Layout and Features of the Samsung Induction Cooktop

When you place your cookware on a cooking zone and you turn it on, the electronic circuits in your induction hob produce “induced currents” in the bottom of the cookware which instantly raises your cookware’s temperature.

As the pan is heated directly and not the glass, the efficiency is greater than in other systems because no heat is lost. Most of the energy absorbed is transformed into heat, giving your greater speed in cooking and frying.

Below is the layout of the cooktop and control panel. Further down you can also see what features the Induction cooktop offers.

Ceramic glass cooking surface: The appliance has a ceramic glass cooking surface and four rapid - response cooking zones

Touch control sensors: Your appliance is operated using touch control sensors.

Easy cleaning: One advantage of the ceramic glass cooking surface and the control sensors is their accessibility. The smooth, flat surface is easy to clean.

On/Off sensor: The “On/Off” control sensor provides the appliance with a separate mains switch. Touching this sensor switches the power supply on or off completely.

Control and function indicators: Digital displays and indicator lights provide information about settings and activated functions, as well as the presence of residual heat in the various cooking zones.

Safety shut-off: A safety shutoff ensures that cooking zones switch off automatically after a period of time if the setting has not been changed.
