What A2
actually means.
A2 means the door could not be locked after a Self Clean cycle was started. The lock has to return to its starting position before the cycle can be tried again.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Fisher & Paykel's own guidance for A2 on its ovens. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the power to the oven off at the wall and back on.
Wait about 10 seconds so the door lock returns to its starting position.
Set the clock again.
Close the door firmly and start Self Clean again; book a visit if A2 returns.
