GLASS SYMBOL DESCRIPTIONS
OPERATION OF THE INDUCTION HOB
Cooking on Induction
Cooking with an Induction Hob is different to a conventional hob which has either
heating elements or hotplates. An induction hob uses powerful electro magnets
which are located below the glass surface. When a pan manufactured from
magnetic material is placed directly above an electro-magnet, energy is induced
into the metal of the pan. This energy causes the metal pan to become hot and is
sufficient to provide the heat for cooking. Since heat for cooking is created inside
the pan, only the area of glass in direct contact with the pan will become very hot.
To ensure you achieve maximum cooking efficiency from your Induction hob we
recommend the use of pans which are specifically made for this type of
appliance. Choose pans which show a coil symbol and state ‘Induction’ on the
underside. If however you wish to use your existing pans and are unsure if they
are suitable, you can check if they are the correct type by using a magnet. If the
magnet will attach to the base then the pan should be suitable for induction.
•
Avoid old or miss-shaped pans as these may cause instability.
•
Using excessively large pans may reduce performance or cause
damage.
Do not remove the pan support and enclose the burner
with a wok stand as this will concentrate and deflect heat
onto the hotplate
Do not place anything, e.g. flame tamer, asbestos mat,
between pan and pan support as serious damage to the
appliance may result
Do not use large pots or heavy weights which can bend
the pan support or deflect flame onto the hotplate
