# ILVE induction zone showing H

Turn off an ILVE induction zone and its display reads 0 for three seconds, then changes to H if that spot is still hot.

## What H actually means.

Turn off an ILVE induction zone and its display reads 0 for three seconds, then changes to H if that spot is still hot. H is only there to warn about leftover heat.

ILVE stove display · also shown as [H], (H)

What to do when H shows on the stove

### Kind of code Mode, 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.

### Usually leads to No repair

Keep away from that zone until the H disappears.

### Shows up as Stove Error Code

The stove shows letters and numbers, a flashing symbol or a short message, beeps, and the oven or a burner stops or will not start.

### Make ILVE

An Italian family firm from the Padua area whose stoves come in a wide choice of sizes and colors.

## Before you book, in this order.

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

01

Keep away from that zone until the H disappears.

02

Keep children's hands and dish towels away from it.

03

No repair is needed.

### 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

An H does not mean the zone is still on or has jammed. It is showing heat left in the glass after cooking.

## What you may notice with it.

The stove problems H tends to arrive with. Answer these at the stove before anyone is booked.

## Questions about H.

### Can I clear H myself?

Keep away from that zone until the H disappears.

### Why does my ILVE show 0 and then H when I turn a zone off?

The manual describes exactly that: 0 for three seconds, then H while the area is still hot. It is normal.

### Is my ILVE zone still heating while H shows?

No. The zone is off; H only warns that the glass has not cooled yet.

### My ILVE H never clears even when cold. What now?

If H stays on a plainly cold top, the zone's sensing may be off. Note the zone and book a visit.
