No (suitable) Cookware on Cooking Zone
This symbol will alternate with the selected temperature setting if you

No heating takes place unless there is a suitable pan on the cooking zone.
The cooktop will automatically turn off after 10 minutes if no suitable pan is placed on it.

Normal noises
These are produced by the technology of induction and do not indicate a fault. Examples
include:
Noise
Crackling or periodic clicking
Low humming (like a transformer)
Fan noise
Caused by using iron-plated cookware which has
layers of different metals. The different layers vibrate
slightly differently; this causes the noise in the
cookware.
This noise occurs when a high heat setting is used
(especially PowerBoost) and is caused by the large
quantity of energy transmitted from the induction
element to the cookware. The noise should quieten
down or disappear altogether when you decrease the
temperature setting.
The cooktop is equipped with a cooling fan to make
sure the electronics do not overheat. The fan may also
continue running after the cooktop has been turned off.
