Induction

How it works

An induction coil is located under each
cooking zone. When a zone is turned
on, this coil creates a magnetic field
that impacts directly on the base of the
pan and heats it up. The zone itself is
heated up indirectly by the heat given
off by the pan.
An induction cooking zone only works
when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on
it (see "Cookware"). The induction zone
automatically recognizes the size of the
pan.
In the cooking zone indicator, the sym‐
bol  will flash alternately with the se‐
lected power setting:
– No cookware or unsuitable cookware
(items without a magnetizable bot‐
tom) is being used.
– The bottom diameter of the cook‐
ware being used is too small.
– The cookware is removed from a
cooking zone that is on.
If suitable cookware is placed on the
cooking zone within 3 minutes, the 
goes out, and you can continue as usu‐
al.
If no cookware or if unsuitable cook‐
ware is used, the cooking zone will au‐
tomatically turn off after 3 minutes.

When the appliance is turned on
either inadvertently or by mistake, or
when there is residual heat present,
there is the risk of the metal items
heating up.
Danger of burns!
Do not use the cooktop as a storage
space. Turn the zones off after use
with the appropriate sensor buttons.
