Possible Causes

Overheating of zone or electronics, Pan too small or not centered, Internal power module protection, Inadequate ventilation under cooktop

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Ensure proper installation and ventilation as per Hisense specifications.

  • Use correct cookware: Match pan size to zone and center it properly.
  • Ventilation: Check that cabinet cutout and vents allow airflow. Remove items stored directly under the cooktop that block air.
  • Cooling fan: Verify that the cooling fan runs when zones are used at high power. Replace the fan if not operating.
  • Normal behavior: Some cycling is normal as the cooktop regulates temperature. If power is severely limited, the power module may be overheating or failing and should be inspected.
