Some pans make crackling
or clicking noises.
The induction hob makes a

Possible causes
No power.

There may be a slight film
of water over the controls or
you may be using the tip of
your finger when touching
the controls.
• Rough-edged cookware.

What to do
Make sure the induction
hob is connected to the
power supply and that it is
switched on. Check whether
there is a power outage in
your home or area. If you've
checked everything and
the problem persists, call a
qualified technician.
Unlock the controls.
See section 'Using your
induction cooktop' for
instructions.
Make sure the touch control
area is dry and use the
ball of your finger when
touching the controls.
• Use cookware with flat
and smooth bases. See
'Choosing the right
cookware'.
• See 'Care and cleaning'.
This is normal for cookware
and does not indicate a
fault.
This is normal, but the
noise should quieten down
or disappear completely
when you decrease the heat
setting.
