Key Features
Auto switch-off
This automatically turns the element off or down in the event of overheating, or if you remove a pan.
Safety cut-out
All induction cooktops have this safety feature.
If a cooking zone is switched on for an extended period of time without the temperature being altered, it will switch itself off automatically.
Auto heat-up
Auto heat-up allows the cooking zone to heat to a higher setting, then automatically turn down to a preset setting after a certain amount of time.
For example, you're cooking rice via the absorption method, when you want to bring it to the boil initially and then simmer.
Protection against overflows
The induction cooktop may shut down and a beep may sound should a spill overflow onto the controls. Clean the spill, then begin cooking again.
Pan detection
The induction cooktop won't work if there's no pan on the heating zone or the pan isn't suitable. Also, if the pan is removed from the cooking zone, the operation is stopped and a symbol is displayed.
The symbol disappears when the pan is put back to the heating zone and cooking continues with the power level set before.
If unsuitable cookware is used, a symbol indicates this and after a short period of time the cooking zone switches itself off.
Child lock
Gives you the ability to lock the controls, so only the user can operate the unit.
Controls
Touch control buttons or sliders control the heat setting you wish to select.
Power on/residual heat light
These bright and red, letting you know the surface is still warm.
Pause
They all come with a pause button that temporarily reduces your heat setting. Press the pause function again and it resumes at the original temperature.
Great if someone comes to the door in the middle of cooking.
Wok cooking
There are models that have a specially indented area for wok cooking.
These models can be quite pricey, and you'd want to use your wok a lot to justify the dedicated cooking area.
Alternatively, you can buy an compatible wok to use on any induction cooktop.
