Why does my GE JB735 oven sometimes take longer to preheat?
The oven in your GE Ranges may take longer to preheat if there is cookware or food in the oven. Remove items to reduce preheat time. Also, adding more racks to the oven will cause the oven to take longer to preheat, so remove some racks. Different cooking modes use different preheat methods, and some modes will take longer than others (i.e., convection bake).
Why is there a “burning” or “oily” odor emitting from the vent of my new GE Ranges?
A "burning" or "oily" odor from the vent of your new GE Ranges is normal and will disappear in time. To speed up the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of 3 hours. Refer to the Cleaning the Oven section.
Why do the surface units on my GE JB735 cycle on and off frequently?

Why does the DOOR LOCK flash in the display of my GE Ranges?
If the DOOR LOCK is flashing in the display of your GE Ranges, the self-clean cycle has been selected, but the door is not closed. Close the oven door.
Why is there a strong odor coming from my GE JB735 Ranges oven?
If you notice a strong odor from your GE Ranges, it is likely due to the insulation around the inside of the oven, which is normal for the first few uses. This is temporary and will go away after several uses or a self-clean cycle.
How to remove scratches on my GE JB735 Ranges cooktop glass surface?
Scratches on the cooktop glass surface of your GE Ranges are not removable, and incorrect cleaning methods are often the cause. Tiny scratches will become less visible over time as a result of cleaning. To avoid scratches, use the recommended cleaning procedures. Ensure the bottoms of your cookware are clean before use, and use cookware with smooth bottoms to prevent further scratching.
Why is there fan noise coming from my GE JB735 oven?
If you hear fan noise from your GE Ranges, a convection fan may automatically turn on and off to maximize cooking evenness. This is normal. The convection fan will operate during preheat of the bake cycle and turn off after the oven is heated to the set temperature. Also, a cooling fan may automatically turn on and off to cool internal parts, even after the oven is turned off, which is normal on some models.
Why does the surface unit stop glowing when turned to a lower setting on my GE Ranges?
If the surface unit on your GE Ranges stops glowing when turned to a lower setting, the unit is still on and hot, which is normal.
Why is there steam coming from the vent of my GE JB735 Ranges oven?
When using the ovens in your GE Ranges, it is normal to see steam coming out of the oven vents. As the number of racks or amount of food being cooked increases, the amount of visible steam will increase.
