Oven; Self-Cleaning The Oven - GE Profile JGB905 Owner's Manual & Installation Instructions

OVEN

Stand away from the range when opening the door of a hot oven. The hot air and steam that escape can
cause burns to hands, face and eyes.
s
Do not use the oven for a storage area.
Items stored in the oven can ignite.
s
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
s
Place the oven shelves in the desired
position while the oven is cool.
s
Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching
hot surfaces of the door or oven walls. The
lowest position is not designed to slide.
s
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
s
Never use aluminum foil to line the oven
bottom. Improper use of foil could start
a fire and result in high carbon monoxide.
s
Do not use aluminum foil anywhere in the
oven except as described in this manual.
Misuse could result in a fire hazard or
damage to the range.
s
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.

SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN

s
Be sure to wipe off excess spillage before
self-cleaning operation.
s
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware,
probe and any aluminum foil.
s
Nickel oven shelves (on some models)
should be removed from the oven before
beginning the self-clean cycle.
s
Gray porcelain-coated oven shelves (on some
models) may be cleaned in the oven during
the self-clean cycle.
s
Clean only parts listed in this Owner's
Manual.
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
s
Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
s
Use only glass cookware that is
recommended for use in gas ovens.
s
Always remove the broiler pan from range as
soon as you finish broiling. Grease left in the
pan can catch fire if oven is used without
removing the grease from the broiler pan.
s
When broiling, if meat is too close to the
flame, the fat may ignite. Trim excess fat to
prevent excessive flare-ups.
s
Make sure the broiler pan is in place
correctly to reduce the possibility of
grease fires.
s
If you should have a grease fire in the broiler
pan, press the CLEAR/OFF pad, and keep
the oven door closed to contain fire until
it burns out.
s
For safety and proper cooking performance,
always bake and broil with the oven door
closed.
s
Do not clean the door gasket. The door
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub, damage or move
the gasket.
s
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions,
turn the oven off and disconnect the power
supply. Have it serviced by a qualified
technician.
s
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial
oven cleaner or oven liner of any kind
should be used in or around any part of
the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will
damage the inside of the oven when the
self-clean cycle is used.
