Cleaning products being used.
This may be caused by the construction
of your cookware (layers of different metals
vibrating differently).
This is caused by the technology of
induction cooking.
A cooling fan built into your induction hob
has come on to prevent the electronics
from overheating. It may continue to run
even after you've turned the induction
hob off.
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 centered
on it.

What to do
Make sure the cooktop is
connected to the power supply and
that it is switched on.
Check whether there is a power
outage in your home or area. If
you've checked everything and the
problem persists, call a qualified
technician.
Unlock the controls. See section
'Using your ceramic cooktop' for
instructions.
Make sure the touch control area is
dry and use the ball of your finger
when touching the controls.
Use cookware with flat and smooth
bases. See 'Choosing the right
cookware'.
See 'Care and cleaning'.
This is normal for cookware and
does not indicate a fault.
This is normal, but the noise
should quieten down or disappear
completely when you decrease the
heat setting.
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.
Use cookware suitable for induction
cooking. See section 'Choosing the
right cookware'.
Centre the pan and make sure that
its base matches the size of the
cooking zone.
