The fan makes a noise
The appliance is equipped with a fan in order to increase the service life
of the electronic components. If you use the appliance intensively, the
fan will be switched on and you will hear a buzzing noise. The fan may
still make a noise after you have switched the appliance off.
Pans for induction cooking
Induction cooking requires a particular quality of pan.
Note
• Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are no
longer suitable for use on an induction hob.
• Only use pans that are suitable for electric and induction cooking
with:
▷ a thick base (minimum 2.25 mm);
▷ a flat base.
• The best are pans with the 'Class Induction' quality mark.
Tip
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable by using
a magnet. A pan is suitable if the base of the pan is attracted by the
magnet.
Suitable
Special stainless steel pans
Class Induction
Solid enamelled pans
Enamelled cast-iron pans
Note
Be careful with enamelled thin sheet-steel pans:
• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel), if
you switch the hob on at a high setting when the pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to overheating or
to the use of too high a power level.
