Main Control Board Power Supply Failure
F02
Oven display works but heating elements do not energize; relay clicking may be heard but no heat.
Relay Drive or Power Relay Failure on Main PCB
F03
Oven overheats or temperature is wildly inaccurate; it may shut down with an error after heating.

F06
Oven display or buttons are unresponsive; some keys work intermittently, and an error appears after a key press.
User Interface (Touchpad/Keypad) Communication Fault
F07
The oven trips the household breaker or RCD immediately or shortly after starting a heating cycle.
Heater to Earth Leakage or Short Circuit
F08
The grill function does not work; other oven modes may still operate, but an error appears when the grill is selected.
Grill Element or Grill Circuit Failure
F09
Fan oven mode is not heating; the fan runs but there is no temperature rise, and an error appears in fan mode only.
Fan Oven Element Circuit Fault
F10
The oven light and display work, but there is no heating on any function, and no relay click is heard.
Safety Thermostat (Thermal Cut-Out) Open
F11
The oven door will not lock for the pyrolytic/self-clean cycle, or an error appears when starting clean mode.
Door Lock Motor or Lock Switch Fault
F12
The display shows a communication error; the oven may be stuck in standby, or some functions may be disabled.
Communication Failure Between Display Board and Power Board
F13
The oven interior light is not working; an error may appear when turning the light on, but other functions are OK.
Oven Lamp Circuit Fault
F14
The clock cannot be set or loses time; the oven will not start cooking because the time is not set.
Electronic Clock / Timer Failure
F15
The oven fan does not run in fan mode; elements may overheat locally, and an error appears in fan-assisted functions.
Convection Fan Motor Failure
F16
The oven door is locked and will not open after a cycle; an error is displayed, and no mechanical release is visible.
Door Lock Stuck in Locked Position
F17
The display shows a probe or sensor error when using a meat probe or temperature probe accessory.
Meat Probe Sensor or Probe Jack Fault
F18
The oven shuts down mid-cycle with an error; the cooling fan may continue running, and the unit restarts after cooling.
Overtemperature Protection Triggered
F19
The display flickers, resets, or shows a low-voltage error when oven elements switch on.
Low Voltage or Power Supply Instability
F20
Function selector knob positions do not match actual functions, or an error appears when turning the knob.
Function Selector Switch Fault
Symptom
Control knobs are very stiff or difficult to turn, with a clicking or grinding feel.
Knob Shaft / Selector Mechanism Wear
Symptom
Excessive condensation or water droplets forming on oven door and control panel during cooking
Ventilation / Moisture Management Issue
Symptom
Oven door glass is loose, rattling, or has condensation between the panes.
Door Glass Assembly / Inner Seal Failure
Symptom
Oven door will not close fully, heat escapes, leading to poor cooking performance.
Door Alignment / Hinge Wear
Symptom
Oven emits a strong burning smell or smoke during use, especially on first use or after a long idle period.
Residue Burning / Insulation or Wiring Overheat
Symptom
Oven fan is very noisy, rattling, or scraping during operation
Fan Motor Bearing Wear or Fan Blade Obstruction
Symptom
Oven heats but does not reach the set temperature, food is undercooked, and no error code is displayed.
Underheating / Temperature Inaccuracy
Symptom
Oven interior light does not work, but heating and other functions are normal.
Lamp or Lamp Holder Failure
Symptom
Oven interior light stays on all the time, even when the door is closed and the oven is off.
Door Switch Stuck or Shorted
Symptom
Oven light works, but the fan and elements do not operate in any mode, and no error code is displayed.
Live Feed Loss to Functional Circuits
Symptom
Oven not heating at all on any function; light and fan may still work, but no error code is displayed.
Total Heating Failure
Symptom
Oven overheats, burning food even at low settings, and no error code is displayed.
Overheating / Thermostat Stuck Closed
Symptom
Oven trips RCD or breaker only when a specific function (e.g., grill) is selected, and no error code is displayed.
Function-Specific Earth Leakage
Symptom
The oven cavity enamel is chipped or rusting, exposing bare metal.
Cavity Enamel Damage
Symptom
The oven display is very dim or has partially missing segments, but the oven still heats.
Display Module Degradation
Symptom
The oven makes a loud bang or pop and then stops heating, sometimes with a visible flash inside.
Element Rupture / Short
Symptom
The oven timer counts down, but the elements do not switch off at the end of timed cooking.
Timer Output / Auto Mode Fault
Symptom
The oven will not start; the display shows the time, but there is no response when selecting temperature or function (no error code).
Child Lock or Timer Lockout / Control Inhibit
