Are you trying to cook with an empty pan/pot?" url: "https://jennairmiami.support/error-codes/error-code-e2-cooktop/" date_modified: "2026-08-24" Appliance type: "Cooktops and rangetops" --- # JennAir induction cooktop error code E2 ### What JennAir publishes for E2 on a induction cooktop The cooktop is too hot. Are you trying to cook with an empty pan/pot? The control panel switches off because of excessively high temperatures. The internal temperature of the electronic parts is too high. Wait for the cooktop to cool down before using it again. If you have placed an empty pan or pot on one of the cooking areas and started the cooktop, it may trigger this error code. Add food or liquid Move the pan/pot to the cooking area and start the cooktop. Those are the maker’s words, taken off its own support page for this condition on a induction cooktop. We have not improved them and we have not paraphrased them into something that sounds more certain. Everything below this line is ours, and it is written from what this equipment does in a Miami kitchen rather than in a manual. ### Try this before you book anything What follows is JennAir’s own list for E2 on a induction cooktop, not ours, and it is worth the five minutes it takes. A fair number of these end the whole thing at no cost, which is the reason this archive is here to be read rather than behind a booking form. - Turn off the burner - Remove the pan/pot - Power unit down by turning off the circuit breaker(s) for one (1) minute. - Power up the unit by turning on the circuit breaker(s). - Wait for the cooktop to cool down before using it again. - Monitor the cooktop for one (1) minute to ensure the error code does not display again. - Verify cooktop operation. ### Where to go from here The same number is published for the [undercounter refrigerator](https://jennairmiami.support/error-codes/error-code-e2-refrigerator/), [wine cellar](https://jennairmiami.support/error-codes/error-code-e2-wine-cellar/) as well, and it means something different on each of them. Go to the page for the machine in front of you rather than the one that came up first — which is exactly why no title in this archive is a bare number. And one thing this archive says on every page rather than burying: **the number is not this badge’s property.** JennAir runs the same control platform as the other names in its corporate group, and the page for E2 sits at the same address under more than one of them. Far from awkward, that is the most useful fact here: **the code names the subsystem and the model number names the machine.** Which makes the plate inside your door frame half of every answer on this site. Every other condition is in the [JennAir code archive](https://jennairmiami.support/error-codes/), searchable by number. Send us the model number and the display exactly as it reads and you will hear what it points at before anything is booked. We are independent and we work across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach.
