Cooking Noise
The magnetic fields induce a small current in the pan.
The pan acts as a resistor, which produces heat, much
like a radiant coil.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is
produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated
until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.
When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat
immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.

stick, such as iron or steel.
Use pans that fit the element size. The pan must be large
enough for the safety sensor to activate an element.
The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron
utensil (less than the minimum size across the bottom)
is placed on the cooking surface when the unit is turned

knives and other small utensils.
Cookware “noise”
Slight sounds may be produced by different types of
cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron
produce less sound than a lighter weight multi-ply
stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount
of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at higher
power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and
produce a high pitch whistle. The sound will change
pitch as you change the power level of one burner.
These sounds can be reduced or eliminated by lowering
or raising the power level settings of one or both of the
elements. Pans that completely cover the element ring
will produce less sound.
A low “humming” sound is normal particularly on high
settings.
Sounds you may hear: You may hear a slight “Buzz”
when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound
depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will
“Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound
may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan
heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is
reduced, the sound level will go down.
Pans that do not meet the minimum size requirements
for the burner can produce louder sounds. They can
cause the controller to "search" for the pot and produce
a clicking and "zipping" sound. This can happen when
one burner is running or only when an adjacent burner
is also running. See User Manual for the minimum sized
pots for each burner. Only measure the flat, magnetic
bottom of the pot.
Use the minimum size pan for the element. The
pan material is correct if a magnet sticks to the
bottom.
