Q: QuestionDoes this come with the electric plug already attached

Asked 7 years ago by Jerry.

• A:Answer Hi Jerry- Power cords for electric free-standing ranges are sold separately. GE Appliances does not package the power cord with electric free-standing ranges since it is not possible to determine the type of facilities each consumer has available or what the local electrical codes require (ex. 3-wire vs 4-wire). We suggest to view the Installation Instructions at the following link: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=31-10892-3.PDF - Keep in touch! Sue

Q: QuestionWHY DOES MY BURNER ON LOWER SETTING GET SO HOT AND ON A HIGH SETTING COOL DOWN BY IT SELF

Asked 1 year ago by MIKE.

• A:Answer I don’t know ; best to read the manual . Maybe it’s a safety issue . The electric burners are different than gas for sure . Maybe you can call customer service as well . Hope it’s not a lemon! The burners can get quite hot and I am not sure if your question is one that I have experienced .

Q: QuestionI want to know why when I am using the oven it is constantly making a clicking sound ... We moved into a house that had this oven already and want to know If that is normal ...

Asked 1 year ago by House.

• A:Answer This is normal. Your range cycles the heating elements by turning relays on and off to maintain the oven temperature. This and more information on the sounds you may hear from your unit can be found on the website in your use and care guide (page 27). Dianna@GE Appliances

Q: QuestionHow can I but a new lock for my self cleaning oven

Asked 1 year ago by Dianna.

• A:Answer We don't offer any locks for the oven. The JB256DMWW does offer a Lock Controls feature that locks out the control so that pressing the pads does not activate the controls. For more details, please review the "Lock Controls" section on pg. 12 of the Owner's Manual. -Don@GEAppliances
