How induction works

The coil (1) in the
hob (2) generates a
magnetic field (3). By
placing a pan with
an iron base (4) on
the coil, a current is
induced in the base
of the pan.

Induction sounds

A magnetic field is generated in the appliance. By placing a pan with an
iron base on a cooking zone, a current is induced in the pan base. This
induced current generates heat in the base of the pan.
Easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the lowest
setting, you can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for example, or cook
ingredients that you would normally heat in au bain-marie.
Quick
Thanks to the induction hob's high power levels, bringing food to the
boil is very quick. Cooking food through takes the same amount of time
as other types of cooking.
Clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not get any
hotter than the pans themselves, food spills cannot burn into the glass.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any
hotter than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerably
cooler than a ceramic hob or a gas burner. Once a pan has been
removed, the cooking zone cools down quickly.
Ticking sound
• A light ticking sound is caused by the capacity limiter on the front
and back zones. Ticking can also occur at lower settings.
Pan makes sounds
• The pan can make sounds during cooking. This is caused by the
energy flowing from the hob to the saucepan. This is normal for
certain saucepans, particularly at high settings. This is not harmful
for the pans or hob.
Ventilator makes sounds
• In order to increase the lifespan of electronic components, the appliance
is fitted with a ventilator. If you use the appliance intensively, the ventilator
will be switched on and you will hear a humming sound. The ventilator
can also make sounds after you have switched off the appliance.
