Here is what I found. You can click HERE for the owners manual online, but here is the skinny

To Turn On/Off Demo Mode: Touch and hold TIMER for 5 seconds until 1 tone sounds, and "DEMO ON" appears in the display. Repeat to turn off Demo Mode

Getting appliances out of demo mode usually involves touching a special sequence or a combination of buttons. You might call an appliance store that sells that brand and ask a salesman for some guidance.

Talked to GE Help Line (1-800-626-2005) and found out the magic key combination for this microwave. Plug in after being unplugged for at least 30 sec. and then press Help plus Boost at same time for 3-4 seconds (until it beeps). The microwave will now be in normal mode (I assume you do this to put it in demo mode as well).

Press OFF 5 times to exit store demo mode.

There are different ways for each unit.... please reply with the model # if that does not work for you.

The owner's manual (which can be downloaded here) doesn't show any demo mode, but it may exist.

The first thing I would suggest is a hard reset. Unplug the unit for a minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.

If that doesn't work, leave it unplugged for maybe an hour. Then let us know if the hard reset does not fix it.

The manual mentions a child lock, but not a demo mode.

The first thing to try is a "hard reset". Unplug it from the power line for a few minutes, plug it back in, set the clock, then try again.

Pressing "timer/clock" button 4 times turns on and off demo mode.

how do i change the bulb inside the microwave ge xl 1800 

I just bought a condo with a GE Spacemaker Mod# JVM1860SD
that was stuck in demo mode. (This mod# has been replaced by the JVM1870*** series)

I called GE twice in two days, and finally got someone who had the solution (and it worked):

1. Unplug the unit for at least 30 seconds
2. Plug the unit back in DO NOT SET THE CLOCK
3. While the unit is still "booting up" and the display screen is lit with gibberish, HOLD THE POWER LEVEL AND THE ZERO BUTTON for at least 5 seconds.
4. After 5 seconds, the screen will display "demo mode off"

It messed me up at first because the power level and zero pads don't beep when the unit is booting up... but it worked.
- Again, this is for the GE Spacemaker 1860-1870 series models only - The women who gave me instructions said she had different demo mode unlock methods for the 1400, 3670, 2070 etc... so call GE if you have a different model.
P.S. my model looks like this - the keypad setup is key http://products.geappliances.com/ApplProducts/Dispatcher?REQUEST=SPECPAGE&SKU=JVM1870SK&SITEID=GEA
