Problem
The hob switches off
while it is in use, an F
flashes in the timer
display and a tone
sounds.
The food in the pan
hardly heats up or does
not heat up at all when
the Auto heat-up
function is switched
on.
One or more residual
heat indicators are
flashing.
It is taking too long for
the contents of the pan
to come to the boil.

Possible cause
One or more of the
sensors have been
covered, e.g. by finger
contact, food boiling
over or by an object
such as an oven glove.
There is too much food
in the pan.
The pan is not
conducting heat
properly.
There was an
interruption to the
power supply during
operation, and the hob
has switched itself off.
The residual heat
indicators have lit up
while the programming
mode was being called
up.
Remedy
Clean the control panel or
remove the obstruction (see
"Safety switch-off").
Start cooking at the highest
power level and then turn
down to a lower one
manually later on.
Use a different pan.
No remedy necessary.
The hob can be used again.
Check how well the food is
cooked and if it has been
affected by the power failure
before switching the cooking
zone(s) back on again.
No remedy necessary.
The indicators will flash until
the maximum residual heat
time has elapsed or the
cooking zone is selected and
activated.
You can test the power level
of the cooking zone (see "To
test the power level").
