What to check, in order
- Try one reset
Electrolux suggests switching off for about a minute and reconnecting.
- Stop if it returns
Unplug it and don't use it until it's repaired.
When to call an engineer
If the reset doesn't clear it, book an engineer.
A repair visit will usually check the heating element, its temperature sensor and the wiring back to the control board.
- Note the model and serial number. They're on a label inside the door, around the door frame or on the back.
- Write down the exact code, and what the appliance was doing when it appeared.
- Check whether it's still under warranty. If it is, the repair may cost you nothing.
