Induction21The induction principleAn induction coil is located under eachcooking zone. When a cooking zone isswitched on, this coil creates a mag-netic field which impacts directly on thebase of the pan and heats it up. Thecooking zone itself is heated up indir-ectly by the heat given off by the pan.An induction cooking zone only workswhen a ferromagnetic pan is placed onit (see "Pans"). The induction cookingzone automatically recognises the sizeof the pan.0004 will appear in the cooking zone...

Induction22NoisesWhen using an induction cooking zone,the following noises can occur in thepan, depending on what it is made ofand how it has been constructed.On the higher power settings, it mightbuzz. This will decrease or cease alto-gether when the power setting is re-duced.If the pan base is made of layers of dif-ferent materials (e.g. in a sandwichedbase), it might emit a cracking sound.Whistling might occur if linked zones(see "Booster") are being used at thesame time, and the pans also...

Induction23PansThe following pan types are suitable:–stainless steel with a base that canbe magnetised,–enamelled steel,–cast iron.
The following pan types are not suit-able:
–stainless steel pans without a mag-netic base,–aluminium and copper pans,–glass, ceramic or earthenware potsand pans.
To test whether a pot or pan is suitablefor use on an induction hob, hold amagnet to the base of the pan. If themagnet sticks, the pan is suitable.If an unsuitable pan is used, the 0004 sym-bol will appear in the...

Tips on saving energy24–Use a lid whenever possible to min-imise heat loss.–Select a smaller pan when cookingsmall quantities. A smaller pan usesless energy than a larger pan withvery little in it.
–Cook with as little water as possible.–Once food has come to the boil orthe oil in the pan is hot enough forfrying, reduce the heat to a lower set-ting.
–Use a pressure cooker to reducecooking times.

Operation28BoosterThe cooking zones are equipped with aBooster with one level or a TwinBoosterwith two levels (see "Guide to the appli-ance - Hob").When activated, the power is boostedfor a maximum of 10 minutes so thatlarge quantities can be heated quickly,e.g. when boiling water for cookingpasta. The cooking zone will automatic-ally revert to power level 9 at the end ofthe Booster duration.Hobs with 2 cooking zones: the boosterfunction cannot be used on both cook-ing zones at the same time.Hobs...
