Unsuitable Cookware; Pan Detection - Gaggenau VI 230 620 Notice D'utilisation

▯ The ferromagnetic area will also be reduced if the
material of which the base of the cookware is made
contains aluminum, for example. This may mean that
the cookware will not become sufficiently hot or even
that it will not be detected.

Unsuitable Cookware

Do not ever use adapter plates for induction or cookware
made of:
Traditional stainless steel

Properties of the Base of the Cookware
The material(s) of which the base of the cookware is
made can affect the cooking result. Using pots and pans
made from materials that distribute heat evenly through
them, such as stainless-steel pans with a three-layer
base, saves time and energy.
Use cookware with a flat base; if the base of the
cookware is uneven, this may impair the heat supply.
No pan or improper size
If no pan is placed on the selected element, or if it is
made of unsuitable material or is not the correct size, the
power level displayed on the element indicator will flash.
Place a suitable pan on the element to stop the flashing.
If you take longer than 90 seconds to place a suitable
pan on the element, it will automatically turn off.
Empty Pans or Pans with a Thin Base
Do not heat up empty pans, or use pans with a thin base.
The cooktop is equipped with an internal safety system.
However, an empty pan may heat up so quickly that the
"automatic shut-off" function may not have time to react,
and the pan may reach very high temperatures. The pan
base could melt and damage the cooktop glass. In this
case, do not touch the pan and switch the cooktop off. If
the cooktop fails to work after it has cooled down, please
contact Customer Support.

Pan Detection

Each cooking zone has a lower limit for pan detection.
This depends on the diameter of the ferromagnetic area
of the cookware and the material of which its base is
made. For this reason, you should always use the cooking
zone that best matches the diameter of the base of the
pan.
