Selecting types of cookware.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavyweight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residue sometimes appears as scratches on the cooktop but can be removed if cleaned immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not be used.

Copper:

recommended

Copper Bottoms:

usable, but not recommended

Pans with copper bottoms may leave residue appearing as scratches. Remove any residue immediately after use. Do not let a pot boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to the glass cooktop and leave a permanent stain if it is not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel-Covered Cast Iron:

recommended

As long as the cookware is covered completely with porcelain enamel, this cookware is recommended. Caution is recommended for cast-iron cookware that is not completely covered with smooth porcelain enamel, since it may scratch the glass ceramic cooktop.

Glass-Ceramic:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

usable, but not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Use pans that match the diameter of the surface element. Cooking performance will not be as good if the cookware is either smaller or larger than the surface element.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop.

Do not use woks with support rings on the glass cooktop.

Use flat-bottomed woks on the glass cooktop.

For Best Results

Place only dry pans on the surface elements. Do not place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids.

Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on glass surface elements.

We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface element

to ensure proper contact.

Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers, deep-fat fryers, etc. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the correct size.

JP655 specifications

The GE JP655 is a robust and versatile gas range that epitomizes modern kitchen functionality, catering to the demands of both amateur cooks and culinary enthusiasts. This appliance combines advanced technology with practical features, making it a centerpiece for any kitchen space.

One of the standout features of the GE JP655 is its powerful cooking performance, highlighted by its six sealed burners. These burners offer a range of BTU output, allowing users to simmer, sauté, and sear with precision. The integrated cast iron grates provide durability and are designed for easy maneuverability of pots and pans. The ability to achieve high heat quickly is particularly beneficial for techniques such as stir-frying and intense boiling.

In addition to its impressive burners, the GE JP655 features a spacious oven that offers a range of cooking options.
