Reset first
Turn the oven’s breaker(s) off and leave them for a minute.
Turn them back on.
Watch the oven for a minute to see if F6 E1 returns.
Verify that the oven operates.
If the code comes back after the reset, arrange a technician visit.
What F6 E1 refers to
Two controls are named in the listing: the Appliance Manager Control and the Converter Control, with the wiring as a third possibility. The entry adds that various reasons are possible, and it carries no model list because it covers wall ovens as a whole.
Neighbouring codes
F6 E3 repeats the wording about the converter control, which makes it the closest match.
F6 E2 names the same controls, so compare the two displays carefully.
