Possible Causes
Non-magnetic cookware, Pan too small for zone, Warped pan bottom, Faulty pan detection circuit
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Surface may be hot from residual heat. Use caution.
- Verify cookware: Ensure a magnet sticks firmly to the bottom of the pan. If not, use induction-compatible cookware.
- Match pan size: Use a pan that covers at least 60–70% of the cooking zone.
- Check pan bottom: Avoid heavily warped or concave pans; use flat-bottomed cookware.
- Service if needed: If multiple compatible pans fail on the same zone, the induction coil or power module pan detection circuit may be faulty and require replacement.
