Advantages of induction cooking The appliance is equipped with an induction generator for each cooking zone. Each generator located under the glass ceramic cooking surface creates an electromagnetic field which induces a thermal current in the base of the pan. This means the heat is no longer transmitted from the hob to the pan but created directly inside the pan by the inductive current.
