ABOUT THIS TECHNICAL SERVICE GUIDE - FEATURED MODEL
The new XL44™ series of gas ranges encompass over 40 different models. We have selected one model which
covers most of the new features and designs reflected in the XL44™, 30" gas series of ranges. For model specific
information, refer to the charts included in this Guide, on pages 8 & 9.
This service guide will focus primarily on the NEW changes introduced in the XL44™ series of ranges. What this
guide will not cover are features, technology and serviceability that we have previously covered in prior training
manuals. If you would like additional information on the XL44™ series of ranges which will not be coved in this
manual, refer to the following previously issued training publications

Title
XL44™: SELF-CLEANING WITH SEALED BURNERS

A FULL RANGE OFPOWER
YOU DON'T COOK SPAGHETTI THE SAME WAY YOU SAUTÉ MUSHROOMS.
You don't want a sauce to boil when it's supposed to simmer. For best results,
different foods should be cooked over differing levels of heat. That's why, on GE
gas ranges, each burner has its own BTU rating. The high-output burner provides
quick heat-up and boiling—faster than the “high-power” burners found on most
gas ranges. This burner supplies the intense heat needed for the lobster pot, pasta
pan, or wok. At the other end of the spectrum is the ultra-low simmer burner. The
simmer burner provides precise temperature control and the consistently gentle
heating required for delicate foods or sauces. Between these extremes are two all-
purpose burners with a mid-range of power, for cooking over medium heat. It all
adds up to a full range of power, to help you control cooking with a greater degree
of precision. And GE makes it so easy. Simply choose the burner and heat level best
suited to the cooking—Maximum output, Precise simmer, or virtually any point
in between.
When it comes to BTUs, the GE gas
range delivers the highs, the lows and
everything in between.

GE TRUETEMP,™THE MOST ACCURATE OVEN IN AMERICA!
The guesswork is gone. The temperamental oven is a thing of the past.
GE's exclusive TrueTemp™system manages and maintains the oven temperature
you select. It's more accurate than any other leading brand. The SmartLogic™
electronic control, with a platinum sensor, constantly monitors the oven's
performance to ensure more precise temperature management. (Even if you
open the door when the oven is on, SmartLogic™senses variations in temperature
and responds to regain the selected setting.) The TrueTemp™system also includes
a new enhanced broil system, which distributes heat broadly and evenly for
improved cooking performance. QuickSet electronic controls make it easy for
you to set the oven temperature and the time for baking or broiling. And the
extra-large oven, broiler pan and grid provide the capacity you need when
cooking for a crowd.
WHEN ITCOMES TOACCURACY, GE TRUETEMP™ISRIGHT ONTHE MARK

a more accurate and consistent heating

ONLY GE GAS RANGES HAVE ANAPPETITE THIS BIG
THE LARGEST USABLE OVEN CAPACITY IN 30" FREE-STANDING MODELS*
There's more oven space inside the GE 30" free-standing gas range—room for an
entree and four casseroles, with space to spare. For baking, you have the flexibility
of using as many as six racks, or as few as you wish. QuickSet touchpad controls
make it easy to set the oven temperature and baking or broiling time. The oven is
self-cleaning, and the range top needs only a wipe with a sponge to keep it shiny and
bright. Burners are sealed to the cooktop, to keep spills from running below, and
topped with stylish, square cast grates. Naturally, the burners have varying degrees
of power, allowing you to choose the one most suitable for sautéing, simmering,
heating or boiling. Whether you're hungry for capacity, flexibility or cleanability, no
one understands how to satisfy your hunger like the range with the biggest appetite
for customer satisfaction.

THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE IS THE STRIKING DESIGN. A bold,
geometric pattern tops off this GE gas range, but there's more to the cooktop than
its beauty. The big story here is convenience. The cast-iron platform, made up of
two interlocking grates, provides a flat surface for cooking and meal
preparation. To switch cookware from one burner to another, you don't have to
lift the pans, perform a balancing act, and risk spilling the contents. Just slide the
pans from burner to burner. The cooktop design allows you to easily rotate pots
and pans as needed—and it's especially helpful when you're handling a larger pot
of bubbling soup or stew. The space in the center can be used for preparing foods
or for transferring cooked foods to serving dishes. We've even simplified clean-up
for you, by making the grates easy to uncouple and remove for washing. Since
Americans do most of their cooking on top of the range, it just makes sense to
build convenience into the cooktop design. That's the way we see it. And that's the
way we've done it, “plain” and simple.
WE'VE PUT A NEW SPIN ONA GRATE TOP
GE's professional grate lets you slide hot
pans on and off burners without lifting,
balancing or spilling.

