Problem
Cause and remedy
After switching on the
hob,
appears in the
front left cooking zone
display and
appears in
the front right cooking
zone display for a few
seconds. The cooking
zones do not heat up.
The hob is in demonstration mode.
Deactivate demo mode (see "Programming").
The food in the pan
does not heat up when
the Auto heat-up func-
tion is switched on.
A large amount of food is being heated up.
Start cooking at the highest power level and then
turn down to a lower one manually later on.
The pan is not conducting heat properly.
Use a different pot or pan which conducts heat
properly.
The food in the pan is
barely heating up or is
not heating up at all.
The pan is not conducting heat properly.
Use a different pot or pan which conducts heat
properly.
The pan is too large for the cooking zone.
Use a smaller pan.
The outer ring of a double or extended cooking zone
is not switched on.
Switch the outer ring on.
The heating element for
one of the cooking
zones switches on and
off.
This is quite normal and due to the electronic regula-
tion of the temperature (see "How the cooking zones
work").
If the heating element switches on and off even when
the highest power level is selected, this indicates that
the overheating protection mechanism has triggered
(see "Overheating protection").
