Why does my GE JB735 oven door glass appear to be "tinted" or have a "rainbow" color?
If your GE Ranges oven door glass appears to be "tinted" or have a "rainbow" color, this is normal. The inner oven glass is coated with a heat barrier to reflect the heat back into the oven to prevent heat loss and keep the outer door cool while baking. Under certain light or angles, you may see this tint or rainbow color.
Why are the oven racks difficult to slide in my GE Ranges?
If the oven racks are difficult to slide in your GE Ranges, and the shiny, silver-colored racks were cleaned in a self-clean cycle, apply a small amount of vegetable oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven racks with the paper towel. Do not spray with Pam® or other lubricant sprays.

How to broil food properly in GE JB735?
To broil food properly in your GE Ranges, ensure you select the appropriate broil mode and use the correct rack position. Make sure food is cooked in a cool pan specifically designed for broiling. If using aluminum foil on the broiling pan and grid, ensure it has been fitted properly and slit as recommended. In some areas the power (voltage) may be low, preheat the broil element for 10 minutes.
Why is there fan noise on my GE JB735?
If you experience fan noise on some models of GE Ranges, a convection fan may automatically turn on and off. This is normal, as the fan is designed to operate intermittently to maximize cooking evenness. The convection fan will operate during preheat of the bake cycle and will turn off after the oven is heated to the set temperature. A cooling fan may also automatically turn on and off. This is normal on some models. The cooling fan will turn off and on to cool internal parts and may run after the oven is turned off.
Why do the surface units on my GE JB735 cycle on and off frequently?

What to do if my GE Ranges oven is not clean after a clean cycle?
If your GE Ranges oven is not clean after running a clean cycle, this may be because the oven controls were improperly set. See the Cleaning the Oven section for guidance.
