Using the oven. GEAppliancescom To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the desired position before you turn the oven on. Before you begin... The oven has 5 shelf positions. It also has a special low shelf position (R)for extra large items, such as a large turkey. The shelves have stop-locks, so that when placed correctly on the shelf supports (A through E),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. I -&CAUTION IWheynouare using a rack in the lowest position (R),you will need to use caution when pulling the rack out. We recommend that you pull the rack out several inches and then, using two pot holders, pull the rack out by holding the sides of it. The rack is low and you can be burned if you put your hand in the middle of the rack and pull all the way out. 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 (stoplocks)on the support, tilt up the front and push the shelf in. NOTE: The shelf is not designed to slide out at the special low shelf (R)position. Oven Control Your oven is controlled by a single OVEN CONTROLknob. It will normally take 30-90 seconds before the flame comes on. After the oven reaches the selected temperature, the oven burner cyclesoff completely, then on with a full flame-to maintain the selected temperature. Plastic items on the eooktop may melt if left too close to the vent. Vent appearance and location vary. Upper Oven Vent Your oven is vented through ducts at the rear of the range. Do not block these ducts when cooking in the oven-it is important that the flow of hot air from the oven and fresh air to the oven burner be uninterrupted. Avoid touching the vent openings or nearby surfaces during oven or broiler operation-they may become hot. Handles of pots and pans on the cooktop may become hot if left too close to the vent. Do not leave plastic or flammable items on the cooktop-they may melt or ignite if left too close to the vent. Do not leave closed containers on the cooktop. The pressure in closed containers may increase,which may cause them to burst. Metal items will become very hot if they are left on the cooktop, and could cause burns. Oven Light (on some models) Use the switch on the lower control panel to turn the light on or off.
