• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a
correct marking from a manufacturer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is suitable for an induction hob
if:
• water boils very quickly on a zone set to
the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
Cookware dimensions
• Induction cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the cookware
automatically. Place the cookware in the
centre of the selected cooking zone.
• The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. To ensure
optimal heat transfer use cookware with
diameter similar to the size of a given
cooking zone, no larger and no smaller
than recommended. To check the
recommended cookware diameter refer to
"Technical data" > "Cooking zones
specification".
– Cookware with a diameter smaller
than the declared minimum receives
only part of the power generated by
the cooking zone which results in
slower heating.
– For both safety reasons and optimal
cooking results, do not use cookware
larger than indicated in "Cooking
zones specification". Avoid keeping
cookware close to the control panel
during the cooking session. This might
impact the functioning of the control
panel or accidentally activate hob
functions.

8.2 Noises during operation
If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of different
materials (a sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use a cooking zone
with a high power level and the cookware
is made of different materials (a sandwich
construction).
• humming: you use a high power level.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not indicate
any malfunction.
8.3 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the cooking
zone deactivates before the count down timer
sounds. The difference in the operation time
depends on the heat setting level and the
length of the cooking operation.
8.4 Simplified cooking guide
The correlation between the heat setting of a
zone and its consumption of power is not
linear. When you increase the heat setting, it
is not proportional to the increase of the
consumption of power. It means that a
cooking zone with the medium heat setting
uses less than a half of its power.
The data in the table is for guidance only.
