THE POSSIBLE CAUSES FOR THIS FAULT:
WARNING
Before you do anything to your appliance, make sure you disconnect it from the power supply.
There is a risk of electric shock.
Wear suitable protective gloves if you need to dismantle anything.
There is a risk of getting cut or injured
There is a problem with the electrical installation
One of the first things to check is the power supply: is the hob properly plugged in/connected at the socket? Are the terminal connectors, if there are any, properly tightened? Is there definitely current flowing? You can test the socket with a multimeter in voltmeter mode (AC). Place the two probes of the meter on the socket terminals or the terminal connectors (if there are any). You should get a reading of around 230 volts.
The terminal block on the hob is damaged
The terminal block can get damaged or burnt out, preventing the hob from switching on. This is often caused by a loosely tightened screw or a badly connected earth wire (the green and yellow one). Check the condition of the terminal block (located on the back of the hob), and replace it if it's in too damaged a condition.
The cables on the terminal block are not properly connected
If you have a cooker and the oven works fine but your induction hob doesn't, it is essential to check that the screws on the terminal block are properly tightened. Most terminal blocks have several connection points. These serve to route the electricity to both the oven and the hob. If the wires are not properly connected, or if any are connected in the wrong place, part of the appliance may not work. The same issue can arise on an induction hob: if part of the hob is not working, check the terminal block.
The power board is defective
The circuit board manages all your hob's functions. If you have already carried out all the checks detailed above and your hob still won't come on, it may be the circuit board that's causing the problem, in which case it will need to be replaced. As this is a complex and expensive step to take, if you are not confident that you have diagnosed the problem correctly, contact our technical service or seek the help and advice of a manufacturer-approved engineer.

Failure signs
As oven cleaners we often engage in conversation about the appliances with our clients and what can we say – every product has its pros and cons. Curiously enough almost every time the subject turns out to be the ceramic top cookers there is always something to be said. And that’s not in a good way. It appears there’s this persistence in common faults with ceramic hobs, so, naturally, we wanted to do a little digging on the matter.
We conducted a small survey among clients that own one, asking them for their ceramic hob problems, read a forum or two and we gathered some data. Don’t get us wrong, from a cleaning point of view there are no cooktop issues for us, they stand out because of how easy they are to swipe. But we feel that if you’re planning on getting one you might as well inform yourself better.
Disclaimer: It is not necessary that YOU will find these as inconvenient. They were just picked up as general inconveniences among our clients.

Without further ado we would like to prepare you for your upcoming cooking adventure and go straight to the point:

- Ceramic hobs may not be as good at distributing heat evenly under the cooking pot/pan which may result in unevenly cooked meal;
- The heat itself is difficult to adjust if electric;
- The ceramic top is in most cases durable but a scratch or two will appear with time. That being said dropping something on it may even crack it, so extra caution is recommended;
- Hot sweets, like sugar for example, will react with the ceramic surface, if not removed immediately, and may result in corrosive damage;
- Ceramic cooker cleaning problems may occur if you attempt to clean the top with a normal kitchen cleaner. There are special ones that will prevent unwanted chemical reactions, because there’s a danger of toxic fumes;
- Costly damage repair;
- The red dot used as a heat indicator tends to shut off earlier than safety heat point and being careless may result in a nasty burn, if not dealing with an induction hob where there’s no direct heat;
- When it comes to pots, only smooth bottomed ones should be used. Ones that are painted are taboo, along with copper or aluminium ones and may cause issues with the glass/ceramic surface. When getting a new ceramic hob changing the cooking pans and pots accordingly is a must;
- Gas hobs along with electric conventional ones may go easier on your wallet than ceramic cookers;
