To turn on the Hotpoint TB 2160B NE Hob, press the power button located on the control panel. Then select the desired cooking zone and adjust the heat setting using the touch controls.
Ensure that the hob is properly connected to the power supply. Check if the child lock feature is activated and disable it if necessary. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact customer support.
After ensuring the hob is cool, use a soft cloth or sponge with mild detergent to clean the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the glass. For stubborn stains, a hob scraper may be used.
Regularly clean the hob after each use to prevent food build-up. Avoid using pots and pans with rough bottoms, and periodically check for software updates from Hotpoint to ensure optimal performance.
To activate the child lock, press and hold the lock button for a few seconds until a lock symbol appears on the display. This prevents accidental changes to the settings.
Error codes indicate specific issues with the hob. Refer to the user manual to interpret the code and follow the recommended troubleshooting steps. If unresolved, contact Hotpoint support.
It is recommended to use flat-bottomed cookware made of materials like stainless steel or enamel. Avoid using glass or ceramic pots as they do not conduct heat efficiently on induction hobs.
Select the cooking zone you wish to set a timer for, then press the timer button. Use the control panel to adjust the desired cooking time. The hob will automatically turn off the zone when the timer reaches zero.
Ensure the control panel is clean and dry. If the issue persists, try resetting the hob by turning off the power supply for a few minutes. If the problem continues, seek professional assistance.
Always lift pots and pans instead of sliding them across the surface. Use cookware with smooth, clean bases and avoid placing heavy items on the hob. Regular cleaning will also help maintain the surface.
