Frequently Asked Questions - FÖRDJUPA 304.612.69 IKEA

What are the dimensions of the IKEA FÖRDJUPA hob?

The hob measures approximately 59 cm in width, 52 cm in depth, and 4.5 cm in height. Ensure your worktop cutout matches these dimensions.

Is the FÖRDJUPA hob compatible with all cookware?

This is an induction hob, so only cookware with a magnetic base (e.g., cast iron, stainless steel with magnetic bottom) will work. Use a magnet to check compatibility.

How do I clean the glass ceramic surface?

Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild soapy water. For burnt residues, a ceramic hob scraper can be used gently. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

What does the booster function do?

The booster function temporarily increases the power to a cooking zone for faster heating, e.g., boiling water quickly. It automatically switches off after a few minutes.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the lock button (usually a key symbol) for a few seconds until an indicator appears. To unlock, repeat the process.

Why does the hob turn off automatically?

The hob has an auto shut-off safety feature. If a zone is left on for too long without interaction, it will turn off. This prevents accidents.

Can I install this hob myself?

Installation should be done by a qualified electrician due to electrical connections and cutout requirements. Incorrect installation may void warranty.

What is the power consumption of the hob?

The total maximum power is 6.8 kW at 220-240 V. It is recommended to have a dedicated circuit with a 32 A breaker.

Are spare parts available for this model?

Yes, IKEA offers spare parts such as control panels, heating elements, and glass tops. Contact IKEA customer service or visit the nearest store.

How do I reset the hob after a power cut?

Simply turn the hob off at the mains, wait a few seconds, and turn it back on. The hob will start normally. If not, check the fuse box.
