Bertazzoni XV Wall Oven Message "Broil Does Not Work": Knob turned past broil

What Broil Does Not Work means

On Bertazzoni knob-controlled 30-inch electric wall ovens such as the F30PROXV, F30CONXV and double FD30PROXV, and on the matching self-clean dual-fuel DFS XT ranges, broil may seem dead because the temperature knob has been turned too far past the broil position, beyond 500F. When that happens the PRE-HEATING indicator lights on and off and the broil element does not come on as expected.

Common causes of Broil Does Not Work

Temperature control knob rotated beyond the broil position
Selector not set to the broil function
Knob loose on its shaft so it sits in the wrong place
Broil element or control that needs a technician's test

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Turn the temperature knob back to OFF. 2. Set the function selector to broil. 3. Turn the temperature knob slowly to the broil mark and stop there, not beyond 500F. 4. Leave the door as the instructions for broiling advise and watch whether the element glows red. 5. If the PRE-HEATING light still blinks and the element stays dark, call us.

! Why to stop there

Most of the time the fix is just the knob position, and a visit would be a waste.
If the element still does not glow, it carries line voltage and must not be tested by hand.
A knob that slips can look the same as a failed control, so we check the simple part first.
We quote in writing before any work and cover the repair for 30 days.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

Broil Does Not WorkBroil Does Not Work questions

Why is the PRE-HEATING light blinking when I broil?

On these ovens a blinking PRE-HEATING light with no broil can mean the knob was turned too far past the broil position. Return it to OFF, then turn it to the broil mark and stop.

What temperature is the broil setting on these ovens?

Broil is at the top of the knob scale, around 500F. Going further than that mark is what triggers the intermittent PRE-HEATING light, so stop right at the broil position.

My knob is in the right place and the broil still does not heat. What now?

Then the element or the control itself may have failed, which means a real repair. Turn the oven off and call us. We test it and give a written price first.
