Induction Function An induction coil is installed beneath each burner. If a burner is turned on, the coil produces a magnetic field, which operates directly on the cookware bottom and heats it. The burner is indirectly heated by the heat radiated from the pot. Burners with induction operate only when cookware with a magnetizable bottom is placed on them, see "Selecting cookware".
Induction Sounds When operating induction burners, the following sounds can occur depending on the material of the cookware base: – Buzzing can be heard at high power levels. It will quiet down or go out, when the power level is turned down. – Crackling occurs when the cookware has a base made from several materials, e.g. sandwich bottom.
Selecting cookware Suitable cookware Cookware size – Stainless steel with magnetizable bottom For optimum burner use, select the size of the cookware so it fits between the inner and outer marking of the burner. If the pot is smaller than the inner marking, the induction may not operate. The burner reacts, as if no cookware was placed on it.
