# Bertazzoni LOCK: the microwave panel is locked

Bertazzoni's microwaves come from more than one platform, and each confirms the lock differently.

## What LOCK actually means.

Bertazzoni's microwaves come from more than one platform, and each confirms the lock differently. The KOTR30XV hood model prints LOCK, the MO30STANE built-in prints CHILD LOCK, and the KOTR24XV hood model and the MD24LX drawer light a locked icon.

What to do when LOCK shows on the microwave

### Kind of code Mode, not a failure

Something was switched on rather than something wearing out: a child or control lock set by a long press on the wrong pad, after which no key answers, a demo or showroom setting that lights the display and turns the plate while nothing warms, a Sabbath setting that dims the panel and mutes the beeps, or a clock left blinking after an outage that holds the keypad until it is set. No part is needed; a key sequence from the manual switches it off again.

### Usually leads to No repair

On the KOTR30XV, press Stop/Reset three times.

### Shows up as What a Microwave Error Code Is Telling You

A microwave error code may be a letter and a number on the display, a lock or demo word, a row of dashes, or a beep with a blinking clock, and it can show while the microwave still heats or block every key until it is cleared.

### Make Bertazzoni

A Bertazzoni microwave that has quit heating or started to spark gets a look in place, beginning with its model label and a cup of water.

### Source Bertazzoni KOTR30XV 30-inch microwave hood combination manual

KOTR30XV: LOCK. MO30STANE / MO30STANE24: CHILD LOCK. KOTR24XV and MD24LX drawer: a locked icon with a beep.

## Before you book, in this order.

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

01

On the KOTR30XV, press Stop/Reset three times.

02

On the KOTR24XV, press and hold STOP/RESET for three seconds; on the MD24LX drawer, hold CHILD LOCK for three seconds.

03

On the MO30STANE, touch HELP and then STOP/CLEAR.

04

If none of these releases the panel, book a visit to check the keypad and control board.

### Cleared?

The code has gone and a mug of water heats again without a new part. If it comes back this week, or the food starts coming out cold in the middle, mention in the booking that it came back.

### What not to do

The lock is a setting that blocks the keypad; it does not mean the board has failed. On the KOTR30XV it is set by pressing Start three times, so it can come on by accident while wiping the panel.

### Microwave hood combination

The microwave that hangs from the wall cabinets above the burners, heating food in its cavity while its own fan, light and filters handle the steam and grease rising from the pans beneath it.

Bertazzoni builds this

### Built-in microwave

A microwave set into a tall cabinet or a wall of cabinetry at eye level, either a countertop body wrapped in a trim kit or a true built-in model, including speed and convection microwaves that brown as well as heat.

Bertazzoni builds this

### Microwave drawer

A microwave built under a counter or into a kitchen island that opens like a drawer at the touch of a key, with a motor and gears sliding its cavity out toward you.

## Questions about LOCK.

### Can I clear LOCK myself?

On the KOTR30XV, press Stop/Reset three times.

### How did the lock get turned on on my Bertazzoni hood microwave?

On the 30-inch KOTR30XV it takes only three presses of Start, which is easy to do while cleaning or reheating in a hurry. Three presses of Stop/Reset undo it.

### Why will my Bertazzoni microwave drawer not respond to the Open key?

If the locked icon is lit, the drawer is in child lock and ignores the keys. Hold CHILD LOCK for three seconds until it beeps, then try Open again.

### Why does my Bertazzoni hood microwave fan not run when the panel is locked?

The lock is meant to stop the oven being turned on by accident, so clear it first and try the fan again. If the fan still does not run with the lock off, book a visit for the fan circuit.
