The Right Cookware - Hanseatic HHI6417SM User Manual

Page GB-10 The hob
– Fan noise
For the electronics inside the hob to work
properly, a certain ambient temperature
must not be exceeded. For this reason
the hob is equipped with a fan, which – in
this hob – switches on automatically when
one of the cooking zones is activated, and
which continues to run for some time after
the hob has been switched off. This noise
is likewise completely normal and is not an
indication that there is a technical fault or
that the product is of poor quality.

The right cookware

Use only cookware that is suitable
for induction hobs. Look for the in-
Induktion
duction symbol on the bottom of the
cookware or on the cookware packaging.
It is best to use ferromagnetic crockery made
of enamelled steel, cast iron or special stain-
less-steel induction crockery. Your cookware
is suitable if the pot or pan bottom can attract
a magnet. Cookware made of stainless steel,
glass, ceramics, copper or aluminium, which
are not ferromagnetic, is unsuitable. The hob
does not recognise these materials.
The cookware is suitable if, when the cook-
ing zone is switched on, the
not blink but instead displays the heat setting
beside the cooking zone sensor and the con-
tents of the pot are heated.
Use vessels with
– sufficient base thickness, e.g. enamelled
steel pans with a thickness of 2-3 mm and
stainless steel pans with a thickness of
4-6 mm.
– energy- and time-saving steam pressure
cookers. The relatively high purchase
costs are quickly recouped.
You should not use:
– Indented or battered pans.
– Pans with a rough base.
– Pans with a rounded base. Only use cook-
ware with a smooth, even base.
– Coated cookware that is scratched inside.
Pot recognition is installed in the cooking
zones. Pot recognition ensures that the cook-
ing zone is switched on only when
– there is actually a pot with a magnetic bot-
tom located in the cooking zone.
– the size of the pot or pan corresponds to
that of the cooking zone, since the cook-
ing zone will not be activated if the vessel
is too small. A pot with a diameter smaller
than 140 mm will not be recognised.
– the pot has been placed in the middle of
the cooking zone.
Using a pot that is slightly larger than the
cooking zone will allow you to achieve the
indicator does
most efficient use of energy.
– The diameter d1 is always given as the
size of the pot or pan. Base diameter d2 is
always around 2 cm smaller.
– As soon as the pot is removed, the cooking
zone shuts off and the ' ' symbol appears
in the cooking zone display instead of the
heat setting.
