Induction

The induction principle

An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When a cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field which impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats it up. The cooking zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.

An induction cooking zone only works when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on it (see "Pans").

Induction automatically recognises the size of the pan, i.e. heat is only generated in the area covered by the base of the pan.

The cooking zone will not work:

if it is switched on without a pan in place, or if the pan is unsuitable (non-magnetic base).

if the diameter of the base of the pan is too small.

if the pan is taken off the cooking zone when it is switched on.

If this happens, ß will flash in the relevant cooking zone display alternating with 0 or the power setting selected .

If a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone within 3 minutes, the ß will go out and you can continue as normal.

If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed on the cooking zone, the cooking zone and the hob will switch off automatically after 3 minutes.

Take particular care never to place cutlery or other metal objects on the hob. When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of metal items heating up with the danger of burning.

Switch the cooking zones off after use.

It offers four induction zones, including one expandable area, making it a versatile option for cooks who use various sizes of pots and pans. The PowerFlex technology enhances flexibility by allowing users to combine two zones into a larger cooking area, accommodating larger cookware or griddles.

For those focused on efficiency, the KM5942 and KM5945 models incorporate smart cooking technology, such as automatic power adjustment and residual heat indicators that enhance safety. These models come with three induction zones and feature a timer function that allows for precise cooking times, reducing the risk of overcooking.

Lastly, the KM5954 model features a sleek design with a sophisticated touch control interface, enabling users to adjust temperatures and settings with ease. This model maintains all the advanced safety features found in Miele's induction line, ensuring peace of mind while cooking.

All of these models are easy to clean, with smooth glass surfaces that resist stains and spills, contributing to the overall convenience of cooking and maintenance.
