# Bosch induction range showing F1

On Bosch induction slide-ins, F1 and F6 mean a cooking zone got too hot and shut off to protect the glass.

## What F1 actually means.

On Bosch induction slide-ins, F1 and F6 mean a cooking zone got too hot and shut off to protect the glass. An empty or dry pan on high heat is a common trigger.

Bosch range display · also shown as F6

What to do when F1 shows on the range

### Kind of code Surface elements and induction

A radiant element, a coil or an induction zone did not heat the way the control expected, or ran hotter than it should. The pan, the switch behind the knob and the wiring to the element come first; on induction, the power board and the coil under the glass are checked next. A zone that will not switch off, or a crack in the glass, means the breaker goes off before anything else.

### Usually leads to Surface element and glass top repair

Electric zones that stay cold, run too hot or will not switch off, and cracked or damaged glass on radiant and induction models.

### Shows up as Range Surface Element Not Heating

One coil or glass-top zone on an electric range stays cold, heats only weakly, or will not respond while the others work.

### Make Bosch

### Gas range

Open flames on top and a gas-fired oven below, all fed by one supply line behind the range and lit by igniters rather than a match.

Bosch builds this

### Electric range

Coil elements or radiant elements under a smooth glass top, with an electric oven below, all running on a dedicated 240-volt circuit.

Bosch builds this

### Dual-fuel range

Gas burners on top and an electric oven below, the combination most professional-style ranges use, needing both a gas line and a 240-volt circuit.

## Questions about F1.

### Can I clear F1 myself?

Let the electronics cool down. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why did my Bosch zone show F1 while searing?

High heat for a long time can overheat the zone. It switches off to protect the glass and works again once cool.

### Is F6 on my Bosch induction range a repair?

Usually not. It is a protective shutoff; a zone that shows it often under light use should be checked.
