What E6160 Means
Thermador documents E6160 as the Zone Control lower spray arm reference position not being found.
Common Causes of E6160
- A mechanical obstruction preventing the lower spray arm mechanism from reaching its reference position
- A failed positioning sensor for the Zone Control feature
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
This is a documented mechanism-positioning problem; Thermador's own guidance is to contact support.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- The Zone Control spray-arm mechanism is an internal part needing a technician to inspect.
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.
