LG Range (Gas) PF error code
The PF code means your LG range detected a power interruption. This is most commonly caused by a power outage or a tripped circuit breaker. The range displays PF to let you know the previous operation did not complete normally. Pressing CLEAR/OFF and resetting the circuit breaker clears it in most cases. If PF keeps returning the unit will need a professional inspection.
