What Does Error F Mean?
The Electrolux induction hob displays an error code F when it fails to detect suitable cookware on the active cooking zone. This can occur if the cookware is removed, is too small, or is not induction-compatible. A constant F upon installation may indicate an installation issue. Ensure the cookware is magnetic and properly sized for the cooking zone to resolve the issue.
Common Symptoms:
- F displayed on the hob screen when attempting to cook
- Hob deactivates the heating zone when the F code appears
- Occurs immediately on newer installations or when cookware is placed/removed
Possible Causes
- No cookware detected or cookware unsuitable for induction (high)
- Incorrect hob installation (constant F on first use) (medium)
