Induction; How It Works - Miele KMDA 7774 Operating And Installation Instructions

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 pan with a magnetic base is
placed on it (see "Pans"). Induction
automatically recognises the size of the
pan.
The set power level flashes in the
numerical keybank for the cooking zone
– if the zone has been switched on
without a pan in place, or if the pan is
unsuitable (non-magnetic base),
– if the diameter of the base of the pan
is too small,
– 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
flashing power level will go out and you
can continue as normal.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed
on the cooking zone, the cooking zone
will switch off automatically 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 any metal
items placed on the hob (e.g. cutlery)
heating up.
Danger of burning.
Do not use the appliance as a resting
place for anything else. Switch the
cooking zones off after use with the
appropriate sensor controls.
