Symptom / Description

FAULT

The hob shuts down during use.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

The internal electronics have overheated. This can be caused by blocked ventilation underneath the hob or prolonged use on high power without adequate airflow.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED
1Let the hob cool down completely. Ensure the ventilation slots under the worktop are clear and not obstructed. The hob should restart once it has cooled.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols
  • !Electrical Safety Protocol: Disconnect electrical mains plug or trip dedicated circuit breaker before servicing.
  • !Wait at least 5 minutes before opening any casing panels to reset volatile microcontrollers and bleed residual charges.
  • !Operate in a dry workshop environment; never bypass internal electrical thermal cutouts.
3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks
  • Check appliance leveling with a spirit level; adjust threaded leveling feet for perfect stability.
  • Check door and lid perimeter rubber gaskets for tears, gaps, or foreign object obstruction.
  • Inspect shock absorbers, suspension springs, and rubber dampers for mechanical fatigue or excessive play.
