Hints and Tips

Problem
The induction hob
cannot be turned on.
The touch controls are
unresponsive.
The touch controls are
difficult to operate.
The glass is being
scratched.
How?
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner while the
glass is still warm (but not hot!)
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth
or paper towel.
4. Switch the power to the cooktop
back on.
Remove these immediately with a fish
slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper
suitable for Induction glass cooktops, but
beware of hot cooking zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off at
the wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle
and scrape the soiling or spill to a cool
area of the cooktop.
3. Clean the soiling or spill up with a
dish cloth or paper towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for 'Everyday
soiling on glass' above.
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Soak up the spill
3. Wipe the touch control area with a
clean damp sponge or cloth.
4. Wipe the area completely dry
with a paper towel.
5. Switch the power to the cooktop
back on.
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.
• When the power to the cooktop is switched
off, there will be no 'hot surface' indication
but the cooking zone may still be hot! Take
extreme care.
• Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers
and harsh/abrasive cleaning agents may
scratch the glass. Always read the label to
check if your cleaner or scourer is suitable.
• Never leave cleaning residue on the
cooktop: the glass may become stained.
• Remove stains left by melts and sugary
food or spillovers as soon as possible. If left
to cool on the glass, they may be difficult to
remove or even permanently damage the
glass surface.
• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is
retracted, the blade in a scraper is razor-
sharp. Use with extreme care and always
store safely and out of reach of children.
• The cooktop may beep and turn itself off,
and the touch controls may not function
while there is liquid on them. Make sure
you wipe the touch control area dry before
turning the cooktop back on.
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'.
