QuestionDoes it display the temperature for the oven as it is heating so you know how close it is to being at the temperature you want? If I set it at 400, will it show the heating progression? 300, then 350, and so on until it reaches 400?
Asked 4 years ago by Sumu214.
- Answer Its shows progression by degree. Top oven heats very quickly. Bottom oven around the same amount of time as a conventional oven.

QuestionWhat power cord is compatible with this oven?
Asked 4 years ago by LSreview.
- Answer Hi Siege - Thank you for your interest in a new GE model range. This range requires a 4 amp, 3 or 4 wire cord. You should select the appropriate cord based on either your local code requirements or what type of outlet you have available in your home. If you aren't sure, we recommend taking a picture of your existing outlet so you can be sure to choose the matching 40 amp cord. The installation instructions included with the range will provide instructions on connecting the cord if needed. We hope this helps. All our best! - Vikki@GEA

QuestionHi: Researching other double ovens with convection, the fan unit 'bumps' out in the back and the range cannot be pushed to the wall, causing it to stick out. Is this the case with this double convection range? Or can it be pushed flush to the wall?
Asked 4 years ago by Hopeful2021.
- Answer This oven in fact will not sit flush against the wall. Sadly I took the advise above and now it's out from the wall due to the "bumps in the back!

QuestionCan cast iron pans be used on top and in ovens
Asked 4 years ago by molo.
- Answer Hello molo, Thanks for reaching out to us! We appreciate your interest in GE Appliances, and would be happy to help you with cookware for this range. This particular range has a smooth top surface, and we recommend using medium or heavy-weight cookware made of stainless steel or heavy aluminum. Cast iron cookware is not recommended because if it has a rough spot on the bottom, it will scratch the cooktop. Once this cast iron cookware heats up, it holds an intense amount of heat which is transferred to the cooktop. This can cause the element to shut down as a response to the temperature limiters which indicate if surface temperature is too high for cooktop components to handle. However, if the cast iron is coated in porcelain, it can be used. Additional information can be found in the owner's manual at the following link: (Page 10 for cookware) https://files.bbystatic.com/fSisOvxD3G0ZOi93kLgbmg%3D%3D/1306f4cd-01c4-4fca-8a53-5f6216b36212.pdf We hope this information helps, and we thank you for choosing GE Appliances. Let us know if there are any more questions. Have a great day! -Sylvia@GEA

QuestionIs the stainless steel finish on this model the same as the GE over the range microwave with "fingerprint resistant stainless steel" (Model #JVM6175YKFS).
Asked 4 years ago by MatchingSet.
- Answer Hello MatchingSet, Thank you for reaching out. GE Appliances has designed this fingerprint resistant finish to blend with non-fingerprint resistant stainless steels. The color and tone of our Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel has very good color harmony with the other products. The finish does have a more rich satin finish (slightly less reflective), but in kitchen suite appearance reviews, this has been accepted broadly. We hope this information is helpful. Mike@GEA

QuestionI have had this oven for two weeks. When pre-heating, it clicks, loudly, every 8 seconds. It’s unbearable. I understand normal clicking, but this cannot be right. It is so loud and constant that you can’t enjoy watching TV in the other room.
Asked 4 years ago by HilaryAnne.
- Answer I have had my range for 3 months now. I love mine but mine makes no such noise. It is extremely quiet. Once it reaches temperature it does make a quiet little chime but that is all.
