Fault Description Service Steps
r
Power increment not
allowed
(hob in Eco Mode)
Step 1 Power management activated, no fault.
u
No pan or not suitable
pan over the heater
Step 1
Ensure correct pan size and that pan is suitable for induction cooking. Note that even though pan suitability is
checked with a magnet, depending on pan base material (low ferromagnetic %) and pan base effective
diameter (close to minimum detectable diameter), there can be pan detection problems. Ensure that good
quality pans are used.
H Residual heat Step 1 No Fault. W ait until glass surface over the heater cools down.
Heater

Step 1
Ask user to confirm if heaters have been set to high power level for a long time (or/and the oven has been set
to high power level). If true, normal heater performance is recovered when the hob cools down.
Step 2 Ask user to confirm that the product has been installed correctly, ensuring appropriate air gaps in cabinetry.
Step 3
If the product is installed correctly check for correct operation of the fan: switch off the power to the hob and
then switch on. The fan should start momentarily (should hear it start). If not, fault is likely to be the fan.
Step 4 Service visit required.
Step 5
Engineer should check installation.
Check for operation of the fan. If no fan operation change the fan.
If fault persists change Power board.
