1 Introduction
This section introduces you to the concept of induction cooking.
1.1 What is Induction cooking?
Induction cooking, is a technology that heats a cooking vessel by magnetic
induction – which in turn heats and cooks the food. This is because the
induction cooker is a powerful, high-frequency electromagnet. Induction
cooker needs electricity to operate.
For more information on Electromagnet, refer to Glossary on page 13.
hen a cooking vessel of magnetic material – for example, stainless steel or
cast iron – is placed on the induction cooker, the combination produces a
magnetic field. The magnetic field generated transfers (induces) energy into
that cooking vessel. This transferred energy causes the cooking vessel to
become hot.
Induction cooker is more energy-efficient, and provides faster and consistent
heating.
1.2 How induction cooking works?
This section describes how induction cooking works.
•In an induction cooker, a coil of copper wire (represented by red) is placed
under the cooking plate of the cooker. The coil produces high-frequency
electromagnetic field (represented by orange) when alternating electric
current passes through it. For more information on Electromagnetic field,
refer to Glossary on page 13.
•This resulting magnetic field interacts with the ferrous (magnetic material)
cooking vessel, producing heat.
•Heat generated in the cooking vessel is transferred to whats being cooked.
•As soon as the cooking vessel is removed from the cooker, or the cooker is
turned off, heat generation stops.

Power efficient: Auto cut off mode and cool cooking plate means energy will
not be wasted. Your induction cooker will automatically switch off, if it is
accidentally left on or is left unattended for a long time. Also the induction
cooker will only work if the cooking vessel is in contact with the cooking plate.
ith no cooking vessel on the induction cooker, no heat will be produced. This
means that there is no energy wastage. Also the induction cooker top (cooking
plate) barely gets warm, except directly under the vessel, which means there is
no wastage of heat.
Safety: As the induction cooker does not make use of open flame or fire, and
the cooking plate always stays cool there is no fear of burned fingers or hands.
Safety features like auto cut off and auto cooling makes it safer to use this
cooker.
Note: Be careful not to touch the utensil, as it gets hot when the induction cooker is
operating, or you may burn your fingers or hand.
Cookware compatibility and small object detector: Your induction cooker
comes with a cookware compatibility detector and small object detector. If the
cooking vessel is not compatible or it is smaller than recommended size, then
the cooker will start beeping with 2 second intervals.
