Model PHS925
The Profile 30-in. Slide-In Induction Range with convection oven and warming drawer features electronic
oven and induction element controls. The induction elements provide unmatched cooking performance and
flexibility. Induction technology heats only the pan and its contents and offers energy efficiency by reducing
wasted heat when compared to radiant and gas cooktops.
The Profile 30-in. Slide-in Induction Range has the following new features:
• Easy cleanability―cooktop cleaning is easier since spills and splatters do not burn on the cooktop.
GE's Profile 30-in. Slide-In Radiant Range utilizes 2 ovens with convection cooking in the lower oven. This
range features electronic oven and surface unit controls that combine modern digital technology with ease
of operation. The superior style and performance parallel many commercial ranges.
The Profile 30-in. Slide-in Radiant Range has the following new features:
• Electronically controlled oven heating elements―provide precise cooking control with fast preheating.
• Convection mode uses reverse-air convection technology―a bidirectional fan that works with a
dedicated third heating element to
promote even heat circulation.
• Full-extension racks

Diagnostics and Service Information
Failure Codes
The main logic board has error (F) codes that can be utilized by the service technician in order to quickly
identify failed or improper operation of certain range components. F-codes are not shown on the display
when they occur; they are stored in EEprom and can be retrieved.
Note:
• The oven controls shown below may vary from your model, but the procedures to access failure codes
for PHS925 and PS978 are similar.
• For the first 3 minutes after power up, the F-codes will show on the display.
