What Locked, Lock or Loc means

On JennAir electric, gas and dual-fuel ranges with electronic oven control, such as the JES1750FS or JGRP430WP, Locked, Lock or Loc means the oven lock feature is on. It shuts down the control pads and locks the oven door to avoid unintended use. The lock is preset unlocked but can be locked. If the oven is in use, the controls and door cannot be locked. Before locking, make sure the oven and timer are off.

Common causes of Locked, Lock or Loc

  • The oven lock feature was turned on on purpose
  • The lock was activated by accident
  • A forgotten lock after a self-clean or cleaning
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Make sure the oven and timer are off. 2. Touch and hold the lock key as your owner's manual describes to unlock the control. 3. Wait for Locked, Lock or Loc to leave the display and the door to release. 4. If it will not unlock, call us.

! Why to stop there
  • The lock is a normal setting, so a visit would waste your money.
  • The door stays locked by design while the lock is on.
  • If the unlock fails, we check the control and quote first.
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

Locked, Lock or LocLocked, Lock or Loc questions
Why won't the oven door open?

The lock feature also locks the oven door. Unlock the control, and the door releases. Do not force the door while the lock is still active.

Can I lock it while cooking?

No. If the oven is currently in use, the controls and door cannot be locked. Turn the oven and timer off first, then use the lock key.

It says Loc and nothing responds. Is it broken?

Probably not. It is the lock. Try the unlock key as your manual describes, and if it still does not respond after a power reset, call us.
