Frequently Asked Questions

Samsung induction cooktop shows activated zone but no heat at all?

If the zone indicator is on and power is set above 0 but no heat is produced, and the pan is confirmed magnetic, an IGBT component has likely failed. Contact Samsung service.

Samsung induction cooktop not heating after moving to a new kitchen?

Check the power supply voltage and circuit breaker rating. Samsung induction cooktops require a dedicated high-current circuit. An undersized circuit breaker may trip under full load.

Samsung induction cooktop heats on some zones but not others — cause?

Zone-specific heating failures indicate component faults on individual zone boards. Other zones are safe to continue using. Contact Samsung service to repair or replace the affected zone circuit.
