A word on induction cooking

Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology. It works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in the pan, rather than indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only because the pan eventually warms it up. This technology has a number of advantages over traditional radiant energy cooking:

Heat-up times are much faster.

Use is safer as no heating takes place unless a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone. As heat is transferred without loss, you save energy.

Before using your new cooktop

Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety and warnings’ section.

Make sure the cooktop is clean and free from any debris. Wipe with a clean damp cloth if necessary.

Using the touch controls

The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure. Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.

You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.

Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and there is no object (eg a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

One of the standout features of the CI365DT is its powerful induction technology. This type of cooking system uses magnetic fields to directly heat pots and pans, resulting in quicker cooking times and more efficient energy use.

The CI365DT boasts five cooking zones, each with varying power levels to accommodate different cooking methods. These zones allow for versatility, whether one is simmering delicate sauces or searing meats at higher temperatures. The precise temperature control of the cooktop is another noteworthy advantage, enabling users to achieve consistent results with ease.

In addition to performance, safety is a critical consideration with the CI365DT. The cooktop features a child lock function and an automatic shut-off feature, providing peace of mind in busy kitchen environments. Residual heat indicators inform users when the surface is still hot, further enhancing safety.

Another characteristic that sets the CI365DT apart is its intuitive touch controls. The digital interface is user-friendly, allowing cooks to adjust settings effortlessly with just a swipe of a finger. This modern design element not only improves usability but also contributes to the cooktop's sleek aesthetic.

The CI365DT is remarkably easy to clean. With a smooth glass surface, spills and splatters can be quickly wiped away, making it a practical choice for daily cooking. Additionally, the cooktop's edge design prevents food from falling beneath the surface, simplifying maintenance.

Overall, the Fisher & Paykel CI365DT is designed for both style and substance. Its induction cooking technology, safety features, intuitive controls, and ease of maintenance make it a standout option in the realm of modern cooking appliances. Whether you're an avid home cook or a culinary professional, the CI365DT offers a perfect blend of functionality and elegance, transforming the cooking experience into an enjoyable and efficient endeavor.
