Tip

To check the suitability of your cookware:

Place the vessel on a cooking zone at power level 4.

If the display remains on, your cookware is compatible.

If the display flashes, your cookware cannot be used with induction cooking.

You can also use a magnet to test the cookware.

If a magnet "sticks" to the bottom of the cookware, it is compatible with induction.

•POWER SHARING

Under the pretense that only one zone is used with an adequate utensil covering the whole surface of the coil, and that power on the zone is adjusted to the maximum (‘12’):

-the maximum power output of 22 cm (9”) heating zone is 2.8 kW;

-the maximum power output of 16 cm (6 1/2”) heating zone is 2.2 kW.

If only one coil is employed, it can be utilized at its maximum power, but as soon as the other coil is turned on, the controls adjust the power on both coils automatically for ‘power sharing’. This power sharing is administered by unit’s microprocessors, which will alternate power between the two elements. There are two factors affecting improved power sharing on your cooktops.

The first is the application of an improved technology for power sharing - not using common relays, but rather semiconductors which makes power sharing quicker, thus more efficient. The second factor is that, when in a power-sharing mode, two zones can share full, 3.6 kW, power output of the inverter.

Note that the controls will not allow both zones to operate at full power, and the power will be adjusted automatically - e.g. if the power on one zone is adjusted to a maximum, and the other zone is turned on and power level also adjusted to its maximum, the power level on the first zone will automatically become lower. This change will be visible on digital displays. The controls are set in such a manner that the last instruction (command) given to an element is always a priority.
