Induction hotplate function principle

IMPORTANT!

• In case sugar or other heavily sweetened substance is spilled on the hotplate, wipe it

immediately and remove the sugar residues with a scraper although the cooking zone is still hot, otherwise the hotplate may be damaged.

• Avoid cleaning the cooktop while the cooking zones are still hot, as you may damage

the hob.

• Ceramic glass hob is ﬁ tted with three or four hotplates. Hob surface is completely ﬂ at and smooth, without edges to accumulate dirt.

• The hob is ﬁ tted with high power induction hotplates. Heat is generated directly at the bottom of the dish, where it is most needed, without any losses through the ceramic glass surface. This way the required extent of energy is considerably smaller compared to traditional heaters, which operate on radiation principle.

• Glass ceramic hotplate is not heated directly, but only by return heat transmitted by the dish. This heat ﬁ gures as “remaining heat” after the hotplate is turned o . The induction hotplate generates heat from the induction coil, installed underneath the ceramic glass surface. The coil creates magnetic ﬁ eld at the bottom of the dish (which can me magnetized) which in turn originates whirling ﬂ ows of current which then heat the hotplate.

Appropriate cookware for induction hotplates

452969

• Induction hotplate will function perfectly only if appropriate cookware is used.

• During cooking, cookware should be placed in the middle of the cooking zone.

• The appropriate cookware is the one which enables induction, for example steel, enamel or steel alloy cookware. Pots made from steel alloy with copper or aluminum bottom, or glass pots are inappropriate.

• When using a pressure cooker, keep an eye on it until the appropriate pressure level is reached and settled. First, switch the cooking zone to maximum power, then reduce the power on time in compliance with the pressure cooker manufacturer’s instructions.

• Only use cookware with ﬂ at bottom! Concave or convex (indented or bulging) bottom may impede the operation of overheat protection mechanism and the cooking hob may become too hot. This could lead to cracks in the glass surface and melting of the pan bottom. In case of damage resulting from the use of unsuitable cookware or overheating of empty, dried-out pots or pans (with nothing in them), the warranty is void.

• When buying cookware, check if it bears the label

“allows induction”.

Only use cookware suitable for electric and

induction cooking, with a:

• thick bottom (at least 2.25 mm)

• ﬂ at bottom.

Cooking zone Minimum pan bottom diameter

Ø 160 mm Ø 110 mm Ø 180 mm Ø 110 mm

Ø 200 mm Ø 145 mm

The magnet test

Using a small magnet, it is possible to check whether the bottom of your cookware can be magnetized .Use only cookware to which the magnet will stick.

Pan recognition

One of the many advantages of an induction cooking hob is the pan, or cookware, recognition. Even if there is no cookware on the cooking zone, or if a pan with a diameter smaller than that of the cooking zone, is placed on it, no heat is wasted. If the pan is much smaller than the cooking zone, it may not be perceived / recognized by the cooking zone. When the cooking zone is switched on, a symbol “U” will light up on the power level display. If a piece of cookware is placed on the cooking zone in the following ten minutes, it will be recognized by the cooking hob and the cooking zone will be powered up to the set cooking level. As soon as the pan is removed from the cooking zone, power supply to the cooking zone is disconnected. If a pan with a diameter smaller than that of the cooking zone is placed on it, only the power required to heat up the pan in use will be supplied.

The cooking zone can be damaged:

• If an empty pan is placed on it.

• Before placing the pan on the cooking zone, wipe the pan bottom dry to enable the ﬂ ow of heat and to prevent damage to the cooking zone.

• For cooking and frying, only use cookware that can be magnetized, i.e. steel, enamel-coated, or cast iron cookware. Only then will the induction cooking zone operate.
