QuestionI bought this oven a year back and now I am having problems with the top oven heating and staying at the correct temperature...it is set on 350 or 400 but when I turn it up to preheat at a higher temperature it is showing at actually 275 or so.
Asked 5 years ago by Tina38.
- Answer Hi Tina38 - Thank you for reaching out to us and for your patience. We truly appreciate you choosing this double-oven range for your home and are very sorry to hear of the issues you are having with the temperature in your upper oven not properly adjusting. We are happy to offer you some guidance in this! When starting a Continuous or Timed Bake in the upper oven, after you press the Bake pad, followed by the Start pad, the oven will automatically start at 350 degrees F. If a different cooking temperature is desired, use the 1-5 number pads or Timer pad to select a different preset cooking temperature, then press Start. - The inconsistency between what you are seeing and the temperature you are setting may be since no feedback is given during a temperature change. We would recommend that you refer to page 12 of your Use and Care Manual to ensure that you are properly setting and adjusting your temperatures. If these suggestions do not resolve the issue, please reach out to us via our Contact Us page online so that we can get more details on your situation and offer you further troubleshooting support. Please include your name, address, phone number, email address, and the model and serial numbers for your appliance. We hope that this helps! -Eliza@GEA

QuestionDo you need a special hood BTU for the self clean/convection. Los Angeles code for ADU (Granny house). Because it is gas only 110 power?

QuestionIf you cook 4 pies at the same time (2 in each oven) and at the same temperature, will they come out the same? fruit pie takes and hour to bake to get the inside cooked and thickened while the top gets golden brown. Any issue because of shorter height?
Asked 5 years ago by BakingPies.
- Answer Hello BakingPies, Thanks so much for reaching out. We're happy to assist you. We would recommend using the convection bake on the lower oven and placing the pies on rack positions 2 and 4. Be sure to stagger the pies so that one is not above the other. You can check out our cooking guide on page 16 of the owner's manual. https://files.bbystatic.com/oVZawSst6mH2A19PjUXAig%3D%3D/93afba3f-f3b6-4cd7-9252-6fa36cc2d84a.pdf. We hope this helps.

QuestionI am trying to get to my special features by pressing the bake and broil pads at the same time on the lower oven pad and nothing is displayed. Am I doing it incorrectly.
Asked 5 years ago by Angelo.
- Answer The information about accessing the special features menu is incorrect in the documentation that came with the range and in the owner's manual online and also in the answer given by the GE representative in the previous response. I could not access the special features menu even after spending 30 minutes on the phone with the GE support desk. I set up a repair appointment, but just now someone from GE called me to explain that the correct way to access the menu is to hold down the Bake and Warm keypads on the Lower Oven control pad. That worked for me so the service call was not needed.
