BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR
APPLIANCE
Induction hob operation principle
Under the surface glass, there are induction coils that produce pulsing magnetic
field. This magnetic field penetrates a pot placed on the hob surface causing the pot
to heat up. It is important to use pots with a suitable base.
The cooking zone is powered intermittently, which is normal. The intermittent power
depends of the heat setting.
Depending on the pots used and heat setting during cooking, the appliance
produces a distinctive whiz. This is normal and does not constitute grounds
for a complaint.
Cookware characteristics
• To check that the pot is suitable for your induction hob, make sure that a magnet
strongly attracts its base. The greater the attraction force, the better the pot.
•
Always use high-quality cookware with a perfectly flat base. The use of this kind
of cookware prevents hot spots that may result in food sticking to the pot. Pots
and pans with thick steel walls provide superior heat distribution. The concave
base or deep embossed logo of the manufacturer interfere with the temperature
induction control module and can cause overheating of the pot or pan.
• Do not use damaged cookware such as cookware with deformed base due to
excessive heat.
• When you use large ferromagnetic base cookware,
whose diameter is less than the total diameter of the
cookware, only the ferromagnetic base heats up. This
results in a situation where it is not possible to uniformly
distribute the heat in the cookware. If the ferromagnetic
area is reduced due to inclusion of aluminium parts then
the effective heated area can be reduced. Problems
with the detection of the cookware could arise or cook-
ware may not be detected at all. To achieve optimum
cooking results, the diameter of the ferromagnetic base
should match that of the cooking zone. If cookware is
not detected in a given cooking zone, it is advisable to
try it in a smaller cooking zone.
