Possible Causes

Stuck child lock button, Firmware glitch in control board, Faulty touch sensor for 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 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.
