Question 1

Why does a red light stay on even after I have turned off the burners of my FRIONOR DVM29 ceramic hob?

Accepted Answer

You are observing a completely normal behavior: the red light that remains on is the residual heat indicator of your FRIONOR DVM29 ceramic hob. According to the manual, this indicator lights up when the surface temperature exceeds 50°C, even after the burners have been turned off. Your hob has two burners, and each has its own independent residual heat indicator.

This system serves an essential safety function: it warns you that the ceramic glass surface remains hot and should not be touched. This residual heat can cause serious burns, which is particularly dangerous in the presence of children.

The indicator will gradually turn off as your hob cools down naturally. Just let the appliance cool down quietly without intervention - the light will disappear when the temperature has dropped below 50°C. The cooling time varies depending on the duration and intensity of the previous cooking.

For your safety: never touch the surface while the indicator is on, keep children under 8 years old at a distance, and wait for the hob to cool completely before cleaning or maintaining it.

Question 2

What should I do if one of the burners on my FRIONOR DVS2930 ceramic hob is not responding to commands?

Accepted Answer

If one of the burners on your FRIONOR DVS2930 ceramic hob is not responding to commands, here are several steps to follow to try to resolve this issue:

1. Check the power supply

Make sure the hob is properly plugged in and that the power supply is stable. A power issue can prevent a burner from functioning.

2. Test the other burners

Check if the other burners are working normally. This helps determine if the problem is isolated to a single burner or if it affects the entire hob.

3. Clean the surface and controls

Carefully clean the ceramic surface and the area around the touch controls of the faulty burner. Dirt or residue may prevent the controls from being detected.

4. Reset the hob

Unplug the electric hob for about 5 minutes, then plug it back in. This operation may reset the internal circuits and resolve temporary malfunctions.

5. Check safety functions

Some ceramic hobs have safety or lock functions that may disable a burner. Check that these functions are not activated (for example, child lock).

6. Technical assistance

If after these checks the burner still does not respond, there may be a hardware fault requiring the intervention of a qualified professional or the FRIONOR after-sales service.

Question 5

How to check if the electrical cable installed for my FRIONOR DVM29 ceramic hob is indeed 6 mm²?

Accepted Answer

To check if the electrical cable installed for your FRIONOR DVM29 ceramic hob is indeed 6 mm², follow these steps:

1. Turn off the power supply

Before any handling, make sure to turn off the power supply at the main circuit breaker to avoid any risk of electrocution.

2. Access the cable

Locate the power cable of your hob. If necessary, remove any covers or conduits that protect it to be able to examine it.

3. Check the markings on the cable

Most electrical cables have printed inscriptions on their insulating sheath indicating the cable section, for example, "6 mm²". Look for these markings along the cable.

4. Measure the conductor section

If the markings are not visible, you can measure the section of the copper conductor:

Carefully strip a small part of the cable's insulation (only if you are competent to do so).
Measure the diameter of the copper wire with a caliper or a precise measuring tool.
A 6 mm² cable corresponds to a diameter of about 2.5 mm for the copper conductor.

5. Call a professional if necessary

If you have any doubts or if you cannot easily access the cable, it is strongly recommended to contact a qualified electrician to check the cable section and ensure the safety of your installation.

Question 6

How to unlock the FRIONOR DVM29 ceramic hob?

Levels 3-4: Warming, quick frying in a pan, cooking rice
Levels 5-6: Crepes and pancakes
Levels 7-8: Stir-frying, cooking pasta
Level 9: Frying, cooking soups, boiling water

A light indicator turns on as soon as at least one burner is activated. The appliance also has a residual heat indicator for each zone: this light turns on when the temperature exceeds 50°C, indicating that the surface remains hot even after the burner is turned off.

To turn off a burner, simply turn its knob to the 0 position. Even after turning off, wait for the residual heat indicator to turn off before placing your hand on the surface, as the ceramic glass retains heat.
