11.2 Noises

Question

Answer

Why I can hear noises while

I'm cooking?

¡

Noises may be generated while using the cooktop depending on the properties of the

base of the cookware. These noises are normal for induction technology. They do not

indicate that there is a fault.

Possible noises

¡

A deep humming noise similar to a transformer: Occurs when cooking at a high

power level. This noise disappears or becomes quieter when you reduce the power

level.

¡

A quiet whistling noise: This can be heard when the cookware is empty. This noise

disappears when you add water or food to the cookware.

¡

Crackling: This noise occurs when the cookware is made from different multilayer

materials, or if you use cookware of different sizes and different materials. The volume

of the noise can vary depending on the quantity of food being cooked or the cooking

method.

¡

Loud whistling noises: These may arise if you are operating two cooking zones at

the same time and at the maximum power level. These whistling noises disappear or

become quieter when you reduce the power level.

¡

Fan noises: The cooktop is equipped with a fan that switches on automatically at high

temperatures. The fan may also continue to run after you have switched the cooktop

off if the temperature measured is still too high.

Why is the cooking zone not

heating up and why is the

power level flashing?

¡

The cookware is on a different cooking zone to the one that has been switched on.

Ensure that you have switched on the correct cooking zone for the cookware.

¡

The cookware is too small for the cooking zone that is switched on or it is not suitable

for induction cooking. Ensure that the cookware is suitable for induction cooking and

that it is placed on the cooking zone which best corresponds to its size.
