Normal working noises in the hob
Induction technology is based on the creation of
electromagnetic elds. These electromagnetic
elds generate heat directly on the bottom of
the pan. Pots and pans may produce a variety
of noises or vibrations, according to their
construction.
These types of noise can be described as
follows:
Light buzz (like the noise made by a
transformer)
This noise is produced when cooking with a high
level of heat, and it is determined by the amount
of energy transferred by the hob to the pans. The
noise will stop or decrease when the heat level is
reduced.
Light whistle
This noise is produced when the pot or pan is
empty, and stops as soon as it is lled with water
or food.
Crackle
This noise occurs with pans made from layers
of numerous di󰀨erent materials, and is caused
by vibration of the surfaces where the di󰀨erent
materials meet. The noise comes from the pans,
and may vary according to the quantity of food
and preparation method being used.
Loud whistle
This noise occurs with pans made up of layers of
di󰀨erent materials, and also when these are used
at maximum level and on two cooking areas. The
noise will stop or decrease when the heat level is
reduced.

Fan noises
For the electronic system to operate correctly, the
temperature of the cooker hob must be regulated.
To do this, the hob is equipped with a cooling
fan that is activated to reduce and regulate the
temperature in the electronic system. The fan
may continue to operate after the appliance has
been turned o󰀨, if the temperature of the cooker
hob is still detected to be too high.
Rhythmic sounds like a clock ticking
This noise only occurs when at least three
cooking areas are operating, and it disappears or
decreases when some of them are turned o󰀨.
The noises described are a normal feature
of induction technology and are not to be
considered as defects.
Turning the device on
Press and hold to turn the device on.
- All the power level displays will indicate “0“.
- If no other selections are made, the device
will turn o󰀨 after 20 seconds for safety
reasons.
Selecting a cooking area
Press on the reference Digit for one or more of
the cooking areas and set the power level.
