Operation sounds of the unit
The induction heating technology is based on specific parameters of metal materials, when under the influence of high-
frequency waves. Under special circumstances these vibrations can manifest themselves by weak sounds, which do not
signal any fault. These include:
Deep hum such as at
a transformer
Beeping
High beeping sounds
Crackling
Sound of the fan

This sound accompanies cooking at high power level. It is caused by big amount of
energy which is transferred from the heating plate to the cooking utensil. This sound
will disappear or weaken as soon as the hotzone is switched over to lower power.
This sound usually appears in the case of an empty cooking utensil. It will disappear
when you pour water or put food in the utensil.
These sounds appear mainly with cooking utensils consisting of several layers of
various materials, when they are in operation at the maximum heating power. This
effect does not influence the result of cooking. The beeping disappears or weakens
as soon as the power is reduced.
This sound appears with cooking utensils consisting of several layers of various
materials. It is caused by vibrations on the connecting areas of individual layers.
The sound depends on the cooking utensil. It may change in dependence on the
quantity and kind of food being cooked in the utensil.
For good operation of the electronics it is necessary that it works at a permanently
controlled temperature. That is why the heating plate is equipped with a fan
which can be set to various power levels according to the measured temperature.
The fan may work even after the switch-off of the heating plate, if the measured
temperature is still too high.
