zone. If cookware is not detected on a cooking zone, place
it on the cooking zone with the next smallest diameter.
Cookware Materials

4.1 Size and characteristics of the cookware
To be able correctly detect the cookware, you must take
the size and the material of the cookware into considera-
tion. All cookware bases must be perfectly flat and
smooth.
Properties
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be de-
tected.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be de-
tected.
If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than the
base of the cookware, only the area that is fer-
romagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat is
not distributed evenly.
These cookware bases reduce the ferromag-
netic area, which means that less power is
emitted to the cookware. This cookware may
not be sufficiently detected or may not be de-
tected at all, and therefore does not heat suffi-
ciently.
