What should I do if the hob doesn't turn on?

Check the power supply, ensure the hob is properly connected, and check the circuit breaker.

It's a safety feature that alerts you when the hob surface is still hot after use, preventing burns.

Some humming is normal with induction hobs. If the noise is excessive, ensure cookware is flat-bottomed and centered on the cooking zone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Installation: The hob is designed for built-in installation. Professional electrical installation is required to ensure safety and proper functionality.

Placement: Ensure the hob is placed on a stable surface and that there is sufficient ventilation.

Compatibility

Cookware: Only use cookware that is compatible with induction hobs. This includes pots and pans made of ferrous metals (steel or iron). You can test compatibility with a magnet; if the magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan, it's induction-ready.
