Wall Oven or Range - My Self-Clean Cycle Didn't Start

Wall ovens and ranges with self-clean cycles can be set to start immediately or even at a future time (on some models). If you started the self-clean cycle but it never started, it may be easy to resolve.  

Before considering service, check the following:

 

• Starting temperature of the oven too high

  • The self-clean cycle will not start if the oven temperature is too high. If you just finished cooking, give the oven time to cool completely before self-cleaning. 

• Make sure you set up the cycle properly

  • It's easy to accidentally skip a step. Check your Owner's Manual to verify the steps for setting self-clean on your model. 

• If you have a double oven,self-clean will only run on one oven at a time.

 

 

If this doesn't help get the self-clean cycle started, you may need service.  For service, please schedule an appointment with GE Appliances Factory Service.
