During the first few hours of use there may be a smell of rubber which will disappear very quickly. A few seconds after the hob is connected to the electricity supply, a buzzer will sound. Types of noise during normal hob operation: • Buzz: due to the vibration of the metallic parts that make up the induction element and the pot; it is generated by the electromagnetic field required for heating and increases as the power of the induction element increases. • Soft whistle: heard when the pot placed on the heating zone is empty; the noise disappears once food or water is placed into the pot. • Crackle: produced by the vibration of materials on the bottom of the pot due to the flow of parasitic currents caused by electromagnetic fields (induction); can be more or less intense depending on the material making up the bottom of the pot, and decreases as the pot dimensions increase.
