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.

What to do when H 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.
Usually leads toNo repair
Keep away from that zone until the H disappears.
Shows up asStove Error Code

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.
Keep away from that zone until the H disappears.
Keep children's hands and dish towels away from it.
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.

Book with the code written exactly as the stove shows it, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or hot wiring — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
