Lock" section.
Has the cooktop turned off by itself? The power off key
was unintentionally touched. Press power key again. Reset
the cooktop.
Excessive heat around cookware on cooktop
Is the cookware the proper size? Use cookware about the
same size as the surface cooking area. Cookware should not
extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the cooking area.
Cooktop cooking results not what expected
Is the proper cookware being used? See "Cookware"
section.
Is the cooktop control set to the proper heat level? See
"Cooktop Controls" section.
Is the cooktop level? Level the cooktop. See the Installation
Instructions.
Display shows messages
Is the "replace pan" animation showing in the display
when you place a saucepan on an induction surface
cooking area? See the "Pan Detection" section. Check that
the saucepan is electromagnetic. Check that the diameter of
the saucepan is large enough. Center the saucepan on the
surface cooking area. Allow the saucepan to cool down in the
event that it has become hot when used. Switch the surface
cooking area off, then on again. If the display still does not
light up, turn power off at the circuit breaker. Wait 20 seconds
and turn power back on.
Is the Performance boost function display flashing and
switching off? The Performance boost function operates the
surface cooking area with the most power. During long
cooking times, it is possible that the function will switch the
surface cooking area off to protect the cooktop from
overheating. You can continue to use the cooktop if the
display is not flashing.

Operational cooktop sounds
Is there a low humming? This occurs when cooking at high
power. The cause of this is the amount of energy which is
transmitted from the appliance to the cookware. This sound
will quiet or go away when the power is turned down.
Is there a crackling? This sound occurs when cookware is
used which consists of different materials. The noise is
caused by vibrations in the joint faces between the different
layers. It may change depending on the amount and type of
food being cooked.
Is there a fan noise? The electronics require a controlled
temperature in order to function reliably. The cooktop is fitted
with a fan which runs at various speeds according to the
temperature detected. The fan may also continue to run even
after the cooktop has been switched off, if the temperature it
detects is too high.