ELECTRODE MOUNTING
Each electrode pushes into a
clip (compression sleeve),
which mounts to each of the
four orifice holders. This
allows the electrode to be
removed without lifting the
top. To remove the
electrode, grasp it with your
finger and thumb and pull
upward. A slight twisting
action may help in removing
the electrode. All four
electrodes MUST be
removed prior to lifting the
top.
HOLDER, ORIFICE
To improve alignment and stability the 4 burner orifice brackets
(holders) have been modified. The brackets are mounted to the
cooktop with three "T-15" torx screws. The screw heads are
located under the burner head. These screws MUST be
removed prior to lifting the cooktop. The rigid mounting system
ensures proper alignment of the orifice for gas to be injected
into the burner head.
BURNER HEAD
The burner head has a flame stability
chamber which protects a small pocket of
flame. This small pocket of flame provides
quick reignition, in the event of a minor
burner flame outage during simmer. It also
provides an additional measure of safety.
The burner head also provides a positive
target area for the Ignitor.

COOK TOP / SURFACE BURNERS
TO RAISE OR REMOVE COOK TOP
FOR REMOVAL:
IMPORTANT COOK TOP REINSTALLATION NOTES:
Before lowering the top onto the front clips, feed the electrode
leads through each opening in the cook top. Next be sure that the
electrode clips are inserted into each of the orifice brackets (see
illustration below). Line up the orifice brackets with the holes in
the cook-top and start the screws, which secure the cook-top to
the orifice holders. Before tightening the screws be sure to check
the electrode leads to ensure that they do not get pinched
between the cook top and the orifice holder. Reconnect the
electrode wires and gently push each of the electrodes into
position.
When reinstalling the top, position the top to be the equivalent of
1/2 way lowered, before attempting to insert the top hinge pins
into the corresponding slots on the back-guard.
Remove 4 burner caps and 4 burner heads
Remove 4 electrodes (pull up on the electrode while gently
rotating at the same time) & disconnect electrode leads.
Remove (12) T-15 torx screws which mount the orifice holders

CONVERSION TO LP (PROPANE) GAS
Convert Regulator - Regulator is located in the lower, left
hand rear corner of the range as viewed from the front.
Depending on the model, remove the storage drawer,
broiler drawer or false panel to access the regulator. Some
models with a broiler drawer will have a metal cover over
the regulator that must be removed for conversion and
reinstalled when conversion is complete.
To Convert - remove the large hex-nut which is located in
the center of the regulator. Remove the plastic pin from
the bottom side of the cap, turn the pin 180 degrees and
snap the pin back into the cap. There are raised letters on
the flat side of the plastic pin, "NAT" and "L.P.". In the"LP"
position the end of the pin marked "NAT" should be
snapped into the bottom of the hex-nut.
Remove surfaced burners and replace all 4 top burner
orifices spuds with the L.P. orifice spuds supplied with the
range (refer to the Technical Data Sheet supplied with the
product for proper L.P. spud location and orifice color
identification).
Using a 1/2" wrench, tighten the orifice hood(s) supplying
gas to the oven burner(s) clockwise until snug.
Open the air shutter on the oven burner(s) to the full open
position and adjust as needed.
Adjust the low flame (simmer) setting on the surface
burners.

The top burner valves have low flame/simmer
adjustment screws in the center of the control shafts. A
flashlight may be required to locate the screw. A small
thin blade screwdriver (approx. 3/32" blade width) is
needed to access the screw.
TO ADJUST THE LOW FLAME SETTING- at least two
other burners must be lit. Lite the burner being adjusted
and turn the knob to "LOW". Remove the knob and
insert the screwdriver into the shaft of the control valve.
Turn the adjustment screw to reach the desired flame
size.
TEST FLAME STABILITY - by quickly turning the knob
from "HI" to "LOW". If the flame goes out, increase the
flame size and test again. Also test flame stability by
quickly opening and closing the oven door. If the flame
is extinguished by the air current created by the door
movement, increase the flame size.
LOW FLAME (SIMMER) ADJUSTMENTS
The top burner orifices can be removed by
removing the burner cap and burner heads.
Using a 7 millimeter (mm) or a 9/32" nut-driver
carefully slide the driver down over the orifice
and rotate counterclockwise to remove.
IMPORTANT NOTE: the orifices have a spring
loaded retaining ring around the hex head to
hold the orifice in the nut driver during
installation and removal. A slight amount of
force is required to push the nut driver down
over the ring.

TOP BURNER FLAME ADJUSTMENTS
The top burners do not have air shutters
adjustments and use non-adjustable
orifices. If the flame lifts off of the
burner, or if you experience "Yellow Tip"
flames and/or soot in the flames, be sure
to check the following:
Gas pressure: 4" W.C.P. (natural) and
10" W.C.P. (L.P.)
Inspect orifice to be sure it is drilled in
the center and free of debris or burrs.
Be sure the correct size orifice is in
the proper location
Make sure the range was properly
converted if on L.P.
If the cause of sooting can not be
found in the above checks, replace
the orifice with one having a smaller
diameter opening

LIGHTING SURFACE BURNERS - When one burner is
turned to the LITE position, all the burners will spark.
The igniter switches now come as one assembly, each
one wired in parallel to the other.
BROILING - The oven door must be closed during
broiling operation.
SELF CLEANING - We recommend venting with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during
the first self-clean cycle.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protectors
in or near the self-cleaning oven. A combination of any
of these products plus the high clean cycle temperatures
may damage the porcelain finish of the oven.
The oven front frame and the oven door outside the
gasket do not get cleaned by the self-clean cycle. On
these areas use detergent and hot water or a soap-filled
steel wool pad. Rinse well with a vinegar and water
solution. This will help prevent a brown residue from
forming when the oven is heated. Buff these areas with
a dry cloth. Do not clean the gasket.

