What to do if my GE GRS500PV Ranges food does not broil properly?
If your food isn't broiling properly in your GE range, first ensure you've selected the correct broil mode by checking the Cooking Modes section.

If using aluminum foil on the broiling pan and grid, ensure it's properly fitted and slit as recommended.
Why do I see scratches on my GE Ranges cooktop glass surface?
Scratches on your GE range's cooktop glass surface are typically caused by improper cleaning methods, cookware with rough bottoms, or coarse particles between the cookware and the surface. Scratches are not removable, but tiny scratches will become less visible over time with cleaning. Use recommended cleaning procedures and ensure cookware bottoms are clean and smooth. See the Care and Cleaning Cooktop Surfaces - Radiant Glass section for details.
Why is there frequent cycling off and on of GE Ranges surface units?

Why is my GE GRS500PV display flashing?

Why does my GE GRS500PV sometimes take longer to preheat?
Your GE range may take longer to preheat if you have cookware or food inside the oven; remove these items to reduce preheat time. The number of racks in the oven can also affect preheating time, so remove some racks if needed. An extension rack takes more energy to heat than a flat rack, so use a flat rack to decrease preheat time. Different cooking modes also use different preheat methods, with some modes taking longer than others.
Why is my GE Ranges oven not clean after a self-clean cycle?
If your GE oven isn't clean after a self-clean cycle, it could be due to a heavily soiled oven. Before starting the cycle, clean up any heavy spillovers. For heavily soiled ovens, you may need to run the self-clean cycle again or for a longer period of time. Also, ensure the oven controls are properly set by consulting the Care and Cleaning – Interior Surfaces section.
