Can’t open your oven because of the child lock? Don’t fret! This guide will help you unlock your oven in no time, even if you don’t remember the brand.
Most ovens unlock with just a button press. Look for a button with a picture of a lock or the word “Lock” on it. If you find one, just hold your finger on that button for a few seconds, usually around 3 to 5 seconds. If a lock picture disappears from the screen, then you’re all set!
Here’s how to do it for some popular brands:
Bosch: Look for a button with a lock symbol or the word “Lock” near the oven display. Hold it down for a few seconds (around 4) until the lock icon disappears.
Samsung: Find a button with a “Lock” symbol or the word “Lock.” Press and hold it for a few seconds (usually 3-5) to unlock.
LG: Locate the “Child Lock” button. Hold it down for a few seconds (around 3) to turn it off.
GE: Look for a “Lock” button or a symbol with a key. Press and hold it for a few seconds to disable the child lock.
Whirlpool: These ovens might use a combination button press. Check your user manual for the specific buttons to press together for your model.

Can’t find a lock button? Your oven might be different. Try looking for a button that says “Child Lock” instead. Hold that button down for a few seconds too and see if it unlocks the oven.
Check your user manual: It will have the exact steps for your oven model.
Look for a lock symbol: Many ovens show a lock symbol when the child lock is on.
Try a button combo: If no single button works, try holding two buttons together as per your manual.
Reset as a last resort: Consult your manual for oven reset instructions. This will unlock the door but might erase settings and timers.
