The cooking zone efficiency is related to the
diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a
smaller diameter than the minimum receives
only a part of the power generated by the
cooking zone.

materials (sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you the cooking zone with
high power level and the cookware is made
of different materials (sandwich
construction).
• humming: you use high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer to
hob malfunction.
Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the lids on the
cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before you
start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food warm
or to melt it.
Examples of cooking applications
The relation between the heat setting and the
cooking zone consumption of power is not
linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is
not proportional to the increase of the cooking
zone consumption of power. It means that the
cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses
less than a half of its power.
The data in the table is for guidance
