Operating principle of the induction hob
Induction hob is like an open circuit. The circuit completes when a cooking
pots/pans suitable for induction cooking is placed on it and an electronic
system below the glass surface generates a magnetic field. The metal base of
the pots/pans is heated by taking energy from this magnetic field. Thus, the
heat is not generated on the surface of the hob, but directly on the pots/pans
above it. Glass surface is heated with the heat of the cooking pots/pans.
Advantages of cooking with induction
Induction hobs offer some advantages as the heat is transferred directly to
the cooking pots/pans.
- Foods that overflow during cooking do not burn rapidly as the glass cooking surface is not heated directly. It is cleaned more easily.
- Cooking shall be faster as the heat is generated directly on the cooking pots/pans. Thus, it saves time and energy with respect to other hob types.
- As the heat is given directly to the cooking pots/pans, there is no heat loss, and it provides a more efficient cooking.
- The fact that the heat transfer stops and the cooking surface is not heated directly when the cooking pots/pans is removed from the cooking surface provides a safer use against possible accidents while cooking.
For a safe operation:
- Do not select high heating levels when using non-sticking cooking pots/pans coated with little amount of oil or used without oil (teflon type).
- Do not use glass cooking surface as a surface where you can place something on it or as a cutting surface.
- Do not place metal objects such as cutlery or pot lids on your hob as they may get hot.
- Never use aluminium foil for cooking. Never place food wrapped in aluminium foil on the induction zone.
- Keep magnetic objects such as credit cards or tapes away from the hob while it is operating.
- If there is an oven under your hob and it is being operated, the sensors on the hob may reduce the cooking level or turn off the hob.
- Your hob has an automatic shut-off system. Detailed information about this system is provided in the following sections. However, if you use thin based pots for your cooking, these pots shall heat up very quickly and the bottom of the pan may melt and damage the cooking surface and the appliance before the automatic shutoff system is activated.
Cooking pots/pans
You shall use ferromagnetic, quality cooking pots/pans which bear a label or
warning that it is compatible for induction cooking only with your induction
hob. Generally, the higher the iron content, the better the cooking pots/pans
shall perform. The base diameter of the cooking pots/pans shall match the
induction zone. Suggested dimensions are listed below.
Suitable pots/pans:
- Cast iron pots/pans
- Enamelled steel pots/pans 16/EN
- Steel and stainless steel pots/pans (with label or warning indicating that it is induction compatible)
Unsuitable pots/pans:
- Aluminium pots/pans
- Copper pots/pans
- Brass pots/pans
- Glass pots/pans
- Pottery
- Ceramic and porcelain
Recommendations:
- Use flat bottomed cooking pots/pans only. Do not use pots/pans with convex or concave bases.
- Use cooking pots/pans with thick, processed bases only. If you use thin based pots, these pots shall heat up very quickly and the bottom of the pan may melt and damage the cooking surface and the appliance before the automatic shut-off system is activated. Sharp edges may cause scratches on the surface.
- The bases of some cooking pots/pans have a smaller ferromagnetic field than its true diameter. Only this area is heated by the hob. Therefore, the heat is not evenly distributed and the cooking performance is decreased. Moreover, such cooking pots/pans may not be detected by large induction hobs. Thus, the cooking hob shall be selected according to the size of the ferromagnetic field.
- Some cooking pots/pans have a base that contains non-ferromagnetic materials such as aluminium. These types of cooking pots/pans may not heat adequately or may not be detected by the induction hob at all. In some cases, a bad pots/pans warning may appear.
Cooking pots/pans test
Test whether your pot is compatible with cooking with an induction hob using
the methods below.
- It is compatible if the base of your pot holds a magnet.
- lt is compatible if “ ” does not flash when you place your pot on the induction hob and turn on the hob.
Recommended cooking pots/pans sizes
The detection of cooking pots/pans by the induction hobs depend on the
diameter and material of the ferromagnetic in the base of the
pots/pans. To ensure detection of the cooking pots/pans and achieve an
efficient cooking, the cooking pots/pans shall be selected as per the size of
your hob. The cooking pots/pans sizes recommended for hob sizes are given
above.
Boiling behavior may vary depending on the pot types, size of the pot and size
of the cooking zone. For a more homogenous boiling behavior, a one step larger
cooking zone might be used. To use a larger cooking zone does not cause
wasting of energy at induction hobs, because the heat is only created in the
relevant pot area.

Noise from the cooker during cooking
Some sounds may be heard from the cooker while cooking. These sounds are due
to the composition of the cooking vessel. These sounds are normal, they are
not a malfunction and they are a part of induction technology.
Possible noises and reasons
- Fan noise: The cooker is equipped with a fan that activates automatically according to the temperature of the appliance. The fan has various operating levels and operates at different levels as per the temperature.
- Lower buzz like the operating noise of a transformer: This is due to the nature of the induction technology. As the heat is transmitted directly to the base of the cooking vessel, such buzz sounds may be heard as per the material of the cooking vessel. Thus, different noises may be heard with different cookware.
- Cracking noise: The reason of this is the structure and material of the base of the cooking vessel. A cracking sound may be heard if the cooking vessel is made of various layers with different materials.
- Whining noise: A whining sound may be heard when two cooking zones on the same side of the cooker are used to cook with different cooking levels.
