Why is there fan noise coming from my GE JK3800SHSS?
A cooling fan may automatically turn on in your GE Oven. This is normal. The cooling fan will turn on to cool internal parts. It may run for up to 1-1/2 hours after the oven is turned off.
What to do if my GE JK3800SHSS will not start?
If your GE oven will not start, a possible cause is that a fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
What to do if my GE JK3800SHSS Oven door will not open after a clean cycle?
If the door of your GE oven will not open after a clean cycle, it is likely that the oven is still too hot. Allow the oven to cool below the locking temperature, and then try opening the door again.
What to do if my GE JK3800SHSS Oven will not self- clean?
Your GE oven may not start a self-clean cycle if the temperature is too high. Allow the oven to cool, and then reset the controls to start the self-clean cycle.
Why does “Control is LOCKED” appear in the display of my GE JK3800SHSS?
If “Control is LOCKED” appears in the display of your GE oven, the control has been locked. To unlock it, press and hold the Settings pad for 3 seconds.
Why do the pads on one side of the GE Oven control not function?
If the pads on one side of your GE oven control do not function, the control has locked out the use of these pads and needs to be reset. Press and hold the Clear/Off pad on the other side of the display for 30 seconds. If this does not reset the control, it may be necessary to cycle the circuit breaker.
What to do if my GE JK3800SHSS Oven food is not fully cooked or browned?
If food is not fully cooked or browned at the end of a cooking program in your GE oven, the programmed times may not match the size or amount of food you are cooking. Adjust the cooking time for doneness, or adjust the upper or lower lamps for browning and doneness.
Why is my new GE JK3800SHSS Oven not cooking like my old one?
Your new GE oven has a different cooking system from your old oven and therefore may cook differently. For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and temperatures carefully. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the temperature yourself to meet your specific cooking preference. NOTE: This adjustment affects Bake temperatures; it will not affect Broil or Clean.
Why does my GE JK3800SHSS Oven sometimes take longer to preheat?
Your GE oven may take longer to preheat if there is cookware or food in the oven. Remove these items to reduce preheat time. Also, adding more racks to the oven will cause it to take longer to preheat, so remove some racks if possible.
