YOUR APPLIANCE

How induction hobs function
Induction hobs function considerably differently from conventional hobs or solid plates. The induction coil under the glass ceramic creates a magnetic field that alternates quickly and which directly heats the magnetizable base of the cookware. The glass ceramic is only heated by the hot cookware. If the cookware is removed from the cooking zone, the power supply is interrupted immediately.

Pan detection
Every cooking zone is equipped with pan detection. The pan detection recognizes cookware with a magnetizable base that is suitable for use with induction hobs.
If the cookware is removed during operation or unsuitable cookware is used, the display near the bar graph flashes with.
If there is no cookware placed on the cooking zone during the pan detection time of 10 sec:
– The cooking zone switches off automatically after 10 sec.
– The display of each cooking zone shows .

Cookware
Suitable cookware
Only cookware with a fully magnetizable base is suitable for cooking on the induction hob.
The magnet adheres to every point on the entire base of the cookware.
Cookware suitable for use in induction cooking
Cookware used on the induction cooking surface must be made of metal, with magnetic properties and a sufficiently large base.

Suitable cookware:
Enamelled steel cookware with thick bases.
Cast iron cookware with an enamel base.
Cookware in multilayer stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel, and aluminum with a special base.

Unsuitable cookware:
Copper, stainless steel, aluminum, fireproof glass, wood, ceramic, and terracotta cookware.
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the pan, place it on a cooking zone and start the cooking zone. If the symbol appears on the display, it means the pan is not suitable.

Note: Use only cookware with a perfectly flat bottom and suitable for induction cooking zones. Using cookware with an irregular bottom could jeopardize the efficiency of the heating system and prevent cookware from being detected in the cooking zone.

Noise during cooking
Cookware can make noise during cooking. This does not indicate any malfunction, nor does it affect the functioning of the appliance in any way.
Noise depends on the cookware used. If the noise causes a considerable disturbance, it can help to change the cookware.

Advice on energy-saving
The diameter of the base of the pan must correspond to the diameter of the cooking zone.

When buying a pan, check whether the diameter indicated is that of the base or the top of the pan, as the top is almost always larger than the base.
When preparing dishes with long cooking times, you can save time and energy by using a pressure cooker, which also makes it possible to preserve the vitamins in the food.
Make sure that the pressure cooker contains enough liquid as, if there is not enough and it overheats, this may cause damage to both the pressure cooker and the cooking zone.
If possible, always cover pans with a suitable lid.
Choose a pan suitable for the quantity of food to be cooked. A large, half-empty pan leads to a waste of energy.

Normal operating noises of the cooktop
induction technology is based on the creation of electromagnetic fields. They may generate heat directly on the bottom of the cookware. Pots and pans may cause a variety of noises or vibrations depending on the way they‘ve been manufactured. These noises are described as follows:
Low humming (like a transformer)
This noise is produced when cooking at a high heat level. lt is based on the amount of energy transferred from the cooktop to the cookware. The noise ceases or quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Quiet whistling
This noise is produced when the cooking vessel is empty.
lt ceases once water or food is placed in the vessel.
Crackling
This noise occurs with cookware comprised of various materials layered one upon the other. lt‘s caused by the vibrations of the surfaces where different materials meet. The noise occurs on the cookware and can vary depending on the amount and method of preparation of the food.

Loud whistling
This noise occurs with cookware comprised of different materials layered one upon the other, and when they are additionally used at maximum output and also on two cooking zones. The noise ceases or quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Fan noises
For proper operation of the electronic system, it is necessary to regulate the temperature of the cooktop. For this purpose, the cooktop is equipped with a cooling fan, which is activated to reduce and regulate the temperature of the electronic system. The fan may also continue to run after the appliance is turned off if the detected temperature of the cooktop is still too hot after turning it off.
Rhythmic sounds and similar to the hands of a clock
This noise occurs only when at least three cooking zones are operating and disappear or weakens when some of they are switched off.
The noises described are a normal element of the described induction technology and shouldn‘t be regarded as defects.
