Range - Oven Error, Fault or Function Codes
"F2 For an unknown reason, the oven temperature has exceeded a preset
threshold."
So basically the temp overshot and tripped the safety limit.
“F— and a number or letter” flash in the display.
You have a function error code.
• Press the CLEAR/OFF pad. Allow the oven to cool for
one hour. Put the oven back into operation.
If the function code repeats.
• Disconnect all power to the oven for at least 30
seconds and then reconnect power. If the function
error code repeats, call for service.
