NOTE
Cookware for induction hob is labelled as suitable by the manufacturer.
NOTE
When used on induction cooking zones, cookware may make noises. These noises
are normal.
NOTE
Non-stainless steel cookware are less heat-conductive than stainless steel. Using
non-stainless steel cookware lengthens cooking time.
Residual heat indicator
When an individual cooking zone or the hob is turned off, the presence of residual
heat is shown with an
,
(for “hot”) in the digital display of the appropriate
cooking zones. Even after the cooking zone has been switched off, the residual
heat indicator goes out only after the cooking zone has cooled.
You can use the residual heat for thawing or keeping food warm.
WARNING
As long as the residual heat indicator is illuminated, there is a risk of burns.
WARNING
If the power supply is interrupted, the
,
symbol will go out and information
about residual heat will no longer be available.
However, it may still be possible to burn yourself. This can be avoided by always
taking care when near the hob.
Temperature detection
If for any reason the temperatures on any of the cooking zones were to exceed the
safety levels, should this happen then the cooking zone will automatically reduce
to a lower power level.
When you have finished using the hob, the cooling fan will continue to run until
the hob’s electronics has cooled down. And the cooling fan switched itself off
depending upon the temperature of the electronics.
