Suitable materials: steel, enamelled steel, cast iron, ferromagnetic stainless steel, aluminium with
a ferromagnetic base.
Unsuitable materials: aluminium and stainless steel without ferromagnetic base, copper, brass,

Manufacturers specify whether their products are induction compatible.
To check if the pans are compatible:
· Add some water to a pot positioned on an induction heating zone set to the minimum level. This
water must heat up in seconds.
· A magnet sticks to the bottom of the pot.
Some cookware can make noise when placed on an induction cooking zone. This noise does not mean
that there is a fault with the appliance and it will not affect the cooking operation.
