A Word on Induction Cooking Induction cooking is an advanced cooking technology. It is safe, efficient and economical as it works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in the pan, rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only because the pan eventually warms it up.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone. Always lift pans off the induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass. Using the Touch Controls • The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
