Induction Cooking
Induction cooking is a very efficient method of cooking as it reduces heat loss between the pan and the
atmosphere by as much as 40%. This makes it extremely energy efficient, as well as offering immediate
heat-up, unlike traditional heating methods which require time to get to temperature.
The Induction cooker works by creating a magnetic field within suitable cookware, which causes an
instant build-up of heat to cook the food.
This appliance is intended to be used for commercial applications, for example in kitchens of restaurants,
canteens, hospitals and in commercial enterprises such as bakeries, butcheries, etc. but not for
continuous mass production of food.
Induction hobs can make a variety of noises for different reasons. Crackling and whistling
noises are often due to the construction of the pan or any utensil in it. Quiet humming
noises are due to the induction technology and are completely normal. The cooling fans for
the electronics may also be heard.
Pack Contents
The following is included:
• Freestanding induction cooker • Instruction manual
Buffalo prides itself on quality and service, ensuring that at the time of unpacking the contents are
supplied fully functional and free of damage.
Should you find any damage as a result of transit, please contact your Buffalo dealer immediately.
Installation
Warning: Incorrect installation, operation, maintenance or cleaning of the equipment, as
well as any modification can cause property damage and personal casualty. Fully read and
