Installation Instructions

WARNING!

INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information, consult a qualified installer, service agency, manufacturer (dealer) or the gas supplier.

Never reuse old flexible connectors. The use

of old flexible connectors can cause gas leaks and personal injury. Always use NEW flexible connectors when installing a gas appliance.

IMPORTANT – Remove all packing material and literature from oven before connecting gas and electrical supply to range.

CAUTION – Do not attempt to operate the oven of this range during a power failure (Electric Ignition models only).

■Have your range installed by a qualified installer.

■Your range must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70, latest edition). In Canada, electrical grounding must be in accordance with the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1 and/or local codes. See

Electrical Connections in this section.

■Before installing your range on linoleum or any other synthetic floor covering, make sure the floor covering can withstand 180°F without shrinking,

warping or discoloring. Do not install the range over carpeting unless a sheet of 1/4″ thick plywood or similar insulator is placed between the range and carpeting.

■Make sure the wall coverings around the range can withstand heat generated by the range up to 200°F.

■Avoid placing cabinets above the range. To reduce the hazard caused by reaching over the open flames of operating burners, install a ventilation

hood over the range that projects forward at least 5″ beyond the front of the cabinets.

■The ventilating hood must be constructed of sheet metal not less than 0.0122″ thick.

Install above the cooktop with a clearance of not less than 1/4″ between the hood and the underside of the combustible material or metal cabinet. The hood must be at least as wide as the appliance and centered over the appliance. Clearance between the cooking surface and the ventilation hood surface MUST NEVER BE LESS THAN 24

INCHES.

EXCEPTION: Installation of a listed microwave oven or cooking appliance over the cooktop shall conform to the installation instructions packed with that appliance.

■If cabinets are placed above the range,

allow a minimum clearance of 30″ between the cooking surface and the bottom of unprotected cabinets.

■If a 30″ clearance between cooking surface and overhead combustible material or metal cabinets

cannot be maintained, protect the underside of the cabinets above the cooktop with not less than 1/4″

insulating millboard covered with sheet metal not less than 0.0122″ thick. Clearance between the cooking surface and protected cabinets MUST

NEVER BE LESS THAN 24 INCHES.

■The vertical distance from the plane of the cooking

surface to the bottom of adjacent overhead cabinets extending closer than 1″ to the plane of the range sides must not be less than 18″. (See the Dimensions and Clearances illustration in this section.)

■CAUTION – Items of interest to children should not be stored in cabinets above a range or on the backsplash of a range—children climbing on the range to reach items could be seriously injured.

The integrated electronic ignition ensures a reliable start-up, while the gas burners provide responsive heat adjustment, enabling users to achieve the desired cooking temperatures efficiently.

Another significant aspect of the GE JGB920 is its Smart technology capability. By connecting to a home network, users can control the range remotely via a smartphone app. This feature allows for preheating the oven or adjusting cooking settings from the comfort of another room, adding convenience to the cooking process.

The cooktop itself is designed with versatility in mind. It offers multiple burner sizes, including a powerful high-heat burner for boiling and a simmer burner for delicate sauces. This flexibility meets various cooking demands, from searing to simmering, enhancing the range's overall functionality.

Safety is also a priority in the design of the GE JGB920. The range includes a variety of safety features, such as a gas safety valve and a child lock, ensuring peace of mind for families.
