Error codeF2

Understanding F2
F2 is a communication error. The Australian listing says the touch-enabled IC is communicating abnormally; the Canadian listing places it with F0 and F1. Neither listing limits it to certain models.
First steps
Use the Power button to restart.
If F2 is still on, interrupt power for 30 seconds through the plug or the circuit breaker, then restart.
Request service if the code remains visible.
Same-group codes
The instructions match those for F0 and F1, because all three are one communication group. For a touch held too long, see 5E.
