Reset at the breaker
Shut off the breaker(s) for one (1) minute so the unit powers down. After that, turn the breaker(s) on again to power the unit up. Monitor the oven for one (1) minute and see whether the code returns. Finally, verify that the oven operates.
A returning code means it is time for a technician to check the oven.
