--- title: "SKS rangetop sous vide knob showing HS" description: "What HS means on SKS rangetop sous vide knobs, what to check before booking, and when it is not a failure at all." url: "https://cooktoprepair.center/error-codes/sks-hs/" --- # SKS rangetop sous vide knob showing HS HS on the sous vide knob is an alert, not an error: the water in the bath is very hot. ## What HS actually means. HS on the sous vide knob is an alert, not an error: the water in the bath is very hot. SKS's response is to let the water cool before you handle the water bath. SKS cooktop display What to do when HS shows on the cooktop ### Kind of code Mode, not a failure A state the cooktop was put in, or one it picked deliberately — a child lock, a demo mode that lights the keys but heats nothing, a residual-heat letter over a zone that is still warm, a prompt that no pan has been found. Nothing has broken and no part is called for. ### Usually leads to No repair Leave the water bath alone until it cools. ### Shows up as Cooktop Hot Surface Light Stays On The hot surface light or residual heat indicator stays lit long after the glass has cooled, or it never comes on at all. ### Make SKS Signature Kitchen Suite, LG's luxury label, lists gas and dual-fuel professional rangetops, some with induction and sous vide. ### Source SKS SKSRT360SIS/SKSRT480SIS rangetop owner's manual SKS dual-fuel pro rangetops SKSRT360SIS and SKSRT480SIS, which combine gas burners with an induction section and a sous vide module. The codes appear on the LED ring of the knob. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from SKS's own guidance for HS on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Leave the water bath alone until it cools. 02 Keep children and pets away from the water bath while HS shows. 03 If HS stays on with the water cool, book a visit. ### Cleared? The cooktop came right without a new part. If the same message returns while a zone or burner is on, or the top shuts itself down again mid-meal, treat it as a fresh problem and book it. ### What not to do HS is not the induction hot-surface indicator and not an error code. It does not mean the sous vide module has failed; the water is simply very hot. ## What you may notice with it. The cooktop problems HS tends to arrive with. Answer these at the cooktop before anyone is booked.

Leave the water bath alone until it cools. ### Is it safe to drain the SKS sous vide bath while HS shows? No. SKS says to let the water cool before handling the bath. ### Why did my SKS sous vide beep before HS appeared? The module also beeps when it runs without enough water. Keep the level between the Max and Min lines. ### When does HS go out on an SKS sous vide module? SKS ties the alert to very hot water in the bath, so it should clear once the water has cooled. If it stays lit with cool water, book a visit. --- **[Read on the site: SKS rangetop sous vide knob showing HS](https://cooktoprepair.center/error-codes/sks-hs/)** **[Book a visit with CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/schedule/)**
