Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the cooktop and allow it to cool. Disconnect power before accessing internal components.
- Check ventilation: Ensure there is adequate clearance under the cooktop per Fisher & Paykel installation instructions. Remove any stored items blocking airflow.
- Clean vents: Vacuum dust from intake and exhaust vents. Do not allow liquids to enter the unit.
- Listen for fan: When zones are active, you should hear the internal cooling fan. If not, the fan may be faulty.
- Access fan (qualified persons): Remove the cooktop from the bench and open the lower cover to access the cooling fan. Check that it spins freely and is not obstructed.
- Replace fan: If the fan does not run when power is applied, replace the induction cooling fan assembly.
