    Why is my Defy Hob beeping?
    • R
      Richard SullivanAug 21, 2025
      Your Defy Hob might be beeping because the timer is over, resulting in two long beeps every 5 seconds for one minute. Alternatively, there could be an object or liquid on the controls, causing two short beeps and one long beep every 30 seconds. To resolve this, press any button to turn off the alarm if the timer is the cause. If it's due to an object or liquid, remove the object or wipe the touch control area.
