HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
For induction cooking zones a strong elec-
tro-magnetic field creates the heat in the
cookware very quickly.
COOKWARE FOR INDUCTION
COOKING ZONES
Use the induction cooking zones
with correct cookware.
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom made of
multi-layer (with correct mark from a
manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if ...
• ... some water boils very quickly on a
zone set to the highest heat setting..
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as possi-
ble.
THE NOISES DURING
OPERATION
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of differ-
ent materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels
and the cookware is made of different
materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to appliance malfunction.
The cooking zone efficiency
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware . The cook-
ware with a smaller diameter than the mini-
mum receives only a part of the power
generated by the cooking zone. For the
minimum diameters see the Technical data
chapter.
ENERGY SAVING
How to save energy
• If it is possible, always put the lids on the
cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before
you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food
warm or to melt it.
ÖKO TIMER (ECO TIMER)
To save energy, the heater of the
cooking zone deactivates before
the count down timer sounds. The
difference in the operation time de-
pends on the heat setting level and
the length of the cooking operation.
THE EXAMPLES OF COOKING
APPLICATIONS
The relation between the heat setting and
the cooking zone consumption of power is
not linear.
When you increase the heat setting it is not
proportional to the increase of the cooking
zone consumption of power.
It means that the cooking zone with the
medium heat setting uses less than a half
of its power.
The data in the table is for guid-
ance only.
