control panel. The appliance is ready for use.

Induction cooking

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced and efficient cooking technology. It works by generating electromagnetic radiation
in a suitable pan that then cooks the food. There is no direct heat from the glass, though the surface will get hot due to
convection heating from the pan itself; this is perfectly normal.
My new induction hob makes a lot of different noises. Does this mean that it is faulty?
• Crackling sounds. These noises can normally be attributed to the pans and the different materials used in their
construction. The pan base will be a composition of different materials which will expand at different rates as the pan
heats.
• Clicking noises. These are normally created by the electronic components within the appliance as they switch on and
off.
• Whistling noises. These can be caused when one or more cooking zones are in operation at a high power level and as a
result of the cookware being constructed of different materials.
• Humming noises. These noises can be created when a high power level is selected i.e. boost function. Noises related to
high power levels will reduce as the pans heat to temperature and the power level is reduced.
• Hissing/humming noises. These noises can be normally heard when the hob's cooling fan is in operation.
• All of the noises listed above are quite normal and do not indicate a fault. Contact Customer Services shown in the Care
& maintenance section below if you need further guidance.
Cookware
Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the
bottom of the pan.
• You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the
pan. If it is attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.
• If you do not have a magnet:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. Place the pan in any zone, select a power level on that zone. If "U" flashes on the display of the corresponding zone,
then the pan is not suitable for this appliance.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size as the cooking zone. Use
pans whose diameter is as large as the graphic of the zone selected. You will get maximum efficiency by matching the pan
size to the cooking zone and ensuring it is central. Small pans less than 14cm may not be detected.
