How do you remove the child lock?

I have not been able to find the user manual online for this model, but I found the manual for a newer model online which said to press and hold the Stop/Clear button for 3 seconds until the word 'Lock' goes away. Problem is, the word 'Lock' only comes up when you press any other button besides Stop/Clear and goes away as soon as you release the button. I have tried pressing it repeatedly, pressing and holding it repeatedly, pressing and holding it for 1 minute +...all to no avail? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

It sounds like your membrane keypad may be shorted.

If you'll contact me with the full model number from your tag, I'll give you all the information you would need. In many cases, this is a do-it-yourself repair.

I also need another manual so I can figure out how to take off the child lock from my microwave oven. It got turned on by accident and I'm not sure how to get it working again. It is a LGMS2348H...

First of all, thank you very much for choosing FIXYA today for your online technical support needs.


I'm Joe, and I will be more than happy to assist you with your service request.


See page 7 of the user's manual for detailed instructions on how to opearte the CHILD LOCK feature on your microwave oven.


Basically you just hold down the STOP / CLEAR button for a few seconds until the oven beeps and the "L" on the display disappears. This indicates that the CHILD LOCK is disengaged.




Here is a direct link to the ONLINE USER'S MANUAL for that model:


http://www.lg.com/sg/support/product/support-product-profile.jsp?customerModelCode=MS2348H&matchedModelCode=3200004987&searchEngineModelCode=MS2348H&initialTab=warranty&targetPage=support-product-profile#



To view the Owner's Manual with Operating Instructions just use your mouse to click on the link, which is the underlined and blue highlighted section of text just above.


When you get to the LG Support page just click on the MANUALS AND DOCUMENTS tab, then click on the OWNER'S MANUAL - ENGLISH (4,020K) button underneath the ADOBE ACROBAT PDF column. Then select OPEN FILE when prompted.


This will open a new web browser page automatically for you and allow you to view the information at the website indicated and the contents of the Owner's Manual.


You may need ADOBE READER installed on your computer to read PDF documents, although many computers already have this utility pre-installed.


You can always download this for free at WWW.ADOBE.COM if necessary. Click on the DOWNLOAD ADOBE READER button on right side of the ADOBE home page when you get there, then follow the onscreen instructions to install the software on your computer.


Please COMMENT back here to this page if you have any details to add, have any questions, have difficulty accessing the links, or just require further general assistance and I will respond as soon as I see it.


If you were satisfied with the service provided, could you please take a moment to leave a 5 STAR rating. Your feedback is very important and I truly appreciate your consideration.


Be sure to use the small blue ADD A COMMENT button located just below the text of this solution to leave any additional comments for me regarding this particular issue and I will respond right away.


I truly hope that was helpful to you.


Good luck and take care.


Joe.

My mother mistakenly locked her samsung microwave. She can't figure out how to unlock it and she can't tell me what model it is. Can you help?

On a friend's Samsung (she didn't tell me her model number either), you lock the keypad by pressing "0" and then "2". Press the same sequence to unlock the pad. Maybe this will work on her model.

Lock function reset for model JMV8208BAS

The first thing I would suggest is a hard reset. Unplug the unit for a minute or so. Then plug it back in, set the clock and try again.

If that doesn't work, leave it unplugged for about 5 minutes. Then let us know if the hard reset does not fix it.

The owner's manual is online here and it covers the child lock:

To set the child lock.
Touch and hold
ENTER/START
pad more than 3
seconds. CHILD
LOCK ON will
appear in the display
window with two
beeps.

To cancel the child
lock.
Touch and hold
ENTER/START
pad more than 3
seconds. LOCKED
will disappear and
you hear two beeps.

We're happy to help you with free advice and we'd appreciate your thoughtful rating of our answer.

Error message "chiLd"

There is a Child Safety lock-out feature on some microwave ovens. This enables the user to lock the keypad to prevent children from playing with the control panel. The model number you have this question posted under has this feature enabled/disabled by pressing and holding the "CLEAR/OFF" button for 3 seconds. However, the display reads "LOC" when the feature is activated. I suspect your model number is different because of the display indication you are receiving. Review your owner/operator manual for how to disable the child lock feature. If you no longer have the owner's manual, or if you still have questions, please post back with your BRAND NAME and MODEL NUMBER, so that I may be able to provide you with better assistance. I hope this helps you.

CHILD SAFETY LOCK

If the model number you have this question posted under is correct, to cancel the child lock safety feature all you need to do is press and hold the zero "0" button for at least 4 seconds. The "LOCKED" indication will go away and you should hear two beeps. The instructions are listed on page 11 of the owner's manual. If you no longer have a manual, you can download or print a copy for FREE at managemyhome.com. Just type in your model number under the "Manuals" link.

If you have questions, or if your model number is different, please let me know. I hope this helps you.
