What L
actually means.
L on the power displays shows that the induction zones have been locked, which Bertazzoni offers to keep children from switching them on. With all zones off, turning the zone 1 and zone 2 knobs to the left at the same moment sets the lock, and doing it again releases it.

What to do when L shows on the stoveKind of codeMode, not a failure
Something the stove was switched into, often by accident, rather than something that broke: a control lock pressed while wiping the panel, a Sabbath setting, a showroom demo mode that lights the display and heats nothing, a reminder that a spot on the stovetop is still hot. No part is worn out, and the stove's own keys put it right.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for L on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Make sure all zones are off.
Turn the zone 1 and zone 2 knobs left together, hold until the L clears, and let go.
Set the zone you want as usual.
Cleared?
The stove is working again and no part was needed. If the same letters come back while a burner or the oven is on, or the stove switches itself off again in the middle of dinner, book it as a new problem.
What not to do
L is not a failed knob or control board. It is a safety lock that is easy to set by accident while cleaning the knobs.
