Suitable cookware
i
The heating and heat-through times for the cookware
base, as well as the cooking results, are significantly
influenced by the structure and material of the cookware.
Cookware with this symbol is suitable for radiant heating
elements. The cookware used for radiant heating
surfaces must be metal and have good heat conducting
properties.
Suitable cookware is made of:
XO
stainless steel, copper or aluminium
XO
enamelled steel
XO
cast iron
XX
Pay attention to the cookware base. The bottom of the
cookware should not show any sign of curvature. Due to
incorrect hob temperature monitoring, this curvature may
cause the cookware to overheat. To avoid scratching the
cooktop, the base of the cookware must not have any sharp
grooves or sharp edges.
XX
Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly onto the
glass ceramic.
4.4.3 How the Tepan stainless steel grill PKT3
works
Under each grilling zone there is a heating element. When a
grilling zone is switched on, the heating element generates heat
that directly heats the grill surface.
Power adjustment and temperature ranges
The power is adjusted via temperature ranges that are shown in
the operating panel display in °C (temperature indicator).

Tab. 4.9 Tepan stainless steel grill temperatures
The power output of the Tepan stainless steel grill heats food
extremely quickly. A slight adjustment is needed in comparison
to conventional cooking systems when selecting the temperature
in order to avoid burning food.
Noises
The following noises may occur in the cookware when using
induction cooking zones, depending on the material and the
finish of the base:
XO
Humming may occur when using a high power level. This
decreases or disappears when the power level is decreased.
XO
Crackling or whistling may occur due to cookware bases being
made of different materials (e.g. sandwich base).
XO
Clicking sounds may occur during electronic switching
procedures, especially at low power levels.
XO
Whirring may occur when the cooling fan is switched on. In
order to increase the service life of the electronic system,
the cooktop is equipped with a cooling fan. The cooling fan
switches on automatically if the cooktop is used intensively.
You will hear a whirring sound. The cooling fan may continue
running after the appliance has been switched off.
4.4.2 How the Hyper and HiLight cooktops
work (PKC3, PKCB3, PKCH3)
Under the cooking zone is a radiant heating element with a
heating tape. When the cooking zone is switched on, the heating
tape generates radiant heat, which radiates to the cooking zone
and heats it up.
