Induction sounds
•
Ticking sound
This sound can be caused at lower power level settings or by the automatic pot detection.
•
Pan makes sounds
Pans can make some noise during cooking. This is caused by the energy flowing from the hob
to the pan. At high settings, this is perfectly normal for some pans. It will not damage either the
pans or the hob.
•
Ventilator makes sounds
To increase the lifespan and performance of the electronics, the appliance is equipped with
fans. During intense appliance use, the fan is activated to cool down the appliance, and you will
hear a buzzing sound. The fan still runs for several minutes after the hob has been switched off.
Pans for induction cooking
Induction cooking requires a particular type of pan in terms of quality.
Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are no longer suitable for use on an
induction hob.
Only use pans that are suitable for electric and induction cooking with:
•
a thick base of a minimum of 2.25 mm;
•
a flat base.
TIP!
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a magnet. A pan is suitable if the
base of the pan is sufficiently attracted by the magnet.
