Induction; How It Works - Miele KM 6092 Operating And Installation Instructions

Induction

How it works

An induction coil is located under each
cooking zone. When a cooking zone is
switched on, this coil creates a
magnetic field which impacts directly
on the base of the pan and heats it up.
The cooking zone itself is heated up
indirectly by the heat given off by the
pan.
An induction cooking zone only works
when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on
it (see "Cookware"). The induction
cooking zone automatically recognizes
the size of the pan.
The symbol  is shown in the cooking
zone display and blinks alternately with
the preset power level, if
– the cooking zone has been switched
on without a pan in place, if the pan
is unsuitable (non-magnetic base),
– if the diameter of the base of the pan
is too small,
– or if the pan is taken off the cooking
zone when it is switched on.
If a suitable pan is placed on the
cooking zone within 3 minutes, the 
will go out and you can continue as
normal.
If no cookware or if unsuitable
cookware is used, the cooking zone will
automatically turn off after 3 minutes.

When the appliance is switched
on either deliberately or by mistake,
or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of heating
up any metal items placed on the
cooktop.
Burn hazard!
Do not use the cooktop as a resting
place for items. Switch the cooking
zones off after use by turning the
control to "0".
