Symptom / Description

FAULT

Cooking zone 4 cannot be selected, the keep warm function does not work, or the cooking assistant is unavailable.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

Communication error with the selection sensor, the 'Hold' sensor or the cooking assistant circuit for cooking zone number 4.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED
1Reset the device by turning off its power supply via the circuit breaker for a few minutes. 2. Reconnect and perform a functional test of zone 4. 3. Clean the ceramic glass surface of the controls. 4. If the problem persists, the touch control board is probably defective and should be examined.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols
  • !High-Voltage Safety Protocol: Disconnect 230V power before unplugging edge connectors or removing PCB.
  • !High Voltage DC Warning: Wait at least 5 minutes for SMPS and inverter filter capacitors (up to 380V DC) to discharge safely.
  • !Electrostatic Discharge (ESD): Ground yourself to the metal chassis or wear an antistatic wrist strap before touching circuit tracks.
3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks
  • Inspect PCB tracks with a magnifying glass for blown triacs, darkened copper tracks, or cold solder joints on power relays.
  • Check electrolytic capacitors for bulging tops or leaked electrolyte residue around pins.
  • Verify edge connector locking clips are intact and pins are free of vibration fretting corrosion.
