7 Troubleshooting
Interference with and repairs to the appliance by unqualified
persons are dangerous as they can result in an electric
shock or a short circuit. Do not interfere with or try to repair
the appliance; this could cause injury to persons and
damage to the appliance. Always have such work done by
an expert, e.g. a Customer Service technician.
Please note
If your appliance is faulty, please check whether you can
rectify the problem yourself by consulting these instructions
for use.
You may be able to rectify some problems yourself.
They are described below.
The fuses blow regularly?
Contact a technical customer service or an electrician!
Does the hob have tears or cracks?
There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob
develops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other
kind. Immediately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the
fuse immediately and call Customer Service.
You can't switch your induction hob on?
•
Has the wiring system (fuse box) in the house blown a
fuse?
•
Has the hob been connected to the mains?
•
Is the childproof lock activated, i.e. does the display
show an "L"?
•
Are the sensor keys partly covered by a damp cloth,
fluid or a metallic object? Please rectify.
•
Are you using unsuitable cookware? See the section on
Cookware for induction hobs.
The hob or a cooking zone has suddenly switched off
•
Did you accidentally press the ON/OFF key?
•
Are the sensor keys partly covered by a damp cloth,
fluid or a metallic object? A buzzer will sound briefly.
After a few seconds the appliance will switch off. Please
remove the item located in front of the sensor keys.
•
Has the safety cut-off device been activated, i.e. was a
power level operated unchanged beyond a specific
period of time? See the section on operation time limit.
The pot sign
appears?
•
A cooking zone has been switched on and the hob is
expecting a suitable pot or pan to be placed on the
cooking zone (pan recognition). Only when a pot has
been placed on the cooking zone will power be supplied.
The pot sign
still appears, even though a pot or pan
was placed on the hob?
•
The cookware is unsuitable for induction cooking or the
pot or pan is too small.
LED display for cooking settings and residual heat
display H does not come on or only partially.
•
Display defective. Call Customer Service. Risk of
burning, as the temperature warning is not guaranteed.

Error code E2 is indicated?
The electronic unit is too hot. Check the installation of the
hob. Make sure that there is sufficient ventilation. See the
section on "Protection against overheating".
Do not heat-up empty pots and use appropriate cookware.
Error code E8 is indicated?

call Customer Service.
Does the hob make noises (clicking or cracking noises)
or can a buzzing sound be heard when the hob is
switched on?
•
This is design-specific and has no influence on quality
and operation.
Does the cooling fan still operate after it has been
switched off ?
•
This is normal since the electronic unit is being cooled
down.
Is the cookware you are using making noises?
This is due to technical reasons; the induction hob and the
pot are not at risk.
disturbing noises appear:
Put the cookware centrically on to the respective
cooking zone.
Try to shift the cookware a little bit onto the cooking
zone.
When using 2 cooking zones in bridge mode, put the
cookware centrically on both cooking
zones (i.e. the coverage of both cooking zones should
be equal).
Ensure that there are no foreign bodies between the
glass ceramic and the cookware's bottom (e. g. salt
grains).
Ensure that a lid on top of the cookware is not able to
vibrate.
Try other cookware. Especially pots made of a
compound material may cause noises.
Avoid that 2 or more pots are touching each other.
Use cookware with flat bottom to avoid movement of the
cookware.
