cookware is made of different materials
(sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to hob malfunction.
Eco-Off (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the cooking
zone deactivates before the count down
timer sounds. The difference in the
operation time depends on the heat
setting level and the length of the cooking
operation.
Examples of cooking
applications
The correlation between the heat setting
of a zone and its consumption of power is
not linear. When you increase the heat
setting, it is not proportional to the
increase of the consumption of power. It
means that a cooking zone with the
medium heat setting uses less than a half
of its power.
The data in the table is for
