Before You Begin - GE JTP95 Owner's Manual

Using the lower oven.
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
The lower oven has 7 shelf positions.
Cut slits in the foil just like the grid.

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.
How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Press the BAKE pad.
Press the number pads to set the
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.
Preheating and Pan Placement
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it.
Preheating is necessary for good results
when baking cakes, cookies, pastry and
breads.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature.
The control will beep when the oven is preheated
and the display will show your set temperature.
This may take approximately 10 minutes.
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.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat
and meat juices from draining into the
broiler pan. The juices could become
hot enough to catch on fire. If you
do not cut the slits, you are essentially
frying, not broiling.

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.
Type of Food
Frozen pies (on cookie sheet)
Angel food cake,
bundt or pound cakes
Biscuits, muffins, brownies,
cookies, cupcakes, layer
cakes, pies
Casseroles
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.
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 shelves, stagger the pans so one
is not directly above the other, and leave
approximately 1 ⁄ between pans, from
1
2
the front, back and sides of the wall.
Do not use aluminum foil on the bottom of
the oven.
Never entirely cover a shelf 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
shelf several inches below the food.
