- Breaker tripped or was switched off
- Range was unplugged
How to fix the PF code

Press Clear/Off to clear PF from the display.
Step 2: Set the clock

When to call a technician
No repair is needed. If PF keeps appearing without any outage, have an electrician check the breaker and the range power connection.
Models this applies to
- Electric and gas ranges (LRE, LRG, LSE, LSG series)
- InstaView and ProBake slide-in ranges
- Induction ranges (LSIL, LSIS series)
- Single and double wall ovens (WSEP, WDEP series)
Codes can differ slightly between models. Your owner's manual is the final word and is available from LG support.
Common questions
›Will a cooking program continue after PF?
No. Any cooking or self clean in progress is cancelled. Clear the code and start again.
›Why does PF show when nothing else in my house lost power?
The range may have a loose power connection or a weak breaker. Have an electrician check it.
