A:AnswerHi Peter - Yes, all of our gas cooking appliances come ready to be connected to natural gas; however, they also come with an LP Conversion Kit to connect to LP (Liquid Propane). We recommend a qualified installer or servicer convert the gas range to the proper gas supply needed. The conversion must be in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and all codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction. The conversion instructions are located in the wiring diagram (mini-manual) or included with the LP kit attached to the appliance near the pressure regulator. Thanks for choosing GE! Sue
A:AnswerHi wormink - This range has a lower broiler drawer. Only a clean broil pan should be stored in the broiler drawer. No other items should be stored in the broiler drawer of a gas range when not in use. We also offer GE® 30" Free-Standing Gas Range JGB635DEKWW. This model has in-oven broil with a lower storage drawer. Thanks for choosing GE! Sue
A:AnswerHi Coumtrygirl- We no longer offer a gas range with standing pilot. We currently offer Hotpoint® 30" Free-Standing Gas Range RGB518PCHWH with cordless battery ignition- Battery powered ignition safely and conveniently lights the burners without the need for electrical outlet. Thanks for checking with us! SUE@GEA
A:AnswerHello, thank you for your question. Once you begin to preheat your oven, we recommend you wait 10 to 20 minutes before placing your food inside to bake. We hope this helps! Please feel free to reach out with any further questions you may have. -Chris@GEA

A:AnswerHi Candi- The cooktop burners and oven operate on Natural gas (LP Conversion Kit included if converted to LP). It also requires a 120V 15 Amp electric circuit to operate the electronic ignition. The automatic pilotless ignition (also called automatic electric or automatic electronic ignition) eliminates the need to light the burners. It also saves money by using less gas than a standing pilot range. Because this system has no standing pilot light, no gas is being used unless it is needed. With the spark igniter system, electricity simply sparks when the control is turned to the LITE position. Gas is simultaneously released and ignites when it comes in contact with the spark. Should there be a power failure, the oven will not function but the burners may be lit with a match. The glo-bar in the oven will cycle on and off with the oven temperature. When it cycles on to heat, the gas valve opens and the gas is ignited. When the oven is at temperature, the gas valve closes there are no longer flames. You only uses gas and see flames in the oven when the oven is actively heating. Keep in touch! SUE@GEA
A:AnswerHello Jaz - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. Yes, this gas range offers the electronic ignition system. Thanks for checking with us!

In my description papers ... could not find anything about a 9 V. battery.

A:AnswerIf you need to replace your range's cooktop igniter, we recommend reaching out to our Bodewell service team at 1-833-426-3393 to schedule an appointment.
A:AnswerFault codes are programmed in all GE Appliance brand range and wall oven models which feature electronic oven controls. The F1 code usually means that there is an issue problem with the key panel. It may mean that the key panel needs to be replaced. Please disconnect power to your range for a minute or two before restoring power. This may reset the internal circuitry and resolve the issue. If the code comes back, service may be needed. Please reach out to our Bodewell service team at 1-833-426-3393 to schedule an appointment. They can examine and confirm the repair work needed.
A:AnswerThis doesn't have a preheat signal or bell to tell you the oven is preheated. We recommend setting your desired temperature and waiting at least 10 minutes before placing your food inside. Please refer to page 14 in your manual for adjusting the oven temperature if needed. Joyce@GEAppliances
