5.2
Operation
Method of operation of heating plates
In induction cookers the electric voltage is applied to a conductive coil under the glass. This generates magnetic field, which being a physical effect, heats the bottom of a cookware directly.
This translates to savings of time and energy, as
— contradictory to traditional heating areas
— there is no heating up of a heater and then of the glass heating plate.
Another advantage of the technical features described above is the very short cooking time.
Additionally, inflow of heat changes instantly with every change of settings and it may be controlled precisely. The induction heating plate reacts to changes in settings as fast a gas cooker, for the energy is delivered immediately to a pot, without the need to prior heating up of other materials.
The induction technology combines the speed of reaction with a basic benefit of the current, making it possible to precisely control heat inflow.

If the cookware piece is removed, the induction plate can stop heating immediately, and switches off automatically after 2 minutes.
Recommendations for Cooking
• The cooking process should be commenced with high setting, and then reduced, when the prepared food is heated up or boiling.
• Using lids shortens the cooking time and saves energy, as heat is arrested.
• When cooking with lid on, decrease the cooking level as soon as steam starts to flow out between a lid and a cookware piece.
• To shorten the preparation time, minimize the amount of liquid or fat.
• When heating up pomaces, creamy soups and thick sauces, stir them from time to time.
• When the cooking process is finished, and until serving, the food should be kept warm in closed containers.
• Do not cook food too long, to retain nutritional values.
• To obtain healthier cooking results, do not heat up oils nor fats to and above smoke point.
• To brown food, fry it in small portions, one by one.
• In the cooking process, cookware may reach high temperatures. Use kitchen towels or protective gloves.

Indications and Tips
Problem Possible Cause To-Do
Some pans/pots make crashing or clicking sounds.
Quiet booming sound during operation at high output level.
This is caused by the structure of cookware: layers made of various metals vibrate differently.
This is normal in the case of some cookware adapted to induction plates and is not considered to be an operational flaw or en error.
This is caused by the technology of induction cooking.
This is normal; when the setting is reduced, the sound power will be smaller or disappears completely.
Sound generated with a working fan.
Built-in fans prevent electronics against overheating during operation and shortly after switching the appliance off.
This is normal and requires no intervention.
Cookware does not heat up.
The appliance cannot recognise the cookware for:
– it is not suitable for using on induction plates,
– it is too small for a given hob,
– it is not placed in the middle.
Use only cookware that is suitable for induction plates.
Make sure that the diameter/size of the pan's/pot's bottom is suitable for a hob.
