Be sure you turn the control knob to OFF when you finish cooking.

Radiant Surface Units

The control for the radiant surface unit can be set anywhere between LO and HI for an unlimited number of heat settings. With the infinite switch the coil cycles on and off to maintain your selected control setting.

To bring liquids to a boil faster, use a lid to cover the pan.

The control knob must be pushed down and turned from the OFF position. When the control knobs are in any position other than off, they may be turned without pushing down.

Be sure you turn the control knob off when you finish cooking. You will feel a click at the OFF position.

The surface unit ON indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on.

NOTE: The surface unit ON indicator light may glow between the surface control settings of LO and OFF, but there is no power to the surface units.

Cooktop temperatures increase with the number of surface units that are on. With 3 or 4 units turned on, surface temperatures are high so be careful when touching the cooktop.

The HOT SURFACE indicator lights will glow when any radiant element is turned on, and will remain on until the surface is cooled to approximately 150°F.

NOTE:

■Hot Surface Indicator Lights come on instantly and stay on even after the surface unit is turned off.

■They glow brightly until the unit is cooled to approximately 150°F.

DRAGGING

About the radiant surface units…

The radiant cooktop features heating units beneath a smooth glass surface.

NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new parts and insulating materials and will disappear in a short time.

NOTE: On models with light colored glass cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to change color when hot or cooling down. This is temporary and will disappear as the glass cools to room temperature.

The surface unit will cycle on and off to maintain your selected control setting.

It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven or surface on the glass surface when the surface is cool.

Even after the surface units are turned off, the glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue cooking. To avoid over- cooking, remove pans from the surface units when the food is cooked. Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until it has cooled completely.

■Water stains (mineral deposits) are removable using the cleaning cream or full strength white vinegar.

■Use of window cleaner may leave an iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning cream will remove this discoloration.

■Don’t store heavy items above the cooktop. If they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause damage.

■Do not use the surface as a cutting board.

Cleaning Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support

Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because it can scratch the glass. The glass is scratch-resistant, not scratchproof.

This professional-grade range offers a unique blend of style, functionality, and innovative features that enhance the cooking experience.

One of the standout features of the GE JP989SKSS is its dual fuel capability. By combining the precision of a gas cooktop with the even baking performance of an electric oven, this appliance provides the best of both worlds. Home cooks can enjoy the instant heat and temperature control of a gas burner while benefiting from the consistent heat distribution of an electric oven, making it ideal for baking and roasting.

The oven of the GE JP989SKSS features a generous capacity that allows users to cook multiple dishes at once without sacrificing quality. It employs advanced convection technology, which circulates hot air throughout the oven for faster and more even cooking results. This capability is particularly advantageous for baking, ensuring that pastries rise beautifully and roasts cook thoroughly.

Another notable technology in this range is the edge-to-edge cooktop design. This feature provides a seamless surface, allowing for easy movement of pots and pans across the entire cooktop. Moreover, the surface is made from easy-to-clean stainless steel, making maintenance a breeze.

The GE JP989SKSS also offers smart features, allowing users to control their oven remotely through a smartphone app. This technology enables cooks to preheat the oven, set timers, and receive alerts, providing greater flexibility in managing meal preparation.

Safety is a priority with features like the auto shut-off capability, which automatically turns off the oven after a set period, preventing any potential hazards. The range also includes a self-cleaning function, simplifying the process of maintaining a spotless oven.

In summary, the GE JP989SKSS stands out due to its dual fuel capability, powerful burners, convection baking technology, and smart home integration.
