Appliance description

i
The BORA induction wok pan HIW1 is ideal for the
induction wok cooktop CKIW and is available as an
accessory.
XX
Perform a magnet test, if necessary. If a magnet sticks to the
base of the utensils, they are normally induction compatible.
XX
Pay attention to the cookware bottom. The base of the
cookware should not show any sign of curvature (exception:
wok cooktop CKIW). Due to incorrect temperature monitoring
of the hob caused by the air gap between the cookware and
the temperature sensor underneath the hob, overheating may
occur. The bottom of the cookware must not have any sharp
grooves or sharp edges to avoid scratching the cooktop.
XX
Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly onto the
glass ceramic.
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. It
decreases or disappears if the power level is decreased.
XO
Crackling or whistling may occur due to the bases of
cookware 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
to run after the appliance has been switched off.
4.3.5 How the Hyper and HiLight cooktops
work (CKCH, CKCB)
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.

4.3.4 How the Induction cooktops work
(CKFI, CKI, CKIW)
An induction coil is located underneath an induction cooking
zone. If the cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a
magnetic field that acts directly on the base of the pot thus
heating it up. The cooking zone is only indirectly heated up by
the heat emitted by the pot. Cooking zones with induction only
work if the cookware has a magnetisable base.
Induction automatically takes into account the size of the used
cookware which means that only the area in the cooking zone
covered by the base of the pot is heated up.
XX
Observe the minimum pot base diameter.
Power levels
The high power output of induction cooktops results in the very
quick heating up of cookware. A slight adjustment is needed in
comparison to conventional cooking systems when selecting the
power level in order to avoid burning food.

Tab. 4.11 Recommendations for power levels
The specifications provided in the table are standard values.
Depending on the cookware and filling quantity, it is
recommended to either decrease or increase the power level.
