Although your hob is equipped with an internal safety system, empty cookware can heat up so quickly that the "automatic OFF" function does not have time to react and a very high temperature may be reached. The base of the pan could melt and damage the hob's glass surface. Each hotplate has a minimum limit for pan detection which varies according to the material from which the pan being used is made. It is for this reason that you are recommended to use a hotplate which matches the diameter of the pan. No pan or incorrect size pan Empty pans or pans with a thin base Pan detection 11 Double or triple hotplate These areas can detect pans of different sizes.
