Tip
You can check for yourself whether your pans are
suitable using a magnet. A pan is suitable if the base
of the pan is attracted by the magnet.
Suitable
Special stainlesssteel pans
Class Induction
Hard-wearing enamelled pans
Enamelled cast-iron pans
Attention
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:
• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from
the steel), if you switch the hob on at a high setting
when the pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to
overheating or to the use of too high a power level.
Attention
Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded
base can interfere with the operation of the overheating
protection, so that the appliance becomes too hot. This may lead
to the glass top cracking and the pan base melting. Damage
arising from the use of unsuitable pans or from boiling dry is
excluded from the guarantee.
Minimum pan diameter
• The diameter of a pan must be at least 12 cm. You
will achieve the best results by using a pan with the
same diameter as the zone. If a pan is too small the
zone will not work.
Pressure cookers
• Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in
pressure cookers. The cooking zone reacts very
quickly, and so the pressure cooker is quickly up to
pressure. As soon as you switch a cooking zone off,
the cooking process stops immediately.
Unsuitable
Earthenware
Stainless steel
Porcelain
Copper
Plastic
Aluminium
