Product description
The appliance is intended for household use only. The warranty conditions change if the appliance is used in gastronomic business.
Zelmer induction hob is designated to cook and heat food products. It operates based on the principle of the electromagnetic induction. Magnetic fi led which creates rotary currents is generated between the hob surface and the induction utensil. The flow of such currents causes to utensil as well as the food products inside the utensil to heat.
The induction hob may only be used with pans and cooking pots designated for induction cooking.
The generation of the magnetic fi led depends on the material of the pot underside.
The selection of utensils marked by this symbol on the underside or the packaging ensures that the utensils are designated for use with the induction hob.
It is recommended to use Zelmer pans and pots designated for use with induction hobs.
The advantages of induction:
Very short heating time. The removal of the utensil from the hob automatically stops the heating.
After placing the utensil again on the hob (within a minute), the hob will automatically restart heating.
Fast reaction upon the change of power.
back of open flame and glowing elements considerably reduces fire risk.
The heat is generated only in the pot thanks to which the energy is used solely for cooking purposes.
lower energy consumption.
Shorter cooking time.
The additional BOOSTER function considerably shortens the cooking time.
