Hob · your observations
Keep each zone and its indication together.
Identify induction, ceramic, solid-plate or gas format, then say whether one zone or the whole hob changed. Transcribe the display. For induction, describe cookware recognition from ordinary use without deliberately repeating electrical trips.
Recognition and heating are different observations
On an induction hob, pan recognition can affect the response before heating begins. Keep the displayed indication and ordinary cookware observation with the exact model. No live tests or repeated electrical resets are needed for this account.
Only one zone responds differently
Keep the zone indication and actual hob format together. For induction, include ordinary cookware recognition observations. Similar displays can mean different things across models; repeated trip resets are not an investigation.
The panel is dark, or the buttons do not respond
These are separate observations. Note which lights or displays remain visible and any interruption you already know about. Leave electrical housings shut; an enquiry does not require live testing.
When the display remains normal
Keep the visible display and actual behaviour in separate sentences. A familiar-looking panel can remain illuminated even when the selected function produces a different result.
When the last user is someone else
Ask for their description of the selection and outcome where possible. Retain what was actually observed rather than replacing it with a guessed component name.
