FAQs

What type of cookware is compatible with the induction hob?

Only induction-ready cookware is compatible. This usually means cookware with a magnetic base. Look for the induction symbol or test with a magnet.

How do I clean the hob?

Wipe the glass surface with a damp cloth or sponge after each use. Use a non-abrasive cleaner for stubborn stains. The grease filter can be removed and cleaned separately.

What is the bridge function?

The bridge function links two cooking zones to create one large cooking area, ideal for using griddles or larger cookware.

How do I use the PowerBoost function?

The PowerBoost function provides a rapid increase in heat. Refer to your hob's control panel to activate it, usually by pressing a specific button or selecting a power level.

What should I do if the hob is not heating?

Check the power supply, ensure the cookware is induction-compatible and makes contact with the zone, and consult the troubleshooting section of this guide.

Is the ventilation system noisy?

The ventilation system has multiple fan speeds, and the noise level varies depending on the chosen speed. Higher speeds will generate more noise.

How often should I clean the grease filter?

Clean the grease filter regularly, ideally once a month, or more frequently if you cook frequently or in a high-grease environment.

What is the warranty period?

Refer to the product documentation or contact Fisher & Paykel customer support for warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Hob not turning on

Check the power supply and ensure the hob is correctly plugged in and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped.

Poor ventilation performance

Clean or replace the grease filter and check for any obstructions in the ventilation system.

Cookware not heating

Verify that your cookware is induction-compatible and makes full contact with the cooking zone.

Touch controls unresponsive

Ensure your fingers are dry when operating the touch controls. Clean the control panel.

Hob making unusual noises

These are generally normal operational sounds of the induction hob. If the noises are excessive or new, contact customer support.
