Induction cooking
en
Open the appliance door as infrequently as possible
■
when the appliance is in use.
It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
■
The cooking compartment stays warm. This reduces
the baking time for the second cake. You can place
two cake tins next to each other in the cooking
compartment.
For longer cooking times, you can switch the
■
appliance off 10 minutes before the end of the
cooking time and use the residual heat to finish
cooking.
Energy-saving advice
Always use the correct lid for each pan. Cooking
■
without a lid uses a lot more energy. Use a glass lid
to provide visibility and avoid having to lift the lid.
Use pans with flat bases. Bases that are not flat use
■
a lot more energy.
The diameter of the pan base must match the size of
■
the hotplate. Please note: pan manufacturers usually
provide the diameter for the top of the pan, which is
usually larger than the diameter of the pan base.
Use a small pan for small amounts of food. A large
■
pan which is not full uses a lot of energy.
Use little water when cooking. This saves energy and
■
preserves all the vitamins and minerals in
vegetables.
Select the lowest power level to maintain cooking. If
■
the power level is too high, energy is wasted.
Environmentally-friendly disposal
Dispose of packaging in an environmentally-friendly
manner.

A dvantages of induction cooking
I n d u c t i o n c o o k i n g
Induction cooking is very different from traditional
cooking methods, as heat builds up directly in the item
of cookware. This offers numerous advantages:
Saves time when boiling and frying.
■
Saves energy.
■
Easier to care for and clean. Spilled food does not
■
burn on as quickly.
Heat control and safety – the hob increases or
■
decreases the heat supply as soon as the user
changes the setting. The induction hotplate stops the
heat supply as soon as the cookware is removed
from the hotplate, without having to switch it off first.
Cookware
Only use ferromagnetic cookware for induction cooking,
such as:
Cookware made from enamelled steel
■
Cookware made from cast iron
■
Special induction-compatible cookware made from
■
stainless steel.
To check whether your cookware is suitable for
induction cooking, refer to the section on
~ "Cookware check".
To achieve a good cooking result, the ferromagnetic
area on the base of the pan should match the size of
the hotplate. If a hotplate does not detect an item of
cookware, try placing it on another hotplate with a
smaller diameter.
Some induction cookware does not have a fully
ferromagnetic base:
