# Fisher & Paykel stove showing A1

A1 on a Fisher & Paykel professional stove means the oven overheated.

## What A1 actually means.

A1 on a Fisher & Paykel professional stove means the oven overheated. The stove suspends oven functions, beeps five times and shows the code until it cools and the door unlocks.

What to do when A1 shows on the stove

### Kind of code Oven heating

The oven part of the stove was set to bake or broil and did not warm the way the controls expected, or took far too long to get there. On an electric stove a bake or broil element that has burned through is the everyday reason; on a gas stove the oven igniter and the valve it opens are looked at first. The wiring and the relay on the board are checked before the board itself is blamed.

### Usually leads to Stove oven heating repair

The oven part of a stove that stays cold, heats slowly or bakes too hot or too cool, fixed at the bake and broil elements, the oven igniter, the gas valve or the temperature sensor.

### Shows up as Oven on My Stove Runs Hot or Cold

Recipes take much longer or much less time than they should, cakes burn on the outside and stay raw inside, or an oven thermometer disagrees with the display by more than a little.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Fisher & Paykel's own guidance for A1 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Leave the oven closed and let it cool; do not switch the stove off at the wall, because the cooling fans need power.

02

Wait for the door to unlock and the A1 alert to clear by itself.

03

If A1 keeps coming back during normal cooking, book a visit.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [stove oven heating repair](https://stoverepair.center/services/stove-oven-heating-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

A1 does not ask you to cut the power. Fisher & Paykel says the fans must keep running to cool the oven and the cabinets around it.

## Questions about A1.

### Can I clear A1 myself?

Leave the oven closed and let it cool; do not switch the stove off at the wall, because the cooling fans need power. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Should I switch off my Fisher & Paykel stove when A1 appears?

No. The guide says to leave the power on unless told otherwise, because the cooling fans protect the oven and the cabinetry around it. Let it cool and the alert clears.

### Why did my Fisher & Paykel oven overheat during a normal bake?

Once after a very long high-heat cook can happen. If A1 appears during ordinary baking, the heat control or cooling needs checking.

### Can I use the burners on my Fisher & Paykel stove during an A1 alert?

The alert suspends oven functions. Let the oven cool and the door unlock before cooking again, and watch whether A1 returns.
