QuestionHow do you self clean this oven? It does not do what it explains in the manual. We are having nothing but problems with this oven! The temperature is always off by about 10 to 15 degrees in the top oven the most, and it takes longer for things to cook.
Asked 6 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hello and thank you for reaching out. We are very sorry to hear about the trouble you are experiencing. To use the self-clean mode, press the Self Clean pad once, set a time between 3 and 5 hours, and then press Start. The door will automatically lock and stay locked until the oven has reached a safe temperature after self-cleaning. To calibrate the temperature of your ovens, instructions can be found on page 16 of the manual here: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-85223-2.pdf Please let us know if you have any more questions. - John

QuestionThe bottom oven does not have the broil option. Is it possible to broil in the bottom oven? The top oven has the broil but isn't large enough to broil what I need.
Asked 7 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Hi - Thanks for considering GE! Broil is only available in the upper oven. The most intense broiling will take place in the area directly under the broil flame spreader. This is an area roughly 12" x 12". By placing the pan on the lowest rack position, the broiling area can be increased somewhat but broiling intensity will decrease as distance to the flame increases. We encourage you to follow the guidelines for Broiling in the Owner's Manual at the following link (Page 18): https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-85223-2.pdf - Keep in touch!

QuestionHas anyone successfully roasted vegetables in the top oven? We like brown, crisp edges, and I've heard gas ovens (w/o convection) produce too moist of heat to successfully roast veggies?
Asked 8 years ago by Rooney.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 6.8 Cu. Ft. Self-Cleaning Freestanding Double Oven Gas Convection Range
- Answer Hi Rooney- We are not aware of issues with roasting vegetables in our gas ovens. After baking, you could choose Broil Hi/Lo to finish or add crispness. Broil Hi uses intense heat from the upper burner and Broil Lo uses less intense heat from the upper burner. Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food (vegetables). Also, the lower oven with Convection Bake and Convection Roast use air circulation to improve performance. So you have many options to determine what method works best for you. Thanks for considering GE! SUE@GEA
