NOISES MADE BY THE HOB
Induction hobs can make whistling or crackling sounds during normal operation, these actually come from
the pots and pans as a result of the characteristics of the bottoms (for example, bottoms made of several
layers of material, or uneven bottoms). These noises vary depending on the pots and pans used and the
amount of food they contain, and don’t indicate defect of any kind.
In addition, the induction hob is equipped with an internal cooling system to control the temperature of
electronic parts; as a result, during operation and for several minutes after the hob has been switched off,
the noise of the cooling fan will be audible. This is perfectly normal and indeed essential for proper
functioning of the appliance.
