pans can cause damages of the
appliance.
7. The non-stick-coating of coated
saucepans and frying pans can be
damaged if used with too strong
heating. Please follow the infor-
mation of the saucepan manufac-
turer with regard to the applica-
tion of the pots.

FUNCTIONING

Cooking on an induction cooker saves
up to 50 % of electric power. The cook-
ing time is reduced by up to 30 %.
When cooking on an induction cook-
er, not the hotplate is heated, but the
saucepan on it, provided that the bot-
tom is ferromagnetic. The heating is
effected by a magnetic alternating
field below the hotplate.
The advantages of induction cooking
are:
ƒ Short reaction time, short pre-
heating time, quick and exact
heating.

SAFETY FUNCTIONS

1. Overvoltage / low voltage protection
When power voltage is too high or too
low, the induction cooker will compen-
sate the voltage automatically and will
adjust the output power.
2. Overheating protection
When the temperature of the hotplate
is too high, the induction cooker will
stop automatically and a long buzzer
sound will be heard to alert you un-
til the temperature returns to normal
(fault E 5).

8. Choose in the case of doubt a
lower power setting or tempera-
ture to avoid damages. Put the
saucepan always precisely in the
middle of the cooking field to
avoid error messages and auto-
matic switching off.
ƒ Rapid heating, since the full
amount of enery is immediately
available.
ƒ Cool hotplate, which is only
heated by the heat reflected from
the saucepan.
ƒ Great energy saving of up to
50%.
ƒ Easy cleaning, as food cannot
burn in case of boiling over.
ƒ High safety: as soon as the sauce-
pan is taken away from the plate,
the heat supply is stopped auto-
matically.
3. High voltage pulse protection
During operation, when power supply
receives a transient high voltage pulse
(e.g. lightning strike), the induction
cooker will stop automatically and in
one minute will resume automatically.
4. Small metal part protection
If small iron metal parts with a diam-
eter of less than 80 mm are detected
on the hotplate, the appliance cannot
be switched on.
