What F4 Means
Documented on both platforms as the electronics overheating, with all cooking zones switching off (broader than F2's single-zone shutoff).
Common Causes of F4
- Whole-unit electronics overheating from extended use across multiple zones
- Restricted airflow/ventilation beneath the cooktop
- A recurring cooling-system problem if this happens without heavy use
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Allow the electronics to cool fully, then touch a control element to resume once the error disappears.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- A code affecting every zone rather than one is worth mentioning to a technician if it recurs, since it suggests a broader cooling issue than a single overloaded zone.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
