7 What to do if trouble occurs?
Interference with and repairs to the appliance by
unqualifi ed 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

This is design-specifi c and has no infl uence on quality
and operation.
This is normal since the electronic unit is being cooled
down.
This is due to technical reasons; the induction hob
and the pot are not at risk.
The induction heating elements can only switch their
power down to a certain power setting. The heating
element will start to clock below this power setting.
This means that the induction heating element will
switch on and then off again at certain intervals
irrespectively of the selected power setting. This
clocking can be heard and will become visible when
you are cooking through bubbles forming on the
bottom of the pan and then disappearing again. This
pulsating cooking is normal at certain power levels
and will not have any negative eff ect on the results of
cooking. Remedy: Make sure that pots and pans have
a thick base so that they have good heat retention
and distribution properties. Always close cooking pots
with a suitable lid. A lot of energy is lost when cooking
pots without a lid are used.
