USE
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 noises
EN 10
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 just as long as for 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 on.
Safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does not get any
warmer than the pan. This means that the cooking zone is considerably
cooler compared to that of a ceramic hob or a gas burner.
Once a pan has been taken away, the cooking zone cools down
quickly.
Ticking noise
A light ticking noise is caused by the capacity limiter on the front and
back zones. Ticking can also occur at lower settings.
Pan makes a noise
The pans may make a noise during cooking. This is caused by the
energy flowing from the hob to the saucepan. This is normal for certain
pans, especially at a high setting. This is not harmful for the pan or hob.
