LG induction ranges are equipped with an overheating prevention system designed to manage heat and avoid accidents when using the large burner.
What Happens During Operation:
- If the cookware on the large burner becomes too hot, the range's safety system automatically activates.
- The burner will cycle on and off repeatedly to control and maintain the existing high temperature, rather than actively reducing it.
- The [H] indicator (indicating high heat/hot surface) will be displayed while this process is active.
What to Do and Cooking Tips:
- The activation of the system is a normal safety feature, especially if cooking at high temperatures.
- The [H] symbol is an indicator, not an error code, and will disappear automatically once the burner's surface temperature falls below a safe threshold.
- To prevent frequent activation, gradually increase the temperature of your cookware using a lower heat setting initially.
- Avoid lifting the frying pan off the burner during cooking, as this can interfere with heat sensing.
- If the large burner continues to cycle off frequently even at lower settings, try using the medium burner instead, as the overheating prevention system only affects the large burner.
Did you set the low heating power level of the highlight or did the temperature of the cooktop rise after using it for a long time?
Understanding Power Cycling on LG Induction Ranges
- Power Cycling: It’s normal for the power to turn on and off to keep the cooktop at the right temperature.
- Constant Heat: If you prefer the cooktop to stay on without cycling, set the heating power to level 9. It will run continuously, but it still cycles if the burner temperature reaches 550℃.
- Higher Heat: For even more heat, use the dual function. Select the large burner and press the [Dual] button. This will turn on a red light and make the large burner bigger.

When you press the [Dual] button while all 3 burners are operating, an alarm will sound twice and the dual function will not operate.
If you use a small or medium burner and a large burner at the same time and use the dual function, the dual function is automatically turned off if you operate another burner.
The dual function of the highlight is only available in the 3-burner models [BER3G*].
