Remove the pan and let the zone cool. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Did an empty pan cause F1 on my Thermador? An empty or dry pan on high heat can overheat the zone quickly. Give the zone a few minutes to cool before you use it. ### Can I use other zones on my Thermador after F6? Yes, the code shuts off the one zone. ### F1 keeps returning on my Thermador with a normal pan. What now? The zone's sensor may be reading high.
