Before you book,
in this order.

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

01

Keep hands, cloths and anything heat-sensitive off the zone until H clears.

Cleared?

The range was set right without a new part. If the same message comes back while a burner or the oven is in use, or the range cuts out again, treat it as a new problem and book it.

What not to do

H does not mean the zone is still switched on or failing to turn off.

What you may
notice with it.

The range problem H tends to arrive with. Answer these at the range before anyone is booked.

All problems

No repair indicated

Nothing to repair.

Something the range was told to do, or a state it chose on purpose — a control lock, a Sabbath setting, a demo mode that lights the display but never heats, a pan warning on an induction zone. Nothing has worn out, and no part is needed.

In La Cornue's own words

the symbol [ H ] indicates this on the display.

Questions
about H.

Can I clear H myself?
Keep hands, cloths and anything heat-sensitive off the zone until H clears.
Why does H show on my La Cornue Château after I switched the whole plate off?
La Cornue marks every zone that is still hot with H, whether you turned off one zone or the entire plate. Each H clears when that area is safe to touch.
Is it a problem if H lingers on my Château for a long time?
No. H is a safety marker, and La Cornue asks you not to touch the zones or set anything heat-sensitive on them while it shows.

Back to your everyday

Still showing H?

Book with the code exactly as it appears, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or scorching — with a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
