Suitable pans
When using non-stick pans,
do not use level 9 or Power,
as the non-stick coating may
be damaged by the high
induction heat.
· The induction hob can only be
turned on when a cooking utensil
with a magnetic base is placed on
one of the zones. You can use the
following utensils:
· Pots marked as suitable for
induction.
· Cast iron pans. Make sure the
base is smooth. A rough base
could scratch the vitroceramic
hob.
· Enamelled steel pans. Make sure
the enamel is suitable for use on
vitroceramic surfaces. Some
enamels can scratch the vitroce-
ramic hob.
You can test whether your pans are
suitable by placing a magnet on their
base. If the magnet sticks, the pan is
suitable.
Unsuitable pots
Pans made of aluminium, copper,
brass, glass, porcelain and steel and
which do not have a magnetic base.
Size of pots
The zones automatically adapt their
size to the base of the cooking uten-
sil, within certain limits. The pots
must have a definite minimum size,
which will depend on the diameter
of the zone, otherwise the zone will
not turn on.
Small zone: Ø 14 cm.
Base of cooking utensil min: Ø 10
cm.
Medium cooking zone: Ø 18 cm.
Base of cooking utensil min: Ø 14.5
cm.
Large zone: Ø 21 cm.
Base of cooking utensil min: Ø 18
cm.
Check the base diameter
when buying, as pan manu-
facturers often give the
diameter of the top edge of
the pan.
