• Accidental Activation: The demo mode might have been accidentally activated during the initial setup or during a power outage.
• Factory Setting: Sometimes, the range might be shipped from the factory with demo mode enabled.
• Software Glitch: A software glitch in the range’s control panel could also lead to demo mode activation.
