Induction or ceramic hob zones on Montpellier range do not respond to touch controls intermittently.

Safety first: Ensure the hob surface is cool before cleaning. Do not pour water directly onto the control area.

• Clean and dry: Wipe the control panel with a soft, dry cloth to remove any residue.
• Use dry fingers: Touch controls work best with dry, warm fingers. Avoid using gloves.
• Power reset: Turn off the hob at the mains for a few minutes, then restore power.
• Check for interference: If the issue occurs when other high-power appliances start, have an electrician check for proper earthing and supply quality.
• Persistent issues: May indicate a failing touch control PCB that needs replacement.
