Induction cooktop considerations
z
Induction cooktops use energy efficient technology that only heats the contents of a
cooking pot.
z
Unlike gas or traditional electric cooktops, the surrounding air does not get heated when
using an induction cooktop. As a result, rangehood filters, splashbacks and surrounding
cabinetry do not get warmed up, increasing the likelihood of condensation on these
cooler surfaces.
z
Other factors like ambient temperature, humidity, natural ventilation of the room, size of
the cookware and how the induction cooktop is being used also influence condensation.
For example, aggressive boiling on high cooktop heat settings like PowerBoost increases
the rate at which water is evaporated, increasing the likelihood of condensation.
z
It is important to understand that neither the rangehood nor the induction cooktop are
faulty as a result of this phenomenon.
Condensation can be minimised by:
z
Installing the rangehood at the maximum height above the cooktop as specified in this
user guide.
z
Using the rangehood on a lower speed setting when boiling.
z
Using the induction cooktop on a lower heat setting when boiling.
z
Switching the rangehood on 5 minutes before cooking and letting it run for at least
5 minutes after cooking. Refer to the ‘your user guide for details of how to use the
timer function.
