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.

Eddy current Top plate Magnetic force generating coil Magnetic lines of force

Genius Sensor Technology

Genius SensorPANASONIC KY-T937VF - Genius Sensor Technology - 1

Genius Sensor regulates the set temperature by quickly detecting the temperature on the base of the cookware. This is suitable for the following cooking modes:

(Left cooking zone)

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

sensor

■ Pan Frying Mode ■ Deep/Shallow Frying Mode

PANASONIC KY-T937VF - 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.

■ Only suitable for installation on heat and water resistant worktops such as marble, natural stone, solid wood (if cut out edges are sealed). ■ Mount onto other types of worktops only with the recommendation of the worktop manufacturer. ■ Remove the cushion from the underside of the appliance before flush fitting. ■ The internal width of the base unit must be at least as wide as the internal cut-out width for the hob. This is to ensure that the casing can be easily removed for maintenance. ■ Before sealing in, test that the appliance works. Grout the perimeter using a heat resistant silicone. Smooth the seal with a suitable finishing product. Follow the silicone instructions and do not turn on the appliance until the silicone is completely dry.
