Shelves - GE JGBP35 Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

Using the oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
The oven has 5 shelf positions.
It also has a special low shelf
position (R) for roasting extra large
items, such as a large turkey.
Plastic items on the cooktop may
melt if left too close to the vent.

Before you begin...
The shelves 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 shelf out to the bump on the shelf
support.
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.
Power Outage for Electric Ignition Models
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.
Oven Light
Use the switch on the lower control panel to
turn the light on or off.
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.
Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may
become hot if left too close to the vent.
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop—they
may melt if left too close to the vent.
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.
Metal items will become very hot if they are left
on the cooktop, and could cause burns.
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.
