# SKS gas slide-in range showing Loc

Loc is the Lock Out feature on the SKS gas slide-in.

## What Loc actually means.

Loc is the Lock Out feature on the SKS gas slide-in. It locks the oven door and stops most oven and burner controls from turning on, while the timer and oven light still work; it is set and cleared by holding Probe for three seconds with the mode knob at Off.

What to do when Loc shows on the range

### Kind of code Mode, not a failure

Something the range was told to do, or a state it chose on purpose — a control lock, a Sabbath setting, a demo mode that lights the display but never heats, a pan warning on an induction zone. Nothing has worn out, and no part is needed.

### Usually leads to No repair

Set the oven mode knob to Off and press and hold Probe for three seconds to release Lock Out.

### Shows up as Range Control Panel Not Responding

The touch keys or knobs on the range do nothing, only some keys work, the display is blank or frozen, or it beeps without starting.

Lock Out and its Loc display are described in the UPSG3014ST gas slide-in manual.

## Before you book, in this order.

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

01

Set the oven mode knob to Off and press and hold Probe for three seconds to release Lock Out.

02

After a self-clean, allow up to an hour for the door to unlock as the oven cools.

### Cleared?

The range was set right without a new part. If the same message comes back while a burner or the oven is in use, or the range cuts out again, treat it as a new problem and book it.

### What not to do

Loc is not a failed latch. A door that stays locked long after the oven is cold is the case for a visit.

## What you may notice with it.

The range problems Loc tends to arrive with. Answer these at the range before anyone is booked.

SKS builds this

### Gas range

Open flames on top and a gas-fired oven below, all fed by one supply line behind the range and lit by igniters rather than a match.

SKS builds this

### Dual-fuel range

Gas burners on top and an electric oven below, the combination most professional-style ranges use, needing both a gas line and a 240-volt circuit.

SKS builds this

### Induction range

A glass top that heats the pan itself through copper coils and power boards, over an electric oven, with electronics doing almost all the work.

## In SKS's own words

> The Lock Out feature automatically locks the oven door and prevents most oven and cooktop controls from being turned on.

## Questions about Loc.

### Can I clear Loc myself?

Set the oven mode knob to Off and press and hold Probe for three seconds to release Lock Out.

### Why can't I light the burners on my SKS slide-in while Loc shows?

Lock Out blocks most oven and burner controls as well as the door. Release it with the Probe key and they work again.

### My SKS door stays locked after self-clean. Is that Loc?

The door stays locked until the oven cools, which SKS says can take up to an hour. If it is still locked after that, book a visit.
