Electrolux EIS64383 User Manual page 17

Use the induction cooking
zones with suitable
cookware.
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, multi-layer
bottom (with a correct marking from a
manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper,
brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is suitable for an induction
hob if:
• water boils very quickly on a zone set
to the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as
possible.
Ensure pan bases are clean
and dry before placing on
the hob surface.
Cookware dimensions
Induction cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the cookware
automatically.
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The
cookware with a diameter smaller than
the minimum receives only a part of the
power generated by the cooking zone.
Refer to "Technical data".
8.2 Correct pans for Pan Fry
function
Use only pans with flat bottom. To check
if the pan is correct:
1. Put your pan upside down.
2. Put a ruler on the bottom of the pan.
3. Try to put a coin of 1, 2 or 5 Euro
Cent (or with similar thickness)
between the ruler and the bottom of
the pan.
a. The pan is incorrect if you can
put the coin between the ruler
and the pan.
b. The pan is correct if you cannot
put the coin between the ruler
and the pan.
8.3 The noises during operation
If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of
different materials (a sandwich
construction).
• whistle sound: you use a cooking
zone with a high power level and the
cookware is made of different
materials (a sandwich construction).
• humming: you use a high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs, the
pot is detected after you place it on
the hob.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not
indicate any malfunction.
8.4 Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone
before you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food
warm or to melt it.
