Function and the Way the
Induction Cooking Zone
Works
A copper wire induction coil is beneath the ceramic
glass cooking surface. This generates electromag-
netic fields, which act directly on the base of the
pots and pans and not, as with other heating up
methods, first heating the ceramic glass. This means
that the base of the pan is immediately heated up,
which saves time and energy.
Since the heat required for cooking is generated di-
rectly in the base of the pan the cooking zone itself
hardly warms up. It only receives the reflected heat
from the pan base.
Note:
If there is no pot or pan on the cooking zone there is
no energy transfer (heating up) and therefore gives
protection against the cooking zones being switched
on accidentally.
3 A cooling fan is an integral part of this hob and
comes on automatically depending on the
temperature of the induction cooking zone.
The cooling fan works in two speed levels de-
pending on usage. The cooling fan will contin-
ue to run for a short period after the cooking
zone has been switched off.
