1)
To verify, if the pan is suitable, use a permanent magnet and find out if it sticks on the
bottom of the pan. If not, your pan is not suitable for induction cooking. Choose a pan
which is recommended for induction cooking. Choose pan material suitable for induction
units.
2)
The cooling-system (fan) starts to operate when the ambient temperature in the control area
exceeds 55ºC/130ºF. At heat temperatures higher than 70ºC/160ºF the controller
automatically reduces the power to keep the unit in normal operating conditions. The
cooker runs in a non continuous mode. This mode can be heard.
