified service
technician in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and all codes
and requirements of the authority having
jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious injury or property
damage. The qualified agency performing
this work assumes responsibility for the
conversion.
I Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner
by covering the pan completely with a
well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray.
Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
I Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
I After prolonged use of a range, high floor
temperatures may result and many floor
coverings will not withstand this kind of use.
Never install the range over vinyl tile or
linoleum that cannot withstand such type
of use. Never install it directly over interior
kitchen carpeting.
I Flame in the upper oven or lower oven drawer
can be smothered completely by closing the
oven door or drawer and turning the control to
off, or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical
or foam-type fire extinguisher.
I Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a range is hot or in operation. They
could be seriously burned.
I Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool
before touching them or leaving them where
children can reach them.
I Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the oven door, drawer or cooktop. They
could damage the range and even tip it over,
causing severe personal injury.
I Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion. Air openings
are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the
top and bottom of the oven door, and at the
bottom of the range under the lower oven
drawer or kick panel.
CAUTION:
Items of interest to
children should not be stored in cabinets
above a range or on the backsplash of a
range—children climbing on the range to
reach items could be seriously injured.
I Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can
lead to damage and improper operation of
the range.
I For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
I Large scratches or impacts to glass doors
can lead to broken or shattered glass.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
SURFACE BURNERS
Use proper pan size—avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations
of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can
be easily grasped and remain cool.
I Always use the LITE position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners
have ignited.
I Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do
flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
I Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed
over the burner grate to support the wok. This
ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage
the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may
cause the burner to work improperly. This may
cause a carbon monoxide level above that
allowed by current standards, resulting in
a health hazard.
I Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may
catch on fire.
I Adjust the top burner flame size so it does
not extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
Excessive flame is hazardous.
I Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders come near
open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot
holder.
I Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
over the sides of the pan.
I Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
I When using glass cookware, make sure it
is designed for top-of-range cooking.
I Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
I To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back
of the range without extending over adjacent
burners.
I Keep all plastics away from the surface
burners.
I To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are
at the OFF position and all grates are cool
before attempting to remove them.
I Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
I Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
I If range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface
burners and create a fire hazard.
I Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The
hot air from the vent may ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst.
I If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the range
and call a qualified service technician. Never
use an open flame to locate a leak.
I If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frying, stir together before heating or
as fats melt slowly.
I Always turn the surface burner controls off
before removing cookware.
I When disabling Gas/Control Lockout, make
sure the surface controls are set to the OFF
position. This will preclude gas flow when the
range is turned on
I Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
I Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the
pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.

LOWEROVENDRAWER
I The purpose of the warm setting of the lower
oven drawer is to hold hot cooked foods at
serving temperature. Always start with hot
food; cold food cannot be heated or cooked
using the warm setting of the lower oven
drawer.
I Do not touch the heating element or the
interior surface of the lower oven drawer.
These surfaces may be hot enough to burn.
REMEMBER: The inside surface of the lower
oven drawer may be hot when the drawer
is opened.
I Do not use the lower oven drawer to dry
newspapers. If overheated, they can catch
on fire.
I Use care when opening the lower oven
drawer. Open the drawer a crack and let
hot air or steam escape before removing
or replacing food. Hot air or steam which
escapes can cause burns to hands, face
and/or eyes.
I Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned
food or combustible materials in the drawer.
I Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in
or near your lower oven drawer.
I Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower
oven drawer. Foil is an excellent heat insulator
and will trap heat beneath it. This will upset
the performance of the drawer and it could
damage the interior finish.
I Do not warm food in the lower oven drawer
for more than two hours.
I Never place, use or self-clean the lower oven
drawer pan in the upper oven.

Before Lighting a Gas Burner
After Lighting a Gas Burner
I Make sure all burners are in place.
I Do not operate the burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the
grate. The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat.
I Make sure all grates on the range are
properly placed before using any burner.
I If your range has the Gas/Control Lockout
feature, make sure it is disabled before
attempting to light the surface burners.
I Be sure the burners and grates are cool
before you place your hand, a pot holder,
cleaning cloths or other materials on them.
How to Light a Gas Surface Burner
Make sure all the surface burners are placed
in their respective positions.
When one burner is turned to LITE, all
the burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner
while another burner is on. An electric shock
may result, which could cause you
to knock over hot cookware.
Push the control knob in and turn it to
the LITE position.
You will hear a little clicking noise—the sound
of the electric spark igniting the burner.
Turn the knob to adjust the flame size.
If the knob stays at LITE, it will continue
to click.
Push the control knob in and turn it to
the LITE position.

