outage in your home or area. If
you’ve checked everything and the problem persists, call a

Some pans make crackling
or clicking noises.

construction of your cookware
(layers of different metals
vibrating differently).
This is normal for cookware and
does not indicate a fault.
The induction hob makes a
low humming noise when
used on
a high heat setting.
This is caused by the technology
of induction cooking.
This is normal, but the noise should quieten down or
disappear completely when you decrease the heat
setting.

induction hob.
A cooling fan built into your
induction hob has come on to
prevent the electronics from
overheating. It may continue to

This is normal and needs no action. Do not switch the
power to the induction hob off at the wall while the fan is
running.

The induction hob cannot
detect the pan because it is not

‘Choosing the right cookware’.
Centre the pan and make sure that its base matches the
size of the cooking zone.
