How induction works
Under each induction cooking zone there is an induction coil.
When the cooking zone is switched on, the coil generates a
magnetic field that acts directly on the bottom of the
cookware to heat it up. The cooking zone heats up indirectly
from the heat given off by the cookware.
Induction only works with cookware that has a magnetizable
bottom (see Cookware). The induction process automatically
takes into account the size of the cookware being used.
In the cooking zone display the symbol
ß
will flash alternately
with the selected power setting:
– if no cookware or if unsuitable cookware (items without a
magnetizable bottom) is being used
– if the bottom diameter of the cookware being used is too
small
– if the cookware is removed from a cooking zone that is on.
If suitable cookware is placed on the cooking zone within 3
minutes, the
ß
goes out, and you can continue as usual.
If no cookware or if unsuitable cookware is used, the cooking
zone will automatically switch off after 3 minutes.
Risk of burns!
Do NOT use the appliance as a resting place for cutlery or
other items made of metal.
If the appliance is on or accidentally switched on or there
is residual heat, these items might heat up.
Always switch off the cooking zones after use.
