According to the eHow website,
"press and hold the stop/clear button for 3 seconds to unlock the door."
(it's the same to lock the door in the first place.)

According to the Just Answer website, either press and hold the stop/clear button for 3 seconds or 5 seconds, (A beep will sound. The "DOOR LOCKED" will continue to flash until the oven door has completely unlocked and the lock icon light has cleared.) or you have to press the button 3 times quickly.

Here is what you do when the convection oven door locks automatically. Where the stop/clear button is, you will see a lock symbol that has a number 3 on it. hold the stop/clear button down for 5 seconds and it will unlock you convection oven.

u tru unplugging the oven ?

We had a quick power outage and when the power came back on it locked our older (1991) Kenmore electric oven model # 40889 / 40881. Went throought the manuel and nothing pertains to this problem. We have turned off the circuit breaker and turned back on, but nothing seems to unlock the door. Any suggestions would be GREAT!!!!!!!

Try pressing STOP/CLEAR, then pressing in and holding the door switch plunger for 6 seconds on the upper right hand corner of the door.

The www.managemyhome.com website has some troubleshooting options when the door wont unlock. Good luck. Also you can download the whole manual online it you have your model number. Mine was inside the drawer under the oven.

try turning off the circuit breaker, resetting the power sometimes trips the self clean latch to operate, youll need to push in the door light switch.(it will have to think the door is closed to operate)

The switch inside the door lock mechanism is stuck down making the unit think it is still locked.  the switched is located next to the hook that locks your door.
