-Each induction element is equipped with a pan sensing device. This device will not allow the element to turn
on unless it senses an inductioncompatible pot or pan on the element covering enough surface area. If no
pot/pan is detected, the digital display will flash indicating that there is no power on the element. Once an
inductioncompatible piece of cookware is sitting properly on the element, the digital display will become
steady, and the cookware will start heating up. Note that a small object as a fork, a spoon, a piece of jewelry,
etc. will not be mistaken for a cooking utensil, and it will not trigger this sensor. Moreover, this device will
distinguish between pots and pans which are and are not suitable for induction cooking.
If a piece of cookware, which is not suitable for induction cooking, is placed on an element, there will be no
power output on the element.
We reserve the right to make any changes to internal components, as well as, to make any (cosmetic)
modifications on the outside in an effort to improve our products.
Users with pacemakers or defibrilators must consult with their pacemaker manufacturer or their physician
prior to using this cooktop which incorporates an induction heating source.
If a crack appears in the glass surface, disconnect the unit immediately to avoid any risk of electric shock. If
the unit is connected directly to supply inside a junction box, then disconnect its breaker, or remove fuses
manually.
Do not use your cooktop until the glass top has been replaced.
When cooking, never use aluminum foil, never place products wrapped in aluminum foil or products deep-
frozen in aluminum packs on the cooktop.
Aluminum foil could melt and damage the vitroceramic glass beyond repair.
The Principle of Induction
When an induction element, also called: ‘a heating zone’ or simply: ‘a coil’ - is switched on, the appropriate
piece of cookware used, and a desired level of heating power selected, the electronic circuit unit (‘induction
generator’ or ‘inverter’) powers up the induction element which creates a magnetic field. This magnetic field
continuously changes in terms of frequency and intensity, and this creates induced ‘eddy’ currents in the
bottom of the pot or pan and ultimately results in heat. The heat is transferred directly to the food being
cooked.
Thus, induction heat makes the cookware a direct source of heat, featuring high level of efficiency with
extremely low energy loss and unparalleled heating level control.
With induction cooking there is very little ‘heating inertia’. Induction cooking elements do not incorporate a
heat generating element, unlike convectional electric rings, halogen or radiant elements etc, therefore, heat
levels can be changed very quickly.
For induction, energy efficiency is within a range of 90-95%, compared with 55-65% for conventional and
radiant element, or 45% - 55% for gas fueled burners. The energy efficiency contributes to substantial
energy savings, both beneficial to the owner as well as the environment.
Induction cooking elements are sensitive to the cookware type being used :
- If there is no cookware placed on the element, or if the cookware is not of induction grade, there will be no
power emitted by the element.
- If the the piece of cookware is placed partially on the element, or if it is smaller than the element, the
internal sensors will reduce power to the element.
- If the pot/pan is fully removed from the element, the power output will be instantaneously reduced to ‘0’.
The controls will turn the element off after a minute, unless the piece is returned onto the element.
When compared to other methods of cooking, induction cooking has a very low level of ambient heat, thus
making cooking more pleasurable, with a reduced need for ventilation.
Finally, the vitroceramic glass as a cooking surface barely becomes hot and this makes cleaning much
easier.
When using induction elements, some cookware may produce faint humming sound. This is a normal
occurrence. The noise is a result of vibrations caused by induced currents.
