general information
how it works
A magnetic field is generated in the appliance. By placing a
pan with an iron base on a cooking zone, a current is induced
in the pan base. This induced current generates heat in the
base of the pan.
easy
The electronic controls are accurate and easy to set. On the
lowest setting, you can melt chocolate directly in the pan, for
example, or cook ingredients that you would normally heat in
a bain-marie.
fast
Thanks to the induction hob’s high power levels, bringing
food to the boil is very quick.
Cooking food through takes just as long as for other types of
cooking.
clean
The hob is easy to clean. Because the cooking zones do not
get any hotter than the pans themselves, food spills cannot
burn on.
safe
The heat is generated in the pan itself. The glass top does
not get any warmer than the pan. This means that the risk of
you burning yourself on the appliance is very small. Once a
pan has been taken away, the cooking zone cools down
quickly.
The coil (1) in the hob
(2) generates a
magnetic field (3). By
placing a pan with an
iron base (4) on the
coil, a current is
induced in the base
of the pan.
If the appliance does not work properly, this does not always mean that it is defective.
