So requires a large saucepan 6 filled with water another type of operation of the cooking area 3 as, for example, a frying pan with a fried egg. In particular, no cooking process may be started, if other metallic objects such as e.g. a fork or a Cooking spoons are on the stove.

The smaller this time difference DT, the better the quality of the vessel 6, so that a cooking process by the inverter 8 are started can.
  • time difference DT is adjustable in the control device 9 Exceeds minimum limit for the quality, then is a cooking process no longer effectively possible. This, for example, because the Vessel 6 is made of a material which is not suitable for induction heating is suitable. In such a case, the control device 9 takes the inverter 8 and thus also plate 5 is not in operation or it switches the inverter 8 and thus also this hob 3 off.
