FAQs
What type of cookware is compatible?
Cookware made of cast iron or stainless steel designed for induction hobs is compatible. Use a magnet to test: if it sticks to the bottom of the pan, it's induction-ready.
How do I clean the hob?
Wipe the surface with a damp cloth or a specific hob cleaner after it has cooled down. Avoid abrasive cleaners and steel wool.
What does the PowerBoost function do?
The PowerBoost function provides a surge of heat for quick heating, ideal for boiling water or searing food.
How long can I set the timer for?
The timer can be set for a maximum of 99 minutes.
How does Hob2Hood work?
Hob2Hood wirelessly connects to a compatible hood. The hob automatically signals the hood to adjust fan speed based on the cooking temperature.
What if the hob is making a humming noise?
A slight humming noise is normal with induction hobs, especially at higher power settings. However, excessive noise might indicate a problem. Consult the user manual.
What is the warranty period?
The warranty period is typically two years, but please refer to the documentation included with your hob for specific terms and conditions.
Troubleshooting
Hob not turning on.
Check the power supply. Ensure the hob is correctly connected to the mains and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. Also make sure the child lock is not activated.
Cookware not heating.
Verify that the cookware is induction-compatible. Test with a magnet. Ensure the pan base is flat and in good contact with the cooking zone.
Hob2Hood not working.
Ensure your hood is compatible with Hob2Hood technology and properly paired with the hob. Check the hood's settings and consult the hood's manual.
Touch controls unresponsive.
Ensure your fingers are dry when operating the touch controls. Clean the control panel, as grease or spills can interfere. If the problem persists, try restarting the hob by turning off the power at the mains for a few minutes.
