If you are unable to get the display to show 'SF' on your GE Oven, the oven control pads were not pressed properly. The BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads must be touched at the same time and held for 3 seconds.
Why is my GE JRP20 smoking excessively during the clean cycle?
Excessive smoking during a clean cycle in your GE Oven is often due to excessive soil. To resolve this, touch the CLEAR/OFF pad, open the windows to rid the room of smoke, wait until the LOCKED light goes off, wipe up the excess soil, and reset the clean cycle.
What to do if LOCKED light is on when I want to cook in my GE JRP20?
If the LOCKED light is on when you want to cook in your GE Oven, the oven door is likely locked because the temperature inside the oven has not dropped below the locking temperature. Touch the CLEAR/OFF pad and allow the oven to cool.
What to do if my GE Oven door will not open after a clean cycle?
If your GE Oven door won't open after a clean cycle, it's likely because the oven is still too hot. Allow the oven to cool below locking temperature.
Why won't my GE JRP20 self clean?
If your GE Oven will not self-clean, it may be because the oven temperature is too high to set a self-clean operation. Allow the oven to cool to room temperature and reset the controls.
Why is my GE JRP20 Oven temperature too hot or too cold?
If your GE Oven temperature is too hot or too cold, the oven thermostat may need adjustment. See the Adjust the oven thermostat Do It Yourself section.
Why does my GE JRP20 Oven control signal after entering cooking time or delay start?
If your GE Oven control signals after entering cooking time or delay start, you may have forgotten to enter a bake temperature or cleaning time. Touch the BAKE pad and desired temperature or the SELF CLEAN pad and desired clean time.
Why does my GE JRP20 have a 'burning' or 'oily' odor emitting from the vent?
A 'burning' or 'oily' odor emitting from the vent of your GE Oven is normal in a new oven and will disappear in time. To speed the process, set a self-clean cycle for a minimum of 3 hours. See the Self-cleaning oven section.
Why does my GE JRP20 display go blank?
If your GE Oven display goes blank, a fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
Why is the 'LOCK DOOR' flashing in the display of my GE JRP20 Oven?
