IH (Induction Heating) refers to

electromagnetic induction heating.

When electricity ows in the magnetic coils underneath the top plate, magnetic

lines of force are produced.

The magnetic lines of force pass through metallic cookware when an eddy current

is induced. The heat that is generated by

the electrical resistance of the cookware

is used for heating.

Energy-efcient Cooking Tips

■ Always place the correct lids on pans to keep the heat in.

■ Use the correct size of pan for the

amount of food you are cooking.

■ Use cookware with a solid, at base. Curved pan bases will increase energy consumption.

■ Use the right size of pan for the

diameter of the cooking zone. If too small energy will be wasted e.g. If the diameter of the pan is not the same

as the cooking zone it is preferable to

use a pan with a base that is larger in diameter than the cooking zone, otherwise the energy will be wasted.

■ Put just enough water in the pan to cover vegetables. This will save

energy.

■ Turn down the power level of the cooking zone once the cooking

temperature is reached; simmer food

rather than boiling it.

■ Use a steamer to cook vegetables,

that way you can layer a number of

vegetables on top of each other and

still use one ring, or use a pan with a

divider.

Troubleshooting

Sounds and Noises

Symptom Possible cause

Noise is heard during

heating.

Various sounds may be heard depending on the type of cookware. You may feel a small vibration when you hold the handle and the cookware may move slightly.

This is not a malfunction. Moving the cookware slightly

or replacing it may eliminate the sound.

If the cookware is removed during heating, a short metallic sound may be heard.

The level of the noise

from the appliance

increases and decreases.

After the main power switch is turned off, noise from the fan is

heard.

It is the noise from the cooling fan inside the appliance. The level of the noise changes according to the power level and the material of the cookware. When the power level is increased, the fan will operate at high speed and generate more noise.

While the inside of the appliance is still hot, the cooling

fan operates. When the appliance cools down, it will automatically stop.

Heat Power

Symptom Possible cause

The heating power

of the IH heater is

weaker.

When multiple

cooking zones are used together,

■ The heating power decreases.

■ The power indicator

automatically

decreases.

■ Can not increase

the power level.

Overheating Prevention Function

If the base of the cookware overheats, the heating power will automatically reduce. The power indication will remain the same. The power returns to normal after the cookware cools down.

Unsuitable cookware, e.g. ceramic and earthenware pans,

are used.

Do not use ceramic and earthenware pans even if they

are for induction heating as they are not efcient. (See

pages 17-18)

The power level is automatically regulated so that overall power consumption does not exceed the limit. The power indicator for a cooking zone may decrease on its own. Even after touching the

‘+’ (KY-B64CA) to adjust power level, it may

not increase the power level and the appliance will beep.
