How it works
Induction coils are located under the
ceramic surface. These coils create a
magnetic field that reacts directly with
the base of the cookware and heats it
up. The ceramic surface itself is heated
up indirectly by the heat given off by the
cookware.
The position, size and shape of the
cookware are recognised automatically
by the induction hob.
An induction cooking zone only works
when cookware with a magnetic base is
placed on it (see "Cookware").
Risk of burning due to hot items.
When the appliance is switched on
either deliberately or by mistake, or
when there is residual heat present,
there is the risk of metal items placed
on the hob heating up.
Do not use the appliance as a resting
place for anything.
After use, switch the hob off with
the sensor control.

Noises
The following noises can occur in the
cookware, depending on what it is
made of and how it has been
constructed:
Buzzing on the higher power levels.
This will decrease or cease altogether
when the power level is reduced.
If the cookware is made of layers of
different materials (e.g. in a sandwiched
base), it might emit a crackling sound.
You might hear a clicking sound from
the electronic switches, especially at
lower power levels.
A whirring sound, when the cooling fan
comes on. This switches on to protect
the electronics when the hob is being
used intensively. The fan may continue
to run after the appliance has been
switched off.
