How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect from mains before opening the housing.

  • Soft reset: Unplug the cooker for 10–15 minutes. Press and hold the Start/Stop or Keep Warm button (if possible) while plugging back in to force a reset on some models.
  • Check connectors: Remove the top or front panel to access the control board. Reseat all ribbon cables and connectors (keypad, display, sensors, heater).
  • Inspect keypad: If some buttons do not respond or are stuck, clean around the touch panel. For membrane keypads, check for cracks or moisture under the overlay.
  • Test operation: Reassemble and test a basic program. If 'Err' reappears, the control board or keypad assembly may need replacement.