Your gas range cooktop has five sealed
gas burners. They offer convenience,
cleanability and flexibility to be used in
a wide range of cooking applications.
The dual flame extra large burner (right front)
is the maximum output burner. Like the other
four burners, it can be turned down from HI
to LO for a wide range of cooking applications;
however, this burner is designed to quickly
bring large amounts of liquid to a boil. It has
a special POWER BOIL™ setting designed to
be used with cookware 10 inches or larger
in diameter.
The smallest burner in the right rear position is
the simmer burner. This burner can be turned
down to LO for a very low simmer setting. It
provides precise cooking performance for
delicate foods such as sauces or foods that
require low heat for a long cooking time.
Extra large Dual flame

Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in an
aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with tight-
fitting lids when cooking with minimum
amounts of water.
Glass: There are two types of glass
cookware—those for oven use only and those
for top-of-range cooking (saucepans, coffee
and teapots). Glass conducts heat very
slowly.
Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used for
either surface or oven cooking. It conducts
heat very slowly and cools very slowly. Check
cookware manufacturer’s directions to be
sure it can be used on gas ranges.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets will
give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions,
the enamel of some cookware may melt.
Follow cookware manufacturer’s
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has poor
heating properties and is usually combined

Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed
gas burners. If you use the stove top grill
on the sealed gas burner, it will cause
incomplete combustion and can result
in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards.
This can be hazardous to your health.

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.
I Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop
may become hot if left too close to the vent.
I Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
I Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The
hot air from the vent may ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst.
Plastic items on the cooktop may melt
if left too close to the vent.
Vent appearance and location vary.
I Metal items will become very hot if they are
left on the cooktop, and could cause burns.

The word ON and 100° will be displayed.
As the oven heats up, the display will show
the changing temperature. When the oven
reaches the temperature you set, a tone
will sound.
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
when convection baking and for good
results when baking cakes, cookies,
pastry and breads.

4-Layer cakes
When baking four cake layers at a time,
use racks B and D. Place the lower pans
at the back of the rack and the upper
pans to the front of the rack shown so
that one pan is not directly above
another.
Aluminum Foil
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom
of the oven.
A smaller sheet of foil may be used to catch a
spillover by placing it on a lower rack several
inches below the food.
Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum
foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and
result in poor baking.
Oven Moisture
As your oven heats up, the temperature
change of the air in the oven may cause
water droplets to form on the door glass.
These droplets are harmless and will
evaporate as the oven continues to heat up.

Using the probe.
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness.
The temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.
Use of probes other than the one provided with
this product may result in damage to the probe.
Cable
Plug
Use the handles of the probe and plug when
inserting and removing them from the food
and outlet.
Probe
Handles
I To avoid damaging your probe, do not use
tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.
I Never leave your probe inside the oven
during a self-cleaning cycle.
I To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food
is completely defrosted before inserting.
The temperature probe has a skewer-like
probe at one end and a plug at the other
end that goes into the outlet in the oven.
I Do not store the probe in the oven.
I To prevent possible burns, do not unplug
the probe from the outlet until the oven
has cooled.
After preparing the meat and placing
it on a trivet or on a broiler pan grid,
follow these directions for proper probe
placement.
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into
the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in
ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center
of the lowest large muscle.
Insert the probe completely into the meat.
It should not touch the bone, fat or gristle.
Insert the probe into the center of dishes
such as meat loaf or casseroles.
Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the
inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg
of a whole turkey.

