SCF loop can not converge with using hybrid functional

[jiabo]

Hi, every cp2k user

I am trying to use a hybrid functional (PBE0) to calculate a metallic/water 
system, only single point energy needed. However, I find the the SCF loop 
can not converge, even after 200 steps. Does anyone know how to adjust the 
parameter to make the SCF converge faster? Is that helpful to set up a 
bigger CUTOFF_RADIUS value in the input below?

Best regards,
Jiabo
