GE JGRP20WEJWW - Manual (Page 18)

For the first self-clean cycle, we recommend
venting your kitchen with an open window or
using a ventilation fan or hood.
Remove racks, any broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
The shiny, silver-colored oven racks (on some
models) can be self-cleaned, but they will darken,
lose their luster and become hard to slide.
Soil on the front frame of the oven and outside
the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned
by hand. Clean these areas with hot water,
soap-filled scrubbing pads or cleansers such as
Soft Scrub ® . Rinse well with clean water and dry.
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material
of the oven door gasket cannot withstand
abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain
intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed,
replace it.
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven
bottom.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.

extremely sensitive to the fumes given off
during the self-cleaning cycle of any oven.
Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