Using the convection oven.
GEAppliances.com
The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DONOTleave the door open for long periods of time
while using convection cooking.
To help you understand the difference
between convection bake and roast and
traditional bake and roast, here are some
general guidelines.
Roasts or poultry should be cooked on rack
position (A).
When you are convection roasting, it is
important that you use a broiler pan and grid
for best convection roasting results. The pan
is used to catch grease spills and the grid is
used to prevent grease spatters.
Convection Bake
I Preheat the oven. See the Using the Oven–
Preheating and Pan Placement section.
In a convection oven, a fan circulates
hot air over, under and around the food.
This circulating hot air is evenly
distributed throughout the oven cavity.
As a result, foods are evenly cooked
and browned—often in less time than
with regular heat.
I Place the rack in rack position (A).
I Ideal for foods cooked on multiple racks.
I Good for large quantities of baked foods.
I Good results with cookies, biscuits,
brownies, cupcakes, cream puffs, sweet
rolls, angel food cake and bread.
NOTE: To maximize cooking evenness,
the fan is designed to rotate in both
directions with a pause in between.
This is normal.
The convection fan circulates the heated
air evenly over and around the food.
Convection Roast
I Good for large tender cuts of meat,
uncovered.
The convection fan circulates the heated air
evenly over and around the food. Meat and
poultry are browned on all sides as if they
were cooked on a rotisserie. Heated air will
be circulated over, under and around the
food being roasted. The heated air seals in
juices quickly for a moist and tender product
while, at the same time, creating a rich
golden brown exterior.

Using the convection oven.
Cookware for Convection Cooking
Before using your convection oven, check
to see if your cookware leaves room for air
circulation in the oven. If you are baking with
several pans, leave space between them.
Also, be sure the pans do not touch each
other or the walls of the oven.
Metal and Glass
Any type of cookware will work in your
convection oven. However, metal pans heat
the fastest and are recommended for
convection baking.
I Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake
faster than shiny pans.
Paper and Plastic
Heat-resistant paper and plastic containers
that are recommended for use in regular
ovens can be used in convection ovens.
Plastic cookware that is heat-resistant to
temperatures of 400°F can also be used,
when oven is below 400°F.
I Glass or ceramic pans cook more slowly.
When baking cookies, you will get the best
results if you use a flat cookie sheet instead
of a pan with low sides.
For recipes like oven-baked chicken, use a
pan with low sides. Hot air cannot circulate
well around food in a pan with high sides.

NOTE: When convection baking, the oven
temperature will be 25˚F (14˚C) lower than
the set temperature. See Auto Recipe™
Conversion in this section for more
information. When convection roasting,
oven temperature will not auto convert.
Multi-Rack Baking
Because heated air is circulated evenly
throughout the oven, foods can be baked
with excellent results using multiple racks.
When baking larger foods on 3 racks, place
one rack in the 2nd (A) position, one on the
4th (C) position and the third rack in the 6th (E)
position.
Multi-rack baking may increase cook times
slightly for some foods but the overall result is When baking cookies, place the racks
time saved. Cookies, muffins, biscuits, and
other quick breads give very good results
with multi-rack baking.
in the 3rd (B), 4th (C) and 5th (D) positions.
When convection baking with only 1 rack,
follow the rack positions recommended
in the Using the Oven section.
To cook food on more than one rack in
convection bake, use CONVECTION BAKE
MULTI.

Adjust the upper oven thermostat—Do it yourself!
GEAppliances.com
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust
the thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your
oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be
retained in memory after a power failure.
To Adjust the Thermostat
Touch the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads
at the same time for 3 seconds until the
display shows SF.
When you have made the adjustment,
touch the START pad to go back to the
time of day display. Use your oven as
you would normally.
Touch the BAKE pad. A two digit number
shows in the display.
NOTE: The thermostat adjustment for Baking
will also affect Convection Baking or
Convection Roasting.
Touch BAKE once to decrease (-)
the oven temperature, or twice to
increase (+).
The oven temperature can be adjusted
up as much as 35°F or down as much
as 35°F. Touch the number pads the
same way you read them. For example,
to change the oven temperature 15°F,
touch 1 and 5.
The type of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat).
If you 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.
Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the
other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70%
vegetable oil.

