designation: Induction Gx
2.3.28 Heating of furniture or wrong functionality
An oversized cookware, which is exceeding the maximum cookware dimension and covering
unintended area, can heat up unintended areas. Furthermore, user interface keys can be covered. An
activation or deactivation of functions or induction can be not possible.
Use suitable and recommended cookware sizes mentioned in this document or the related
technical customer documentation or which are illustrated by the serigraphy.
2.3.29 Wrong serigraphy
A serigraphy is used that temperature sensor is not covered completely by the pot or that the touch
control keys are illustrated wrong. Electronic components as the user interface can be heated-up or
cookware can be placed wrong on the glass ceramic. These lead to a burning hazard by oil ignition or
heating of furniture. Keys of the user interface cannot be activated.
Serigraphy must comply with cooking zones and touch control keys.
2.4 Avoidance of property damage
2.4.1 Empty cooking and insufficient cookware
The empty cooking protection works with many pots but cannot protect every pot from damages.
Pots with an embossing stamp in the bottom, the empty cooking protection does not work reliably if the
embossing punch is located directly on a multi-sensor and no further multi-sensors are covered by this
pot. This may overheat the cookware or glass ceramic surface and creates the risk of damage to
property.
Use induction hobs and cookers just with suitable cookware.
Do not cook empty or heat empty cookware.
2.4.2 Air gap
An air gap between cookware's bottom and glass ceramic surface (e. g. stamped imprints with the
manufacturer’s logo in the center point) will affect the temperature monitoring significantly and may
cause damages (e. g. deformed bottom surfaces due to overheating).
To ensure a good temperature monitoring, the cookware’s bottom should be as even as possible.
2.4.3 Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
In case of electrostatic discharge, electric components of Gx induction can be damaged.
Requirements under IEC 61340-5-1:2007 Electrostatics must be observed (not valid for induction
coils).
2.4.4 Wrong voltage or frequency
Wrong voltage or frequency due to lightning or EMC disturbances from other devices, which do not fulfil
the standards.
Use the cooktop in the intended use.
Gx induction is compliant with valid EMC standards and EMF guidelines.
