The induction cooking zones create the heat required for cooking directly in the base of the cookware. The glass ceramic is merely heated
by the residual heat of the cookware.
The cooling fan switches itself on and off depending upon the temperature of the electronics.
Operating the appliance
Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware.
