Induction
22
Noises
When using an induction cooking zone,
the following noises can occur in the
pan, depending on what it is made of
and how it has been constructed.
On the higher power settings, it might
buzz. This will decrease or cease
altogether when the power setting is
reduced.
If the pan base is made of layers of
different materials (e.g. in a sandwiched
base), it might emit a cracking sound.
Whistling might occur if linked zones
(see "Booster") are being used at the
same time, and the pans also have
bases made of layers of different
materials.
You might hear a clicking sound from
the electronic switches, especially on
lower power settings.
You might hear a whirring sound when
the cooling fan switches on. It switches
on to protect the electronics when the
cooktop is being used intensively. The
fan may continue to run after the
appliance has been switched off.
