What to do if trouble occurs...
Never unscrew the appliance! Only a qualified technician should
perform repairs!!
However, there are some problems that you can handle yourself. First, check
and see if there have been any operating errors. Remember – repairs during
the warranty period are not free of charge if they are caused by operating
errors or non-observance of the following instructions:
If this dot blinks, it is an indication that the pan-on detection has developed
a defect. The cooking zone can still be operated with the pan-on detection
switched off.
Should you need to contact Customer service or order spare parts, always
quote the information printed on the model identification plate. It is located
underneath the control honeycomb. You will also find it stuck onto the front
page of the operating instructions enclosed.
