Care and maintenance 31 Product support 6 Product support Help is always at hand Troubleshooting If you still have a problem with your appliance after checking these basic troubleshooting steps, please contact an authorised service person or qualified technician. Problem Possible Cause Solution Hob control card’s display is blacked out. The hob or cooking zones cannot be switched on. There is no power supply. Check the household fuse for the appliance. Check whether there is a power cut by trying other electronic appliances. The hob switches off while it is in use and an 'F' flashes on each display. The controls are damp or an object is resting on them. Dry the controls or remove the object. The hob switches off while it is use. One of the cooking zones has been on for too long. You can use the cooking zone again by switching it back on. The hob controls are not working and the child lock LED is on. Child lock is active. Switch off the child lock. The saucepans make noise during cooking or your hob makes a clicking sound during cooking. This is normal with induction hob cookware. This is caused by the transfer of energy from the hob to the cookware. This is normal. There is no risk, neither to your hob nor to your cookware. The 'U' symbol lights up in the display of one of the cooking zones. There is no pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is unsuitable. Use a suitable pan. Power level 9 or 'P' is automatically reduced. If you select power level 'P' or 9 on two cooking zones, which are on the same side, at the same time. Maximum power level for the two zones is reached Operating both zones at power level 'P' or 9 would exceed the permitted maximum power level for the two zones.
