Operation sounds of the appliance
The induction heating technology is based on specific parameters of metal materials, when under the influence
of high frequency waves. Under special circumstances these vibrations can manifest themselves by weak acoustic
sounds, which do not signal any fault. These include:
Deep hum such as at
a transformer
This sound accompanies cooking at high power level. It is caused by the big amount
of energy which is transferred from the cooking zone to the cookware. This sound will
disappear or weaken as soon as the cooking zone is switched to lower level.
Beeping
This sound usually appears in case of an empty cookware. It will disappear when you
pour water or put food in the cookware.
High beeping sounds
These sounds appear mainly with cookware consisting of several layers of various
materials, when they are in operation at the maximum heating power. This effect does
not influence the result of cooking. The beeping disappears or weakens as soon as the
power is reduced.
Cracking
This sound appears with cookware consisting of several layers of various materials. It is
caused by vibrations on the connecting areas of respective layers. The sound depends
on the cookware. It may change depending on the quantity and type of food being
cooked in the cookware.
Sound of the fan
For good operation of the electronics it is necessary that it works at a permanently
controlled temperature. That is why the hob is equipped with a fan which can be set to
various power levels according to the measured temperature. The fan may work even
after the hob has been switched off, if the measured temperature is still too high.
