Sounds and Noises
Symptom
Possible cause
Noise is heard during
heating.
Various sounds may be heard depending on the type of
cookware. You may feel a small vibration when you hold
the handle and the cookware may move slightly.
This is not a malfunction. Moving the cookware
slightly or replacing it may eliminate the sound.
If the cookware is removed during heating, a short
metallic sound may be heard.
The level of the noise
from the appliance
increases and
decreases.
It is the sound of the cooling fan inside the appliance.
The level of noise changes according to the power level
and the material of the cookware. When the power level
is increased, the fan will operate at high speed and
generate more noise.
After the main power
switch is turned off,
sound from the fan can
still be heard.
While the inside of the appliance is still hot, the cooling
fan operates. When the appliance cools down, it will
automatically stop.
Clicking noise is heard
at the start of flex
cooking operation.
This is not a malfunction. This is a part of induction
heating technology. The noise is eliminated during
operation.
Heat Power
Symptom
Possible cause
The heating power is
weaker.
Overheating Prevention Function
If the base of the cookware overheats, the heating
power will automatically reduce. The power indication
will remain the same. The power returns to normal after
the cookware cools down.
Unsuitable cookware, e.g. ceramic and earthenware
pans, are used.
Do not use ceramic and earthenware pans even
if they are for induction heating as they are not
efficient.
(See page 15)
When multiple cooking
zones are used together,
■
The heating power
decreases.
■
The power indicator
automatically
decreases.
■
The power level can
not be increased.
The power level is automatically regulated so that
overall power consumption does not exceed the limit.
(See page 13)
The power indicator for a cooking zone may decrease
on its own.
Even after touching the
slider to adjust
power level, it may not increase the power level and the
appliance will beep.
