What to do if trouble occurs

What to do if trouble occurs
Interference with and repairs to the appliance by unqualified per-
sons are dangerous as they can result in an electric shock or a
short circuit. Do not interfere with or try to repair the appliance;
this could cause injury to persons and damage to the appliance.
Always have such work done by an expert, e.g. a Customer
Service technician.
Please note
If your appliance is faulty, please check whether you can rectify
the problem yourself by consulting these instructions for use.
You may be able to rectify some problems yourself. They are
described below.
The fuses blow regularly?
Contact a technical customer service or an electrician!
You can't switch your induction hob on?
• Has the wiring system (fuse box) in the house blown a fuse?
• Has the hob been connected to the mains?
• Is the childproof lock activated, i.e. does the display show an
"L"?
• Are the sensor keys partly covered by a damp cloth, fluid or a
metallic object? Please rectify.
• Are you using unsuitable cookware? See the section on
"Cookware for induction hobs".
An error code ER03 is indicated and a time-limited continu-
ous signal will sound.
Food which has boiled over, cookware or other items are causing
the touch control sensor keys to be consistently operated.
Remedy: clean the surface or remove the item.
Error code E2 or ER21 is indicated?
The electronic unit is too hot. Check the installation of the hob.
Make sure that there is sufficient ventilation.
See the section on "Protection against overheating".
Error code U400 is indicated?
The hob has been incorrectly connected. The controls will switch
off after 1 s and a continuous signal will sound. Connect the
appliance to the appropriate power supply.
An error code (ERxx or Ex) is indicated?
The appliance has developed a technical defect. Please call Cus-
tomer service.
The pot sign appears?
A cooking zone has been switched on and the hob is expecting a
suitable pot or pan to be placed on the cooking zone (pan recog-
nition). Only when a pot has been placed on the cooking zone will
power be supplied.
The pot sign still appears, even though a pot or pan was
placed on the hob?
The cookware is unsuitable for induction cooking or the pot or
pan is too small.
Is the cookware you are using making noises?
This is due to technical reasons; the induction hob and the pot
are not at risk.
Does the cooling fan still operate after it has been switched
off?
This is normal since the electronic unit is being cooled down.
Is the hob making noises (clicking or cracking sounds)?
This is for technical reasons and cannot be avoided.
Does the hob have tears or cracks?
There is a risk of electric shocks if the glass ceramic hob devel-
ops fractures, cracks, tears or damage of any other kind. Immedi-
ately switch off the appliance. Disconnect the fuse immediately
and call Customer Service.
Pulsating cooking?
The induction heating elements can only switch their power down
to a certain power setting. The heating element will start to clock
below this power setting.
This means that the induction heating element will switch on and
then off again at certain intervals irrespectively of the selected
power setting. This clocking can be heard and will become visible
when you are cooking through bubbles forming on the bottom of
the pan and then disappearing again.
This pulsating cooking is normal at certain power levels and will
not have any negative effect on the results of cooking.
Remedy:
Make sure that pots and pans have a thick base so that they
have good heat retention and distribution properties.
Always close cooking pots with a suitable lid. A lot of energy is
lost when cooking pots without a lid are used.
