GEAppliances.com Problem Control signals after entering cooking time or start time Display goes blank Display flashes Unable to get the display to show "SF" "Probe" appears in the display Power outage, clock flashes Steam from the vent "Burning" or "oily" odor emitting from the vent Strong odor Fan noise Possible Causes You forgot to enter a bake temperature or cleaning time. What To Do • Touch the BAKE pad and desired temperature or the SELF CLEAN STD/LOW pad and desired clean time. A fuse in your home may be blown or the circuit breaker tripped. The clock is in the black-out mode. • Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. • See the Special features of your oven control section. Power failure. • Reset the clock. Oven control pads were not touched properly. • The BROIL HI/LO and BAKE pads must be touched at the same time and held for 3 seconds. This is reminding you to enter a probe temperature after plugging in the probe. • Enter a probe temperature. Power outage or surge. • Reset the clock. If the oven was in use, you must reset it by touching the CLEAR/OFF pad, setting the clock and resetting any cooking function. When using the convection feature, it is normal to see steam coming out of the oven vent. As the number of racks or amount of food being cooked increases, the amount of visible steam will increase. • This is normal. This 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 Using the self-cleaning oven section. An odor from the insulation around the inside of the oven is normal for the first few times the oven is used. • This is temporary. A cooling fan or a convection fan (depending on the function you are using) may automatically turn on and off. • This is normal. The cooling fan will turn off and on to cool internal parts. It may run after the oven is turned OFF. The convection fan will cycle on and off until the function is over or the door is opened. 41
