GE JGRP20WEJWW - Manual (Page 5)

The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow
these instructions for safe operation.
„ Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean operation.
Keep children away from the oven during self-cleaning.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause burns.
„ Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove pans,
shiny metal oven racks and other utensils from the
oven. Only porcelain-coated oven racks may be left in
the oven. Do not use self-clean to clean other parts,
such as grates.
„ Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and
food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease
may ignite leading to smoke damage to your home.
„ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off
and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a
qualified technician.
„ Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner
or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be
used in or around any part of the oven.

WARNING SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
„
Use this appliance for its intended purpose as described
in this owner’s manual.
„ Stand away from the range when opening the oven
door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns
to hands, face and/or eyes.
„ Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the
oven may ignite.
„ Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool.
If rack must be moved while oven is hot, be careful to
avoid touching hot surfaces.
„ Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when
loading and unloading food from the oven. This helps
prevent burns from touching hot surfaces of the door
and oven walls.
„ Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or
food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an
oven can ignite.
„ Do not leave items on the cooktop near the oven vent
which is in the center of the backguard. Items may
overheat resulting in a risk of fire or burns.
„ When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow
the manufacturer’s directions.
„ Never broil with door open. Open-door broiling is not
permitted due to overheating of controls.

WARNING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes,
or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire
rack with materials such as aluminum foil or oven
liners. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Never place
foil or oven liners on the oven bottom. They can trap
heat causing risk of smoke or fire.
