BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Thoroughly clean your induction cooktop first.
The induction cooktop should be treated with
the same care as a glass surface.
• Switch on the ventilation in the room or open
a window, as the appliance could emit odours
during first use.
• Operate the cooktop observing all safety
guidelines.
INDUCTION COOKING OPERATION PRINCIPLE
An electric oscillator powers a coil placed inside
the appliance. This coil produces a magnetic field,
which induces eddy currents in the cookware.
These eddy currents induced by the magnetic field
cause the cookware to heat up.
This requires the use of pots and pans a
ferromagnetic base — in-other-words susceptible
to magnetic fields.
Overall, induction technology is characterised by
two advantages:
• The heat is only emitted by the cookware,
• There is no thermal inertia, since the cooking
starts immediately when the pot is placed on the
cooktop and ends once it is removed.
Certain sounds can be heard during normal use
of the induction cooktop, which do not affect its
correct operation.
Low-frequency humming. This noise arises when
the cookware is empty and stops when water is
poured or food is placed in the cookware.
• High-frequency whiz. This noise arises in
cookware made of multiple layers of different
materials at maximum heat setting. The noise
intensifies when using two or more cooking
zones at maximum heat setting. The noise will
stop or reduce when the heat setting is reduced.
• Creaking noise. This noise arises in cookware
made of multiple layers of different materials.
The noise intensity depends on how the food is
cooked.
• Buzzing. Buzzing can be heard when the
electronic cooling fan operates.
The noises that can be heard during the normal
appliance operation are the result of the cooling
fan operation, cooking method, cookware
dimensions, cookware material and the heat
setting. These noises are normal and do not
indicate a fault.
