Possible Causes
Stuck child lock button, Firmware glitch in the control board, Faulty touch sensor for the lock icon, Corrupted control board memory
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal high-voltage work is needed for basic checks.
Reset and test:
- Consult the Bomann user manual for the specific model to confirm the child lock activation/deactivation sequence (often by holding a specific key for several seconds).
- Try to deactivate the lock by holding the lock symbol or a combination of keys for 3–5 seconds.
- Disconnect the oven from power for 5–10 minutes to reset the control board, then reconnect and test again.
- If the lock symbol remains and keys do not respond, the touch control panel or main control board may be faulty and require replacement.
