How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the cooker before cleaning or disassembly.

Reset procedure:

  • Unplug the unit for at least 5 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge.
  • Plug it back in and try a simple program like 'Reheat' or 'Steam' with water only.

Keypad and panel checks:

  • Wipe the control panel with a slightly damp cloth to remove grease or moisture. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the panel.
  • Check that no button appears physically stuck or depressed.

If 'Err' persists after a full power reset and panel cleaning, the control PCB or keypad membrane may be defective and require replacement.
