E8 is an oven fan error on a range. The maker says to book a service repair.
Model compatibility: Fisher & Paykel reuses codes across series and model years, so E8 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
The manufacturer lists E8 on freestanding cookers as an oven fan error.
E8 gets one short description in the Fisher & Paykel freestanding cooker list: oven fan error. Fans inside a range oven move hot air around, and other entries show they also cool the cabinet and electronics. The source does not tell you which fan E8 refers to or how it failed.
Handling in the guide
No dedicated procedure exists for E8. It is one of the faults dealt with by the final catch-all, which just says to arrange a service repair. The advice is therefore short, and a power reset is not included.

Using the range for now
While the oven is hot, keep the door closed and let it cool unaided. The page cautions that cutting power to a hot oven can harm it and the cabinetry.
After it has cooled, hold off on baking or roasting until someone has examined it.
If the range includes an induction or hob section, nothing says it is affected. See that it behaves normally and pass on what you saw.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
