Choosing the right Cookware
•
Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking.
Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom
of the
pan.
•
You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a
magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is
attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.
•
If you do not have a magnet:
Put some water in the pan you want to check.
1.
2. If
does not flash on the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
• Cookware made from the following materials is unsuitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without
a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the
same size as the cooking zone. Use pans with diameters as large as the graphic on the
selected zone. A slightly wider pan will use energy most efficiently. Efficiency may be
less than expected if you use a smaller pan. The hob may not detect a pan smaller than
140 mm. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the induction hob - do not slide them as they may scratch the glass.
