A built-in microwave in a kitchen cabinet stopped halfway through a cycle, a covered glass dish of vegetables inside behind the mesh window and a faint wisp of steam on the glass.

What ERROR
actually means.

The MO30STANE uses one word for two situations. During sensor cooking, if the vapor reading is interrupted or never arrives, the program stops and ERROR shows; while setting the 12-hour clock, an impossible time also brings up ERROR.

What to do when ERROR shows on the microwave

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for ERROR on its microwaves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Touch STOP/CLEAR and enter the clock again in 12-hour form if you were setting it.

02

For sensor cooking, keep the door closed and leave STOP/CLEAR alone until the remaining time appears.

03

Wipe the dish and cavity dry and try again; for popcorn, a sensor miss just returns the display to the time of day.

04

If every sensor program ends in ERROR, cook by time and power and book a visit for the sensor.

It usually turns into microwave control board and touchpad repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

ERROR does not mean the microwave has stopped heating; timed cooking still works if only the sensor is involved. It is also different from SERVICE on the hood model, which reports a supply problem.

In Bertazzoni's own words

If the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking other foods, ERROR will be displayed, and the oven will turn off.

Questions
about ERROR.

Can I clear ERROR myself?
Touch STOP/CLEAR and enter the clock again in 12-hour form if you were setting it. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Why does my Bertazzoni microwave stop sensor cooking with ERROR?
The sensor reads steam from the food during the first stage. Opening the door or pressing STOP/CLEAR in that stage, or a dish that releases little steam, leaves it without a reading and it stops.
Why does my Bertazzoni microwave say ERROR when I set the time?
The clock runs from 1:00 to 12:59, so a 24-hour time is refused. Clear it and enter the 12-hour time.
How can I tell a bad sensor from a bad dish?
Try a covered cup of water on sensor reheat in a dry cavity. If that also ends in ERROR every time, book a visit to test the sensor.

Back to your everyday

Still showing ERROR?

Three details make the booking useful: the characters or beeps just as they appeared, every character of the model number, and whether a cup of water still warms up. With those, the technician arrives already halfway to the answer.
