TRIVECTION™ OVEN Read and follow the specific “Precautions to Avoid Possible Exposure to Excessive Microwave Energy” section in this manual. ■ Some products such as whole eggs and sealed containers—for example, closed jars—will explode and should not be heated in this oven. Such use of the oven could result in injury. ■ In defrost mode, remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic containers before placing bags in the oven. ■ Do not boil eggs in this oven.
ALL THESE THINGS ARE NORMAL WITH YOUR TRIVECTION™ OVEN ■ Steam or vapor escaping from around the door. ■ Dimming of the oven light and change in the blower sound may occur.

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. ■ 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. ■ Keep the oven vent unobstructed. ■ Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before starting the self-cleaning operation.
The GE Profile oven with Trivection™ technology is a microwave-assist wall oven designed to cook food up to five times faster than a traditional oven. This oven gives the user the flexibility to cook food in traditional cooking modes (bake or broil), convection modes (convection bake and convection roast) or in speedcook modes (speed bake and speed broil). This oven features easy-to-use controls that will guide you through oven operations. Bake Baking is cooking with heated air.

NOTE: A cooling fan will automatically turn on during all cooking modes. This fan turns on to cool internal parts. It may run for up to 1-1/2 hours after the oven is turned off.
Microwave Assisted In the Trivection oven, a microwave is used to assist cooking. The combination of microwave, convection fan and heating elements is unique for each food category. NOTE: The microwave will cycle on and off while cooking to best distribute energy to the food. The microwave turns off and the cook time stops counting down when the oven door is opened. NOTE: The convection fan may cycle on and off and change direction while cooking to best distribute hot air in the oven.
Other Speedcooking Tips. . . You must preheat your oven. Put the food in the oven after the preheat beep when the oven control displays “Put Food In Oven” and then press START. You must press the START key after placing the food in the oven to start the speedcook mode. All frozen foods should be speedcooked using the FROZENFOODS category.

www.GEAppliances.com To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on. 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. Cut slits in the foil just like the grid. Never entirely cover a rack with aluminum foil. This will disturb the heat circulation and result in poor baking.
On double oven models, you can use timed baking in one oven while using self-clean in the other; you can also use timed baking in both ovens at the same time. 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.
www.GEAppliances.com How to Set the Oven for Broiling Select HI for high broil or LO for low broil. LO is used to broil thicker cuts of meat without over-browning them. Select START. We recommend preheating for 5 minutes with the door closed whether you broil food with the door open or closed. Place the meat or fish on the broiler grid and pan. Follow suggested rack positions in the Broiling Guide.
Convection Fan In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over, under and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity. As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned—often in less time with convection heat. Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Using the convection modes. DO NOT leave the door open for long periods of time while using convection cooking or you may shorten the life of the convection heating element.
Roasting rack Post Grid ■ Good for large tender cuts of meat, uncovered. The convection fan circulates the heated air evenly over and around the food. Meat and poultry are browned on all sides as if they were cooked on a rotisserie. Using the roasting rack provided, heated air will be circulated over, under and around the food being roasted. The heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product while, at the same time, creating a rich golden brown exterior.
On double oven models, you can use timed baking or roasting in one oven while using self-clean in the other; you can also use timed baking or roasting in both ovens at the same time. You will hear a fan while cooking with these features. The convection fan will stop when the door is opened, but the heat will not turn off. 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.
How to Set a Delayed Start and Automatic Stop You can set the oven control to delay-start the oven, cook for a specific length of time and then turn off automatically.

Select FEATURES, then MORE, then PROOF and then START. The interior oven lights turn on and remain on during proofing.
Safety Instructions The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly. Before a Clean Cycle We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self-clean cycle. Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven. Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.
The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly. How to Delay the Start of Cleaning Select FEATURES. Select SELF CLEAN. Select upper or lower oven on double oven models. When goes off, you will be able to open the door. NOTE: On double oven models, you can set a delay clean in both ovens.

Clock The clock must be set to the correct time of day for the automatic oven timing functions to work properly.
Auto Recipe™ Conversion When using convection bake, the Auto Recipe™ Conversion feature automatically changes entered traditional baking temperatures to convection baking temperatures.

After setting this option, select HOME.
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the temperature yourself. Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.
