Warranty Information
GE offers a one-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, including parts, labor, and in-home service.
Safety First: Always read and follow safety instructions, including warnings about gas leaks, tipping hazards, and electrical safety. Always use the anti-tip device.
