Hob lock key symbol wont allowme to switch hob on

Display cleaning protection

If you wipe over the control panel while the hob is switched on, settings may be changed. To avoid this, the hob has a function you can use to lock the control panel for cleaning. To activate: Remove the twist knob. An audible signal sounds. The ? indicator and the hob settings flash. The control panel is locked for 10 minutes. You can now wipe over the surface of the control panel without altering the settings.

To deactivate: Put the twist knob back on within 10 minutes. The control panel is unlocked. To end the function early, put the twist knob back on before the 10 minutes have elapsed.

Hi and welcome to FixYa,
I can not insert the symbols here to properly answer your question so, I found the manual and you can read the steps on page 9 here:

http://awadnahas.net/pdf/UserManual/bf7e9e9b-cc9e-46fc-94a7-5965a2d61b18.pdf

This is copy and paste from the manual and the symbols will not come out:

Switching off the child safety device

• Start the hob with ( ' ). Do not set the heat settings . Touch for (Up arrow) 4 seconds. The

symbol ( 0 ) comes on.
• Stop the hob with ( I )

The symbols I typed above are not 100% as they appear in the manual.
Thanks for choosing FixYa,

Thank you for using FixYa. The pad lock symbol is a child safety device to prevent accidental operation. Press or touch the area on or around the padlock symbol and the indicator will go out and thus allow you to use the hob

Try - set all hotplates to setting 2. Switch off jot plates one after another starting with front right in clockwise direction, touch main switch for at least 5 seconds & a signal will sound - this activates & de-activates the child lock - or so the instructions say...

To use the hob with the child lock on - it says to press the main switch for more than 4 seconds & that lets you use it.

hi gud day, more of ceramic hob is touch control,try to stay ur thumbmark wen the unlock circle to unlock if u hear the sound it means is unlock also in the other wat u want to operate,or clean the surface coz some oil is coz of not operate properly. tnx gerbee

Hi I have just had the problem of accidently locking my Neff Hob.
If you hold down the L Lock button for about a minute it unlocks.

gud day,the ceramic hob is very sensitive to operate if u not read the manual.after u unlock the switch go to the control of the hob wat area u want to operate by touching the sensor then if u see the zero # touch again the area,positive side to increase the heat 1-9 the standard control heat.some model & brand have a different operational procedure,try to read the manual 1st or check the voltage of the unit coz the ceramic have a 4voltage standard for different country. tnx gerbee

If the KEY lock is on (key botton flashes when switched on) ... touch AND HOLD the lock symbol for AT LEAST TWO seconds until it beeps, then hold the on/off button for AT LEAST 2 SECS.

If the CHILD lock is on ([L] on all displays when switched on), then:
1)Hold the on switch for TWO secs min (unit swtiches on) ...then
2) touch AND HOLD the + AND - for AT LEAST 2 secs
3) touch the - button once again.

hold down powerboot for 4 seconds to switch off child lock

Got the same problem, and remembered I've kept the manual book
L means locked. I dont know how Ive managed to do this as well

Anyway it says:

Cancelling the key lock
After switching ON the control the child safety feature can be deactivated. Here it is necessary to simultaneously operate the front right cooking-zone-select-key and the MINUS-key and then operate the MINUS-key alone. If all steps hae been carried out in the right order within 10seconds the key lock gets cancelled and the control is OFF. Otherwise the input will be considered incomplete, the control remains locked and switches-OFF after 20 seconds.

After a renewed switching-ON/OFF key all displays show 0", the display dots are blinking and the control is ready for ooking. If a cooking zone is "hot", "H" will be displayed instead of the static 0".


Followed their instructions & still not worked. ,I am still confused and baffled after these instructions........................
