9 common errors when using induction cookers and how to fix them

9 common errors when using induction cookers and how to fix them Picture 1

Error code E0 (long intermittent beep)

The main cause of this error is because the pot cannot be used on the induction stove, so the stove does not recognize the pot. Another cause is because the pot has a bottom diameter smaller than 1/2 of the induction ring of the stove causing the stove to not work.

Solution: Replace a new pot suitable for the induction cooker.

Error code E1 - induction cooker is overheating

The induction cooker is cooking for a long time at high capacity, then gives a warning, then stops working because the fan cannot cool the entire cooker in time.

At that time, what you need to do is turn off the stove immediately but do not unplug the power source so that the fan continues to work, remove the pot from the stove and, if possible, use an external electric fan to cool down the stove. After about 30 minutes, you can continue cooking.

Error code E2 - electricity is too strong

The cause of this error is that the power network you are using is unstable and higher than the normal voltage level, causing the power sensor to automatically disconnect the power and report an error.

To fix this, you should use a voltage stabilizer with 220V output to have a stable power source.

Error code E3 - the power supply to the induction cooker is too weak

The reason may be due to peak electricity usage hours. If this situation often occurs, you should equip a voltage stabilizer for your induction cooker.

Error code E4 (intermittent beep)

The cause of this error is due to overload of electricity or the temperature of the pot on the stove is too high. Depending on the sensor design of each type of stove, the overload temperature of the induction stove will be different.

The way to solve the E4 error of the induction stove is to turn off the stove and let the stove cool for at least 30 minutes.

Error code E5

The sensor resistor (IGBT) of the stove is overheating due to the cooking temperature being too high.

Solution: You should turn off the stove and let it cool down as to solve error E1.

Error code E6 (urgent beep)

This error is due to a problem with the induction cooker's heat sensor (loose, turned off) or the pot bottom temperature is too high.

Solution: Turn off the stove, ventilate around the stove, wait for the stove to cool down before continuing to cook.

If the stove's sensor is burned out, or cannot be processed, you can go to a reputable home induction stove repair address in Hanoi for support.

EF error code

This induction stove error occurs when the stove surface is wet, causing the stove to not be able to heat the pot to cook food.

The solution is to turn off the stove immediately and use a soft towel to gently wipe the stove surface until it's dry and you can cook again.

AD error code

The AD error of an induction cooker occurs because there is an obstacle between the pot and the stovetop or the bottom of the pot is not flat so it does not have much contact with the stovetop.

How to handle: Remove obstructions and clean the stove surface and bottom of the pot. If the bottom of the pot is not flat, replace it with a new pot that is more suitable!
