If your induction hob is not heating, here are some simple checks you can carry out at home to identify what could be causing this:
Damaged heating element
A common cause could be a damaged copper coil burner. These coils are crucial for transferring electromagnetic energy to heat your cookware and food. If they are damaged, the energy transfer is disrupted, preventing proper heating.
Use induction-compatible cookware
Induction hobs require ferromagnetic cookware to function properly, as they heat the pans directly rather than the hob surface. Ensure you are using cookware with flat bases for even distribution and contact. Pro tip: To test if a pot works with induction, see if a magnet attaches to the bottom.
If the issue persists, we advise against attempting repairs yourself. Instead, book a repair with one of our highly trained and qualified Bosch engineers.
