How induction hobs function
Induction hobs have a quick reaction time, allow precision cooking, are
powerful, economical and safe.
They work in a very different way to conventional hobs or solid plates. The
induction coils under the glass ceramic plate produce a rapidly changing
magnetic field which directly heats up the magnetic base of the cookware.
The glass ceramic plate remains relatively cool as it only receives heat from
the hot cookware.
Removing the cookware from the cooking zone immediately interrupts the
supply of energy.

After the cooking zone is switched off,
remains illuminated in the display
as long as a burn hazard exits.
Induction hobs require cookware with a magnetic base.
The diameter of the magnetic base of the cookware should corre-
spond to the diameter of the cooking zone in order to achieve the
greatest energy absorption and the best possible heat distribution in
the cookware.
