INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
For induction cooking zones a strong
electro-magnetic field creates the heat in
the cookware very quickly.
5.1 Cookware for induction
cooking zones
Use the induction cooking zones
with correct cookware.
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom made
of multi-layer (with correct mark from a
manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if ...
• ... some 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 possi-
ble.
Cookware dimensions: induction cook-
ing zones adapt to the dimension of the
bottom of the cookware automatically to
some limit.

5.2 The noises during operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of dif-
ferent materials (Sandwich construc-
tion).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels
and the cookware is made of different
materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not re-
fer to appliance malfunction.
5.3 Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the
lids on the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking
zone before you start it.
• Stop the cooking zones before
the end of the cooking time to
use residual heat.
• The bottom of pans and cook-
ing zones must have the same
dimension.
