NOISES MADE BY THE COOKTOP
- Induction cooktop may produce whistling or crackling sounds during normal operation. These sounds originate from the pots and pans due to characteristics such as multiple layers of material or uneven bottoms.
- These noises can vary depending on the pots and pans used and the amount of food inside them. They do not indicate any defects.
- Additionally, the induction cooktop is equipped with an internal cooling system to regulate the temperature of electronic components. Therefore, during operation and for several minutes after switching off the stove, the noise from the cooling fan may be audible.
- This is perfectly normal and essential for proper appliance functioning.
