How induction hobs function
Induction hobs function considerably
differently to conventional hobs or
solid plates. The induction coil under
the glass ceramic creates a magnetic
field that alternates quickly and which
directly heats the magnetisable base
of the cookware. The glass ceramic is
only heated by the hot cookware. If the
cookware is removed from the cooking
zone, the power supply is interrupted
immediately.
Pan detection
Every cooking zone is equipped with pan
detection. The pan detection recognises
cookware with a magnetisable base that is
suitable for use with induction hobs.
If the cookware is removed during

for induction cooking. If you do
not have a magnet, you can put a
small amount of water in the pan,
place it on a cooking zone and start
