Operational Cooktop Noises

Cookware Noise
The induction fields are generated by electronics equipment, which are pretty much silent but they do produce heat at high power level. A softsounding cooling fan run when the unitis running multiple cooking elements at high settings at once or when a cooking element is set at very high power settings.
What can sometimes produce sound with induction cooking is not the induction equipment but the cookware itself. Slight sounds may be produced by different types of cookware. Some of the possible causes include:

  • Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply stainless steel pan; Light weight cookware may also vibrate. Heavy weight quality cookware is recommended.
  • Cookware with irregular or warped bottoms can vibrate audibly on the ceramic glass surface, though again typically only at high power settings.
  • A “Cracking” noise may be heard if the cookware base is made of layer of different material. Alow “humming” noise occurs when cooking, which is normal particularly at high power settings.
  • Whistling can occur if both elements are being used at the same time at the high settings, and the cookware has bases made of layer of different material.
  • Loose-fitting handles on cookware, typically when riveted on, can vibrate slightly.
  • High quality cookware of solid cast iron including enamelware will lower the noise.

Compatible Cookware

The quality of your cooking is dependent on the cookware you use.
Because induction cooking requires a magnetic vessel for heating, only certain materials can be used on your cooktop.
Induction requires pots and pans that are made of ferrous(meaning magnetic) materials.
Check your cookware’s retail box for the induction symbol. To tell if your current cookware is compatible with the induction technology, grab a magnet and see if it holds to the bottom of the cookware. If your magnet stays on then your cookware is ready to be used on the Induction cooktop!

Optimally the cookware will have this induction image on the retail box:

Induction

The following are not compatible: heat-resist glass, ceramic, copper, aluminum pan/pots, round-bottomed cookware, or cookware with a base less than 5 inches.
NOTE: Some cookwares can produce noises when used on induction cooking zones. This is not a fault in the cooktop, and its function will not be impaired in any way as a result.

Cleaning Your Cooktop

Please follow these directions along with Important Safety steps for cleaning, advised at the beginning of the manual. Use a ceramic glass cleaner on the glass cooktop. To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:
Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it to protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

  1. Daily use of ceramic glass cleaner when the cooktop is cool will keep the cooktop looking new.
  2. Shake the cleaning solution well. Apply a few drops of ceramic glass cleaner directly to the cooktop.
  3. Use a paper towel or a soft cleaning pad for ceramic surface to clean the entire cooktop surface.
  4. Use adry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning residue. No need to rinse. Never run the cooktop under water.

Cleaning Burned on Residue:
NOTE: Itis very important that you DO NOT use the cooktop until it has been thoroughly cleaned.
WARNING: Damage to the glass surface may occur if you use scrub pads or any other type of abrasive cleaning materials.

  1. Allow the cooktop to cool.
  2. Spread a few drops of the ceramic glass cleaner on the burned residue area.
  3. Using the ceramic glass cleaning pad, rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.
  4. If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above.
  5. For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with the ceramic glass cleaner and a paper towel.

Cleaning heavy burned – on residue:

  1. Allow the cooktop to cool.
  2. Used a singleedge razor blade scraper approximately at a 45 degree angle against the glass surface, and scrape offtheresidue.
  3. After scraping off the residue, apply a few drops of the ceramic glass cleaner on the entire burned residue area. Use the cleaning pad to remove any remaining residue.
  4. For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with the ceramic glass cleaner and a paper towel.

Metal Marks and Scratches:
Be careful not to slide pots or pans across the cooktop surface. It will leave behind metal markings. These marks are removable using the ceramic glass cleaner along with the cleaning pad for induction cooktop.
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper boil dry, the overlay may leave a black discoloration on the cooktop. This should be removed immediately before using the cooktop again or the discoloration will become permanent.
