Using The Oven; Before You Begin - GE Coli Top Owner's Manual

Using the oven.

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on.
On models with a door latch, do not lock the oven door with the latch during cooking. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.
Depending on your model, the oven
will have either 6 (shown) or 5 shelf
positions.

Before you begin...

To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired
position before you turn the oven on.
The shelves have stops, 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 until it stops.
On some models, the bake heating element is
under the oven floor. Do not place foods on
the oven bottom for cooking.
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.
How to Set the Oven for Baking or Roasting
Touch the BAKE pad.
Touch the number pads or the + or – pads
(depending on your model) to set the
desired temperature.
Touch the START pad.
To change the oven temperature during
BAKE cycle, touch the BAKE pad and
then the number pads or + or – pads
(depending on your model) to get the
new temperature.
Check food for doneness at minimum time
on recipe. Cook longer if necessary.
Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad when cooking
is complete.
CAUTION:
When you are using the shelf in
the lowest position (A), you will need to use caution
when pulling the shelf out. We recommend that you pull
the shelf out several inches and then, using two pot
holders, pull the shelf out by holding the sides of it. The
shelf is low and you could be burned if you place your
hand in the middle of the shelf and pull all the way out.
Be very careful not to burn your hand on the door when
using the shelf in the lowest position (A).
On models with an oven control knob, turn the
knob to the temperature you desire.
On some models, you must push the knob in
before turning.
Turn the knob to OFF when cooking is
complete.
