COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY… Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F and poultry to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS n Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch hot surface units or heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
WARNING! RADIANT SURFACE UNITS Use proper pan size–select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency. Operating Instructions Safety Instructions IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
RADIANT SURFACE UNITS n Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off. n Large scratches or impacts to glass doors or cooktops can lead to broken or shattered glass. n When the cooktop is cool, use only the recommended cleaning cream to clean the cooktop. n To avoid possible damage to the cooking surface, do not apply cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot. n Never use the glass cooktop surface as a cutting board.
WARNING! LOWER OVEN DRAWER n 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. n Do not use the lower oven drawer to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch on fire. Operating Instructions Safety Instructions IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
UPPER 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. n When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions. n Keep the oven free from grease buildup. n Do not use your oven to dry newspapers. If overheated, they can catch fire. n Place the oven racks in the desired position while the oven is cool.
Your non-stick coated griddle provides an extra-large cooking surface for meats, pancakes or other food usually prepared in a frying pan or skillet.

geappliances.ca NOTE: Foods that spoil easily—such as milk, eggs, fish, stuffings, poultry and pork—should not be allowed to sit for more than 1 hour before or after cooking. Room temperature promotes the growth of harmful bacteria. Be sure that the oven light is off because heat from the bulb will speed harmful bacteria growth. How to Set an Immediate Start and Automatic Stop Touch the BAKE pad. Using the number pads, enter the desired temperature. Touch the COOK TIME pad.
Safety Instructions 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. Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and removing them from the food and outlet. n To avoid damaging your probe, do not use tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.
geappliances.ca The convection oven fan shuts off when the oven door is opened. DO NOT leave 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. Convection Bake When you are convection roasting, it is important that you use a broiler pan and grid for best convection roasting results.
Cookware for Convection Cooking Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Using the convection oven. Metal and Glass Paper and Plastic n Darkened or matte-finished pans will bake faster than shiny pans. Care and Cleaning 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.
How to Set the Upper Oven for Convection Roasting when Using the Probe For best results when roasting large turkeys and roasts, we recommend using the probe included in the convection oven. The display will flash PROBE and the oven control will signal if the probe is inserted into the outlet, and you have not set a probe temperature and touched the START pad. After the internal temperature of the food reaches 100°F, the changing internal temperature will be shown in the display.

Oven Control Panel Lock out the touch pads before cleaning. See the Range Lockout information in the Special features of your oven control section in this manual.
Oven Racks and Drawer Racks Clean the racks with an abrasive cleanser. The oven racks may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, the racks will darken in color, lose their luster and become hard to slide if cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle. To make the racks slide more easily, apply a small amount of vegetable oil or cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven racks with the paper towel. CAUTION: Before replacing your Wire cover holder.
Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Normal Daily Use Cleaning Clean your cooktop after each spill. Use CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support ONLY use CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of CERAMA BRYTE® Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner directly to the cooktop.
Metal Marks and Scratches If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop. This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent. WARNING: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop. Cooktop Seal To clean the cooktop seal around the edges of the glass, lay a wet cloth on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean with nonabrasive cleaners.
