What does Smeg E01 mean?

Smeg shows E01 as a communication error. The display title reads "COMMUNICATION ERROR" with the instruction "CHECK POWER BOARD". The control electronics have lost reliable communication with the power board that drives the oven's heating and steam functions, so the cycle cannot run normally until the link is restored.

What does Smeg E02 mean?

Smeg shows E02 as a firmware version error. The display title reads "WRONG FW VERSION" with the instruction "UPDATE POWER BOARD".

What does Smeg E03 mean?

Smeg shows E03 as a water-pressure fault. The display title reads "NO WATER PRESSURE" with the description "CYCLE STOPPED". The oven has not detected adequate water supply pressure for steam or washing functions, so it halts the running cycle to protect the appliance until the water supply is restored.
