USE
Pans
Pans for induction cooking
Induction cooking requires a particular quality of pan.
Attention
• Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are
no longer suitable for use on an induction hob.
• Only use pans that are suitable for electric and induction cooking
with:
▷ a thick base (minimum 2.25 mm);
▷ a flat base.
• The best are pans with the 'Class Induction' quality mark.
Tip
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a magnet.
A pan is suitable if the base of the pan is attracted by the magnet.
Suitable
Special stainless steel pans
Class Induction
Hard-wearing enamelled pans
Enamelled cast-iron pans
Attention
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:
• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel), if
you switch the hob on at a high setting when the pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to overheating or
to the use of too high a power level.
