This chapter provides you with important notices with regard to
operating the device. Observe the following notices to avoid
dangers and damages:
Warning
► Do not leave the device unsupervised when it is in operation,
so that you can intervene quickly in the event of dangers.
With an induction cooker the heat is not transferred by a heating
element via the cooking utensil to the food to be cooked, but
rather the necessary heat is generated directly in the cooking pot
with the aid of induction currents.
An induction coil underneath the ceramic glass hob generates an
alternating electromagnetic field, which penetrates the ceramic
glass hob and induces the heat-generating current in the base of
the cookware.
Advantages of the Induction Hob
Energy-saving cooking due to direct energy transfer to the
pot.
Enhanced safety since energy is only transferred when a
pot is placed on the hob.
Energy transfer between the induction cooking zone and
the base of the pot with high degree of efficiency.
Rapid heating.
Low risk of burning, since the cooking surface is only
heated by the base of the pot.
Boiling over pot contents does not burn onto the hob.
Rapid, fine-tuned control of the input power.