ERC FAULT CODE MEMORY DISPLAY
Have you ever run a service call and been told by the consumer
that their range displayed an "F" fault code and when you arrive
the fault is gone (cleared by the consumer) and the consumer
can not remember what the code was?
Well there is now a way to "recall" the last four fault codes from
the ERC memory. Care must be taken in interpreting these
codes because once you determine the cause of the fault code,
there is no way to clear the code(s) from the ERC memory. In
other words, the history that you are looking at in the display
could be a weeks worth of history, or 5 years - there is no way to
tell. With this in mind, the last fault code stored in memory is the
one that you should focus on, because the others may have
occured a long time prior to the last one.
HOW TO DISPLAY THE FAULT CODES IN MEMORY
To read the fault code memory, follow the steps below:
If we displayed the fault code memory for a new range, one
that has never experienced a fault code, we would see four zero's
in the display, meaning that no fault codes are stored in memory.
The first time a fault code occurs, the ERC display will store
the fault code in it's memory. When you read the fault code,
which is stored in memory, the code will display in the far right
hand digit of the clock display.
If a second fault code occurs, it too is stored in the ERC
memory. The first fault code stored in memory scrolls to the left,
and the new fault code now displays in the far right hand digit of
the clock display.
If the same fault code repeats itself (sequencially), without
being separated by a different fault code, then the repeated fault
code will "stack" in memory. In other words, the repeated fault
code will only display once, unless separated by a different fault
code. In this example, F3 repeats itself twice, the resulting fault
code memory display only shows one 3. The same would also
be true if F3 repeated itself four times, the result showing in the
fault code memory display would be one "3", NOT four "3"'s.
If a fourth fault code occurs, the ERC will scroll the previous
fault codes stored in memory to the left, one digit, and store the
new fault code in the far right hand digit of the clock display.
If a fifth fault code occurs, the ERC will continue to scroll the
previous fault codes to the left, and store the new fault code in
the far right hand digit of the clock display.
If a sixth fault code occurs, the ERC will once again scroll the
previous fault codes to the left. Notice in this example the first
fault code (F1), previously stored in memory is now lost. The
ERC will continue to scroll the previous fault codes to the left and
store the new fault code in the far right hand digit of the clock
display.
Simultaneously press the COOKING TIME, DELAYSTART
and number 9 pads. A history of the last four fault codes
will appear in the display. NOTE: If no keypad entry is
made within 5 minutes, the ERC test mode will "time out".
To terminate the memory fault mode press the CLEAR /

ERC ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TESTS
This test allows the Technician to energize the bake and broil
relays (listen for A click), use the ovens onboard temperature
sensing and control system to measure oven temperature
(sensor, connector and ERC diagnosis) and lastly it allows you to
test keypanel input responses.
HOW TO ENTER AND EXIT THE DIAGNOSTIC MODE
To perform the ERC diagnostic tests, follow the steps below:
HOW TO PERFORM THE TESTS
The following tests allow you to quickly varify various ERC and
keypanel functions. Listed below are four common diagnostic
tests that can be made directly from the ERC.
ENERGIZE BAKE CIRCUIT - To perform this test, press BAKE
then START and listen for the bake relay to energize. CAUTION:
If you hold the start pad in, you are energizing the BAKE circuit.
As soon as you release the START pad the relay will deenergize.
If the relay does not energize, check the following: reconfirm that
you have entered the test mode correctly, check power and
wiring connections to the ERC, and lastly suspect a faulty ERC.
NOTE: when performing this test, the glowbar will be energized
as long as you hold in the start pad.
ENERGIZE BROIL RELAY- To perform this test, press BROIL
then START and listen for the broil relay to energize. CAUTION: If
you hold the start pad in, you are energizing the BROIL circuit.
As soon as you release the START pad the relay will deenergize.
If the broil relay does not energize, check the following: reconfirm
that you have entered the test mode correctly, check powerand
wiring connections to the ERC, and lastly suspect a faulty ERC.
NOTE: when performing this test, the glowbar will be energized
as long as you hold in the start pad.
SENSOR TEST - To perform this test, press and hold the
COOKING TIME pad or DELAY START pad (vaies by model).
The oven temperature will show in the display. NOTE: oven
temperatures below 100°F. will show as 100°F. If the
temperature showing in the display is not correct then suspect the
following: calibration, sensor, sensor connection, or ERC.
NUMERIC KEY PADS TEST- To perform proper numeric key
panel input responses, press any numbered key pad and hold it in
for approximately 5 seconds; the number you are pressing will
show in the ERC display. If it does not, reconfirm that youhave
entered the test mode correctly, check wiring connections to the
ERC and keypanel, and lastly confirm shorted or open key pad by
performing the Key Panel test on page 10.
