• 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.
5.3 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.
5.4 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 only.
