Normal operating noise of the cooktop

Induction technology is based on the generation of

electromagnetic fields. These allow heat to be generated

directly on the base of the cookware. Pots or pans can cause

different noises or vibrations depending on the manufacturing

method. These noises are described as follows:

Deep buzzing (as from a transformer)

This noise occurs when cooking on higher power levels. It is

due to the volume of energy transferred from the cooktop to the

cookware. The noise stops or reduces when the power level is

reduced.

Low whistling

This noise occurs if the cooking container is empty. It stops

when water or food is placed in the container.

Crackling

This noise occurs with cookware made of different multilayer

materials. It occurs because of vibrations at the areas at which

the different materials contact each other. The noise occurs on

the cookware and can vary according to the volume and

preparation method of the food.

Loud whistling

This noise occurs for cookware made of different multilayer

materials if they are also used on the maximum power level and

on two cooking positions at the same time. The noise stops or

reduces when the power level is reduced.

Fan noises

For correct operation of the electronic system, the cooktop

temperature must be regulated. To do this, the cooktop is

equipped with a cooling fan which is operated to reduce and

regulate the temperature of the electronic system. The fan can

also continue to run when the appliance is switched off, if the

temperature measured after switching the cooktop off is still too

hot.

The above-mentioned noises are a normal part of induction

technology and should not be considered as a defect.
