Q: QuestionDoes this come with a propane "conversion" kit?

Asked 7 years ago by Justwanttocook.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 5.0 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Range - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Hello Justwanttocook, I am happy to help. This model does offer a LP conversion kit as an option and it is included with the range. GE recommends a qualified installer or servicer convert the gas range, oven, or cooktop 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. I hope this helps. Thank you for choosing GE Appliances. Lisa from GE Appliances.

Q: QuestionAre the grates really dishwasher safe. The description and pictures implied they are. The GE website says they are only dishwasher safe if they are coated with enamel. Mine are not . So does this mean mine are NOT dishwasher safe?

Asked 5 years ago by Annk.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 5.0 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Range - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Hi Kashi, thanks for reaching out! Grates should be washed regularly in hot soapy water, rinsed in clean water, and dried before placing them back on range. Grates and caps can be cleaned in dishwasher as long as they are enamel coated on the bottom. If your grates are not enamel coated, then we would not recommend washing them in the dishwasher. We hope that this helps! All the best. -Michael

Q: QuestionWhy can't you use "Oven Cleaner" for the inside of the oven? I have tried the steam cleaning option and it doesn't clean it.

Asked 5 years ago by Kate.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 5.0 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Gas Range - Slate

• A:Answer Hello Kate, Thanks so much for reaching out. We're happy to answer your question. We do not recommend the use of oven cleaner because continuous use of chemical cleaners on a self-cleaning oven liner will cause etching and discoloration of the liner, and eventually cause the oven not to clean effectively when using the self-clean cycle. If your oven is not cleaned after running a steam clean, we recommend running a second clean or a self clean cycle. We hope this helps. Best wishes! Mike@GEA
