Normal Operating Noises Of The Cooktop; Customer Service - Gaggenau VI 414 610 Manual De Instrucciones

Normal operating noises of the
cooktop
Induction technology is based on the creation of
electromagnetic fields. They may generate heat
directly on the bottom of the cookware. Pots and pans
may cause a variety of noises or vibrations depending
on the way they've been manufactured. These noises
are described as follows:
Low humming (like a transformer)
This noise is produced when cooking at a high heat
level. It is based on the amount of energy transferred
from the cooktop to the cookware. The noise ceases
or quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Quiet whistling
This noise is produced when the cooking vessel is
empty. It ceases once water or food is placed in the
vessel.
Crackling
This noise occurs with cookware comprised of various
materials layered one upon the other. It's caused by
the vibrations of the surfaces where different
materials meet. The noise occurs on the cookware and
can vary depending on the amount and method of
preparation of the food.
Loud whistling
This noise occurs with cookware comprised of
different materials layered one upon the other, and
when they are additionally used at maximum output
and also on two cooking zones. The noise ceases or
quiets down when the heat level is reduced.
Fan noises
For proper operation of the electronic system, it is
necessary to regulate the temperature of the cooktop.
For this purpose, the cooktop is equipped with a
cooling fan, which is activated to reduce and regulate
the temperature of the electronic system. The fan may
also continue to run after the appliance is turned off if
the detected temperature of the cooktop is still too
hot after turning it off.
The noises described are a normal element of the
described induction technology and shouldn't be
regarded as defects.
