6.1 Cookware for induction
cooking zones
In induction cooking, a powerful
electromagnetic field almost in-
stantly generates heat inside the
cookware.
Cookware material
• Correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, a multi-layer bot-
tom (marked as correct by the manu-
facturer).
• Incorrect: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if:
• Water boils very quickly on a zone set
to the highest heat setting.
• You can attach a magnet to the bottom
of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as possi-
ble.
Cookware dimensions: induc-
tion cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the
cookware automatically to some
limit. But the magnetic part of the
bottom of the cookware must
have a minimum diameter.

6.2 Noises during operation
If you can hear:
• A cracking noise: the cookware is
made of different materials (Sandwich
construction).
• A whistle sound: one or more cooking
zones operate with high power levels
and the cookware is made of different
materials (Sandwich construction).
• Humming: one or more cooking zones
operate with high power levels.
• Clicking: electric switching occurs.
• Hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not in-
dicate a malfunction of the appliance.
