IH Cooking Mechanism

IH (Induction Heating) refers to electromagnetic induction heating.

When electricity flows in the magnetic coils underneath the top plate, magnetic lines of force are produced.

The magnetic lines of force pass through metallic cookware when an eddy current is induced. The heat that is generated by the electrical resistance of the cookware is used for heating.

■ Autoboil Mode
■ Low Temperature Cooking Mode
■ Pan Frying Mode
■ Deep/Shallow Frying Mode

■ Pan Frying Mode
■ Deep/Shallow Frying Mode

PANASONIC KYB926SLEPG - sensor - 1

CAUTION

Do not use oil preheated by other appliances. Genius Sensor will not work efficiently and the oil could ignite.

Energy Saving Tips

■ Always place the correct lids on pans to keep the heat in.
■ Use the correct size of pan for the amount of food you are cooking.
■ Use the right size of pan for the diameter of the cooking zone. If the diameter of the pan is not the same as the cooking zone it is preferable to use a pan with a base that is larger in diameter than the cooking zone.
■ Put just enough water in the pan to cover vegetables. This will save energy.

■ Turn down the power level of the cooking zone once the cooking temperature is reached; simmer food rather than boiling it.
■ Use a steamer to cook vegetables, that way you can layer a number of vegetables on top of each other and still use one cooking zone. Alternatively, a pan with a divider can be used.
