o
Some pans make crackling
or clicking noises.
This may be caused by
the construction of your
pans where layers of
different metals vibrate
differently.
o
This is normal for
pans and does not
indicate a fault.
The induction hob makes a
low humming noise when
used on a high power level.
This is caused by the
technology of induction
cooking.
o
This is normal but
the noise should
lessen or disappear
when you decrease
the power level.
There is a fan noise coming
from the induction hob.
A cooling fan that is built
into your induction hob
has come on to prevent
the electronics from
overheating. It may
continue to run even
after you have turned the
hob off.
o
This is normal and
requires no action.
Do not switch the
power to the hob off
at the supply while
the fan is running.
Pans do not become hot
and a “U” symbol appears
in the display.
The induction hob cannot
detect the pan because it
is not suitable for
induction cooking.
The induction hob cannot
detect the pan because it
is too small for the
cooking zone or not
properly centred on it.
o
Use pans that are
suitable for
induction cooking.
o
Centre the pan and
make sure that its
base matches the
size of the cooking
zone.
The induction hob or a
cooking zone has turned
itself off unexpectedly. A
tone sounds and an error
code is displayed (possibly
alternating with one or two
digits in the timer display).
Technical fault.
o
Refer to the error
codes in the next
section and if the
fault cannot be
remedied call the
Customer Care
Department.
The residual heat indicator
has not come on after a
cooking zone has been
switched off.
The cooking zone has
only been turned on for a
short period of time and
therefore did not go
above 60°C.
o
No action required
but if the cooking
zone appears to be
hotter than 60°C
and the residual
heat indicator has
not come on, you
should call the
Customer Care
Department.
