PART 2: WORKING PRINCIPLE

When the power connection is ON, the electric current will produce a magnetic field in the induction coil, which is embedded in the machine. As soon as the magnetic force lines in the magnetic field touch the alloy steel pot/boiler, it will produce a heating effect, which would lead to the heating of the food in the pot.

4. Do not clean it with running water or immerse it in water as water will get inside and damage the appliance.
5. Always make sure that the top plate and the pan/pot are clean before cooking as the dirt from the pan/pot will stick to the plate and the plate will get discolored.
6. You may clean the air vent with a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dirt or you can use cotton if the dirt is with oil.
7. A toothbrush with little soap can also be used to clean the surface as long as you use it gently on the appliance.

FEATURES
Whilst standard hotplates heat up themselves, in an induction hotplate the heat is created in the base of the cookware. The hob itself does not heat up; it becomes hot when food is heated upon it in a pan and the heat from the pan reflects onto the hob. (Reverse heating).
This is caused by an energy field that generates heat only in magnetically conductive materials, for example, pans made of iron. In other materials, such as porcelain, glass or ceramic, the energy field cannot generate any heating effect.
Only use cookware that is suitable for induction hobs:

1. Suitable cookware consists of pots and pans with a base made of steel or cast iron. You can identify these either by means of the markings on the pan or by ascertaining whether a magnet clings to the base of the pan.
2. Unsuitable cookware is made from any kind of metal that is non-magnetic, such as aluminum, copper and stainless steel, as well as non-metallic vessels made of porcelain,  glass, ceramic, plastic, etc.
3.  Thin pan bases are better suited to induction cooking than thick sandwich bases. The very short response times to setting modifications (short preheating period, rapid and controllable browning) are not possible when pans with thick bases are used. Only use cookware that is suitable for the size of the hob. This is the only way to ensure that the induction hob functions perfectly. The base of the pan may not be uneven, rather, it must sit flat. The diameter may not be less than 12 cm to ensure that the energy field has an effect. Do not use pans with a diameter in excess of 20 cm.
