O
perational cooktop sounds
Is there a low humming? This occurs when
cooking at high power. The cause of this is
the amount of energy which is transmitted
from the appliance to the cookware. This
sound will quiet or go away when the power
is turned down.
Is there a crackling? This sound occurs
when cookware is used which consists of
different materials. The noise is caused by
vibrations in the joint faces between the dif-
f
erent layers. It may change depending on the
amount and type of food being cooked.
Is there a fan noise? The electronics re-
q
uire a controlled temperature in order to
function reliably. The cooktop is fitted with a
fan which runs at various speeds according
to the temperature detected. The fan may
also continue to run even after the cooktop
has been switched off, if the temperature it
detects is too high.
