On the 36-inch Fisher & Paykel induction cooktop with integrated ventilation, FILTER lights and G shows for the first ten seconds after switch-on when the grease filter needs cleaning. The alert is off by default and has to be turned on.

What to do when G shows on the cooktop

### Kind of code Cooling fan and downdraft

The fan that pulls air through the electronics under an induction top, or the blower behind a downdraft vent, turned slower than the control expected or would not stop. A drawer packed tight against the chassis, a greasy filter and a loose plug come first; a worn motor or its speed sensor comes after.

### Usually leads to Cooling fan and downdraft repair

The fan that cools an induction or touch-control cooktop's boards, and the downdraft vent that rises behind the cooking surface or pulls air down between the burners.

### Shows up as Cooktop Fan Runs Constantly

The cooling fan under an induction or touch-control cooktop keeps running long after cooking, or a downdraft blower will not shut off or retract.

## Questions about G.

### Can I clear G myself?

Clean the grease filter and refit it as the user guide describes. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does G flash on my Fisher and Paykel cooktop for a few seconds?

On the model with built-in ventilation, G and FILTER signal that the grease filter needs cleaning.

### I cleaned the filter but FILTER is still lit. What now?

Make sure the filter is seated correctly and clear the alert by holding the filter key. If it stays, book a visit.

### Why does G show only briefly on a Fisher and Paykel CID364DTB4 cooktop?

Fisher & Paykel shows G for the first 10 seconds after switch-on, with FILTER lit, when the grease filter needs cleaning. The short display is a reminder, and the cooktop keeps working.