Before a Clean Cycle
For the first self-clean cycle, we recommend
venting your kitchen with an open window
or using a ventilation fan or hood.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the oven door gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the
gasket to remain intact. If you notice it
becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
Remove the racks, any broiler pan,
broiler grid, probe, all cookware and
any aluminum foil from the oven.
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven
bottom.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.
The oven racks can be self-cleaned,
but they will darken, lose their luster
and become hard to slide.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is
in place and the oven light is off.
Soil on the front frame of the range and
outside the gasket on the door will need
to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)
Protecting
Cleaning Instructions:
Remove grates.
STAINLESSSTEEL has a reputation for
withstanding tough abuse for years. This is a
key reason why it is so popular with the food
service industry.
Wash using warm, soapy water:
Wet soft cloth or paper towel (avoid
using excessive water).
Wipe the surface in the direction of the
grain (following the steel lines).
Rinse and wring out a soft cloth or paper
towel and dry the range.
However, stainless steel appliances can have
surface imperfections, discolorations or
blemishes that consumers with a critical eye
notice and find unattractive in the home.
These discolorations or blemishes can be
caused by something as simple as leaving
fingerprint smudges on the stainless steel
surface overnight.
Apply a degreaser that does not contain
sodium hydroxide or Stainless Steel
Cleaner (follow instructions).
For stainless steel appliances where
blemishes are prone to show on the surface,
we recommend APPLYINGACOATOFCERAMA
BRYTE® Stainless Steel Cleaning Polish &
Conditioner (purchased separately—follow
instructions).
Apply Cerama Bryte® Stainless Steel
Brightener (follow instructions).
Repeatsteps2–4asmanytimesasneeded.
Put grates back in place.
Follow these instructions for any Stainless
Steel surface on your range.
This will help you to maintain the brightness and
appearance of your stainless steel appliance.
DO NOT USE the following products for
Cleaning

Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable, but it is heavy.
You may need help removing and replacing
the door.
I The area outside the gasket can
be cleaned with a soap-filled plastic
scouring pad.
Do not lift the door by the handle. Make sure
the oven is completely cool.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar
or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain
on the surface. They may cause a dull spot
even after cleaning.
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.
To clean the outside of the door:
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.
I Use soap and water to thoroughly clean
the top, sides and front of the oven door.
Rinse well. You may also use a glass
cleaner to clean the glass on the outside
of the door.
To replace the door, make 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
the hinges snap back against the oven frame,
pull them back out.
I Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing
acids may cause discoloration and should
be wiped up immediately. When the
surface is cool, clean and rinse.
The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper
air circulation.
To clean the inside of the door:
I Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing
powders or harsh abrasives on the
outside of the door.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—
it has an extremely low resistance
to abrasion.
I Do not allow excess water to run into
any holes or slots in the door.
If you notice the gasket becoming worn,
frayed or damaged in any way or if it has
become displaced on the door, you
should have it replaced.
I Because the area inside the gasket is
cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do
not need to clean this by hand. Any soap
left on the liner causes additional stains
when the oven is heated.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil
element. Any soil will burn off when the
elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake
element. Clean with warm soapy water.

LOCATION GUIDELINES
Do not locate the range where it may be subject to strong drafts. Any openings in the floor or
wall behind the range should be sealed. Make sure the openings around the base of the range
that supply fresh air for combustion and ventilation are not obstructed by carpeting or woodwork.
Your range, like many other household items,
is heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings
such as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. Use care
when moving the range on this type of flooring.
It is recommended that the following simple and
inexpensive instructions be followed to protect
your floor.
This will allow the range to be moved for cleaning
or servicing. Also, make sure your floor covering
will withstand 180°F. (See the Installation Safety
Instructions section.)
Make sure the wall coverings around your range
can withstand the heat generated (up to 200°F)
by the range. (See the Installation Safety Instructions
section.)
The range should be installed on a sheet of plywood
(or similar material). When the floor covering ends at
the front of the range, the area that the range will rest
on should be built up with plywood to the same level
or higher than the floor covering.
IMPORTANT!
Remove all tape and packaging. Make sure the burners are properly seated and level.
Take the accessory pack out of the oven.
Check to be sure that no range parts have come loose during shipping.

