NORMAL INDUCTION OPERATING NOISES
You may hear the following operational noises:
CRACKING NOISES:
You may hear a cracking
noise when you are using cookware made of two
or more materials
WHISTLING:
A whirling noise occurs when
both back burners are in use. This is caused by
vibrations. Whistling can vary depending on the
weight or material of the cookware or the type of
food you are cooking. (Noise can be reduced by
using thicker cookware.)
HUMMING:
You may hear a low humming when
you set an element to a high power setting. This
sound is generated by energy transmission, and
it will disappear when cooktop is turned off, or at
lower power settings.
CLICKING:
Electric switches are operating on
induction control board.
HISSING, BUZZING:
You may hear a fan noise
during cooktop/oven operation. You may continue
to hear it even after the cooktop/oven is turned
off. This is normal. The fan runs to cool down the
temperature inside. It will automatically shut off
after a short period of time.
These
noises are normal and do not
indicate any
defects.
CORRECT USAGE
INCORRECT USAGE
Use magnetic pans that are
recommended for induction
cooktops. A magnet should
stick to the bottom of the pan.
The cookware will not work if
a magnet does not stick to the
bottom of the pan.
The cookware bottom should
be centered on the cooking
element area.
The cookware may not work
properly if the bottom of the pan
is not centered on the cooking
element area.
The bottom of the pan should
be flat and flush with the
cooking element.
The cookware may not work
properly if the bottom of the pan
is warped and not flush with the
cooking element.
The diameter of the pan's base
should be about the same size
as the cooking element, and
should not extend more than
1/2" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
The cookware may not work
properly if the diameter of
the pan's base is too small or
too large to fit on the cooking
element.
The pan is properly balanced
and should be flat and flush
with the cooking element.
The cookware may not work
properly if the bottom of the pan
is tilted and not resting properly
on the cooking element.
The pan should have a flat
bottom.
The cookware may not work
properly if the bottom of the pan
is rounded.
