• utensil made from nonmagnetic
materials or low levels of
magnetic materials (insufficient
for the heat to be induced to) is
; sitting on the cooking area being
energized.
• utensil is lifted from the cooktop
surface without turning the range
surface control OFF.
• size (diameter) or shape of
magnetic utensil is incorrect. (See
Fig. U)
This beeping sound alerts you that you
need to do something. The beeping will
continue indefinitely until you correct
Fig.U the situation. Although the beeping is
not harmful to the cartridge, it should not be allowed to continue for extended
periods of time. While the beeping is occurring, no heat is being produced by the
cooking area.
Other Design Features
Besides the design features described previously, the following are characteristic
of the induction cooktop.
• the induction cooktop will not heat jewelry, rings, or similar small items
made of magnetic materials since these items are too small. An object must
be 4 inches in diameter to keep the unit on.
• the induction process is not like that utilized in a microwave oven.
Microwaves heat food. For safety reasons, microwave energy is confined to
the oven cavity. The alternating current generated by an induction cooktop
heats magnetic utensils.
• if the induction cooktop is located near a radio or remote controlled TV
receiver, it could interfere with the reception on these appliances when it is
on.
