Normal operating
noises of the cooktop
Induction technology
is based on the creation of
electromagnetic
fields. They may generate heat directly
on the bottom of the cookware. Pots and pans may
cause a variety of noises or vibrations
depending
on the
way they've been manufactured.
These noises are
described
as follows:
Low humming (like a transformer)
This noise is produced
when cooking at a high heat
level. It is based on the amount of energy transferred
from the cooktop
to the cookware. The noise ceases or
quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Quiet whistling
This noise is produced
when the cooking vessel is
empty, tt ceases once water or food is placed in the
vessel.
Crackling
This noise occurs with cookware
comprised
of various
materials layered one upon the other. It's caused by the
vibrations of the surfaces where different materials meet.
The noise occurs on the cookware
and can vary
depending
on the amount and method of preparation
of
the food.
Loud whistling
This noise occurs with cookware
comprised
of different
materials layered one upon the other, and when they are
additionally
used at maximum output and also on two
cooking zones. The noise ceases or quiets down when
the heat level is reduced.
Fan noises
For proper operation of the electronic system, it is
necessary to regulate the temperature
of the cooktop.
For this purpose, the cooktop is equipped
with a cooling
fan, which is activated to reduce and regulate the
temperature
of the electronic system. The fan may also
continue to run after the appliance
is turned off if the
detected temperature
of the cooktop is still too hot after
turning it off.
The noises described
are a normal element of the
described
induction technology
and shouldn't be
regarded as defects.
