Troubleshooting Guide
If you encounter issues with your induction cooktop, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cooktop does not turn on. | No power supply; power cord not properly connected. | Check if the cooktop is plugged in and the power outlet is functional. |
| 'E' error code or no heating. | Incompatible cookware; no cookware detected; cookware too small/large. | Use induction-compatible cookware with a diameter between 12-26 cm. Ensure the pot is centered on the cooking zone. |
| Cooktop shuts off during operation. | Overheating protection activated; prolonged inactivity. | Allow the unit to cool down. Ensure ventilation is not blocked. If no cookware is present, the unit will automatically shut off. |
