Electrolux Induction Cooktop H Display

H in a zone display is normally the hot-surface indicator after cooking. Electrolux’s service manual lists a steady H when the zone is cold and switched off as a temperature sensor defect.

What H Means

H in a zone display is normally the hot-surface indicator after cooking. Electrolux’s service manual lists a steady H when the zone is cold and switched off as a temperature sensor defect.

Common Causes of H

  • Residual heat (normal)
  • Zone temperature sensor failure (if the zone is cold)

🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try

Wait for the glass to cool. If H stays on a zone that has not been used for hours, book service.

⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That

  • Sensors are under the glass.
  • H on a cold zone suggests the sensor readings are unreliable.

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.