Provide Adequate Gas Supply
Your range is designed to operate at a pressure of 5 of water column on natural gas or,
if designed for LP gas (propane or butane), 10 of water column.
Make sure you are supplying your range
with the type of gas for which it is designed.
When checking for proper operation of the
regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least 1
greater than the operating (manifold) pressure
as given above.
This range is convertible for use on natural or
propane gas. If you decide to use this range on
LP gas, conversion must be made by a qualified
LP installer before attempting to operate the
range on that gas.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the range
manifold must remain in the supply line regardless of
whether natural or LP gas is being used.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural
gas supplied to the regulator must be between
5 and 13 of water column.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to
connect the range to the gas supply line should
have an I.D. of 1/2 and be 5 feet in length for ease
of installation. In Canada, flexible connectors must
be single wall metal connectors no longer than
6 feet in length.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between
10 and 13 of water column.

Connect the Range to the Gas Supply
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old range and leave it off
until the new hookup has been completed. Don’t forget to relight the pilot on other gas
appliances when you turn the gas back on.
Because hard piping restricts movement of the
range, the use of a CSA International-certified
flexible metal appliance connector is recommended
unless local codes require a hard-piped connection.
valve, taking care to back up the shut-off valve
to keep it from turning.
Connect flexible metal appliance connector
to the adapter on the range. Position range
to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
Never use an old connector when installing a
new range. If the hard piping method is used, you
must carefully align the pipe; the range cannot be
moved after the connection is made.
When all connections have been made, make
sure all range controls are in the off position
and turn on the main gas supply valve.
Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and
connections to check for leaks in the system.
To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on,
or wrap pipe thread tape with Teflon* around, all
male (external) pipe threads.
Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the
gas line in an easily accessed location outside
of the range. Make sure everyone operating
the range knows where and how to shut off
the gas supply to the range.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE A
FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
When using test pressures greater than 1/2 psig
to pressure test the gas supply system of the
residence, disconnect the range and individual
shut-off valve from the gas supply piping. When
using test pressures of 1/2 psig or less to test the
gas supply system, simply isolate the range from
the gas supply system by closing the individual
shut-off valve.
Install male 1/2 flare union adapter to
the 1/2 NPT internal thread elbow at inlet

Check Ignition of Surface Burners
Operation of all cooktop burners should be checked
after the range and gas supply lines have been
carefully checked for leaks.
Electric Ignition
Select a top burner knob and simultaneously
push in and turn to LITE position. You will hear
a clicking sound indicating proper operation of the
spark module. Once the air has been purged from
the supply lines, burners should light within
4 seconds. After burner lights, rotate knob out
of the LITE position. Try each burner in succession
until all burners have been checked.
Quality of Flames
The combustion quality of burner flames needs
to be determined visually.
(A) Yellow flames—
Call for service
(B) Yellow tips on
outer cones—
Normal for LP gas
(C) Soft blue
flames—Normal
for natural gas
If burner flames look like (A), call for service. Normal
burner flames should look like (B) or (C), depending
on the type of gas you use.
With LP gas, some yellow tipping on outer cones
is normal.
Level the Range
Install the oven racks in the oven and position
the range where it will be installed.
Remove the lower oven drawer. See the Care
and cleaning of the range section. The front

Installation of the range.
Anti-Tip Device Installation
To check if the bracket is installed and engaged
properly, remove the storage drawer or kick panel
and look underneath the range to see that the
leveling leg is engaged in the bracket. On models
without a storage drawer or kick panel, carefully
tip the range forward. The bracket should stop
the range within 4 inches. If it does not, the
bracket must be reinstalled. If the range is pulled
from the wall for any reason, always repeat this
procedure to verify the range is properly secured
by the anti-tip bracket.
For free-standing or slide-in ranges, never
completely remove the leveling legs or the range
will not be secured to the anti-tip device properly.
To reduce the risk of tipping the range, the range
must be secured by a properly installed anti-tip
bracket. See installation instructions shipped with
the bracket for complete details before attempting
to install.
If you did not receive an anti-tip bracket with
your purchase, call 1.800.626.8774 to receive
one at no cost (in Canada, call 1.800.561.3344).
For installation instructions of the bracket, visit
GEAppliances.com (in Canada, GEAppliances.ca).
