Induction
Noises
When using an induction burner, the following noises can occur in the pan, depending on what it is made of and how it is constructed.
–Higher power settings may cause a buzz. This will decrease or cease altogether when the power setting is reduced.
–If the pan base is made of layers of different materials (e.g. a sandwiched base), a cracking sound may be heard.
–Whistling might occur if linked burners (see "Booster function") are being used on the highest setting at the same time, and the pans have bases made of layers of different materials.
–You may hear a clicking sound from the electronic switches, especially on lower settings.
The appliance has a cooling fan to help extend the life of the electronics. When the cooktop is being used at high levels for a long period of time, this will come on and you will hear a whirring sound. The fan may continue to run after the appliance has been switched off.
