Error codePr E
ApplianceRange
Quick answer
Pr E on a Samsung range means the oven is still heating up to the temperature you set. It is not a fault.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so Pr E may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Preheating: the oven is heating to the set temperature; not a fault.
Seeing Pr E on your Samsung range does not mean something is broken. The code tells you the oven is preheating toward the temperature you selected.
What to do while Pr E shows
Leave the oven door closed. Pr E stays on the display until the oven reaches the set temperature, and then it disappears on its own. Opening the door in the meantime only gets in the way of the preheat.
S-01 is a safety shutoff after the oven has run for a long time at one setting.
tESt means the range is in Demo mode and will not heat.
