How it is fixed
Normal. 'S' will NOT be displayed if the cycle was interrupted or the water could not reach the required temperature — if the customer reports a missing 'S', check the heating element, thermostat and cycle interruptions.

Can I keep using my AGA with code S?
A power cycle at the breaker (60 seconds) may clear a one-off code. If the code returns, stop using the affected zone or appliance and book service — continuing to run can turn a small fault into a board-level repair.
