Using the induction hob
Cooking on an induction hob is different from cooking on a traditional
appliance. Induction cooking makes use of a magnetic field to
generate heat.
Quick
At first, you will be surprised by the speed of induction cooking.
Especially at higher settings, foods and liquids will come to a boil very
rapidly. It is best not to leave pans unattended to avoid them boiling
over or boiling dry.
The power level adjusts itself
In induction cooking, only the zone where the pan is placed is used. If
you use a small pan on a large zone, the power will be adjusted to the
diameter of the pan. The power will thus be lower and it will take longer
before the food in the pan comes to the boil.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zone does not get any
hotter than the pan itself, food spills cannot burn into the glass.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any
hotter than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerably
cooler than a ceramic hob or a gas burner. Once a pan has been
removed, the cooking zone cools down quickly.
Please note
• Grains of sand or other substances may cause scratches and spots
that cannot be removed. Only put pans with a clean base on the
cooking surface and always lift pans to move them.
• Do not use the hob as a worktop.
• To avoid energy loss, always keep the lid on the pan when cooking.
