Possible causes
No power.
The controls are locked.
There may be a slight film of water
over the controls or you may be using
the tip of your finger when touching
the controls.
Rough-edged cookware.
Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or
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 centred
on it.
What to do
Make sure the induction hob 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 induction 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.
