What Controls Are Very Hot means

On current Bertazzoni PROF30FSEXV and similar built-in ovens, and on ranges such as the PRO366BCFGMXT, a control knob that gets too hot usually means the oven is being used with the door open. Heat then escapes forward over the panel. Keep the oven door shut when the oven is not in use and when grilling or broiling. The knobs may feel hot enough to be uncomfortable.

Common causes of Controls Are Very Hot

  • Cooking with the oven door open
  • Door left ajar after a previous use
  • Broiling with the door closed contrary to the instructions for the model
  • Door not seated because of an obstruction
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Turn the oven off and let the knobs cool before touching them. 2. Close the door fully and make sure nothing is caught in it. 3. Do not leave the door open to warm the kitchen. 4. Use the oven again with the door shut unless the instructions call for it open. 5. If the knobs still get hot with the door closed, call us.

! Why to stop there
  • Hot knobs can burn you and soften the plastic around them.
  • If the door is shut and the knobs still overheat, it points to airflow in the oven that needs a proper look.
  • Using the oven door open as a heater damages the controls over time.
  • We give a written price in advance and stand behind our 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.

Controls Are Very HotControls Are Very Hot questions
Why do my knobs get hot when I broil?

Broiling with the door open sends heat straight over the control panel. Follow the model's instructions and keep the door shut when grilling or broiling.

Is it safe to use the oven with hot knobs?

Let them cool first, since they can burn. Then close the door and use the oven again. If the knobs overheat even with the door closed, stop and call us.

Could the door itself be the problem?

Yes, if it does not close fully. Look for anything caught in the door, then check that it sits flat. If it still does not close properly, we can inspect the hinges.
