# Bertazzoni refrigerator showing E6

E6 means the refrigerator has a communication problem, which is how Bertazzoni's table words it.

## What E6 actually means.

E6 means the refrigerator has a communication problem, which is how Bertazzoni's table words it. The manual does not say which boards are involved, only that the appliance can keep cooling and that a technician should be contacted. Controls or display may behave oddly while it shows.

Bertazzoni refrigerator display

What to do when E6 shows on the refrigerator

### Kind of code Communication

Two boards that stopped hearing each other — the main control and the display, or the inverter. A harness is checked before a board.

### Usually leads to Controls and sensors

A refrigerator cools to what it believes the temperature is, and a sensor reading wrong is obeyed perfectly.

### Shows up as Refrigerator Control Panel Not Responding

Buttons do nothing, the display is blank or frozen, or settings will not hold.

### Make Bertazzoni

Italian refrigeration sold alongside the range line, mostly built-in and integrated.

### Source Bertazzoni User and Installation Manual, RFD36FZNX / RFD36FZNW French door refrigerator (us.bertazzoni.com), code table, E6 row

Bertazzoni's 36-inch freestanding French door refrigerator RFD36FZNX / RFD36FZNW. Bertazzoni's other refrigerator manuals do not use this table.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for E6 on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Write down the code and the model number.

02

Check that both compartments are still cold with a thermometer.

03

Note anything else odd on the panel, such as buttons not responding, to pass on.

04

Book a visit and mention E6.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [controls and sensors](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/services/controls-and-sensors/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

It is not a cooling failure on its own. The table lists it as a communication problem while cooling continues.

## What you may notice with it.

The refrigerator problem E6 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the refrigerator before anyone is booked.

### French door refrigerator

Two fresh-food doors over a freezer drawer — the most common premium layout, and the one with the most to go wrong at the door line.

## Questions about E6.

### Can I clear E6 myself?

Write down the code and the model number. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why are the buttons on my Bertazzoni acting odd with E6?

E6 is a communication problem, and the controls or display may behave strangely while it shows. The manual does not say which boards are involved. Note any odd panel behavior to pass on.

### Can my Bertazzoni still cool with E6 showing?

Yes, the table lists it as a communication problem while cooling continues. Confirm with a thermometer that both compartments stay cold. A technician should still be contacted.
