Aluminum Foil And Oven Liners
Cleaning the Oven
Follow these general recommendations for better results. The modes listed below are not available in all ovens.
For a complete list of modes and a cooking guide with recommended rack positions, see the full owner’s
manual at www.GEAppliances.ca.
NOTE:
Remove unused racks when using the oven for faster preheat, improved efficiency and optimal performance.
Bake
:
Use this mode for general baking on a single rack.
Place food in approximately the center of the oven.
Convection Bake
:
Use this mode for baking
on multiple racks. Your oven is equipped with Auto
Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to adjust the
temperature when using this mode.
Convection Roast
:
Use this mode for roasting
meats or vegetables. Auto Recipe Conversion is not
applied in this mode.
Broil
:
Use this mode for searing foods. Always broil with
the door closed. For better searing or browning, place food
closer to the broil heater.
Oven Probe
:
Use the probe to bake foods to a precise
temperature. For details on proper use see the full owner's
manual.
Additional Modes
:
Your oven may have additional
specialized cooking modes. Press
Options
to explore and
see full owner’s manual for details (on some models).
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more
foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2” from oven walls
to prevent poor heat circulation. Never put foil on the oven bottom/floor or lower drawer. Foil can melt and permanently
damage the drawer bottom.
Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range. For surfaces not
listed here, see the full owner's manual at www.GEAppliances.ca.
Manual Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleaners, strong liquid
cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning powders
on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and
water or vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
