What to do when F0 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTouch controls and keys
A key on the glass was held down too long, pressed with nothing there, or stopped answering altogether. Water, a spill or a pan resting on the key strip is ruled out first, then the touch board and its ribbon cable. If a zone keeps heating while the keys are dead, switch the cooktop off at the breaker.
Usually leads toTouch control repair
Glass touch keys and sliders that ignore a finger, start zones by themselves or stay locked, traced to the keys, the control board or the lock setting.
Shows up asCooktop Controls Unresponsive
Touch keys or a slider do nothing, the display lights but ignores every press, or a knob turns without starting its burner or element.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Thermador's own guidance for F0 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Touch any key to acknowledge the code and keep cooking without MoveMode.
Note which zones and which pan you were using when MoveMode failed, so the technician can repeat it.
If F0 comes back every time you try the feature, book a visit and mention MoveMode.
What not to do
F0 does not stop the cooktop. It is limited to one feature.
