To determine if a pot or pan is suitable,
check for the
stamped on the bottom). You can also
hold a magnet to the bottom. If it clings to
the underside, the pan can be used on an
induction hob.
To ensure optimum efficiency, always
use pots and pans with a flat bottom that
distributes the heat evenly. If the bottom
is not perfectly flat, this will affect power
and heat conduction.
How to use the pans
Minimum diameter of the pot/pan for the
various cooking zones.
To ensure that the hob functions prop-
erly, the pan must cover one or more of
the reference points indicated on the sur-
face of the hob, and must be of a suitable
minimum diameter.
Always use the hob that best corres-
ponds to the diameter of the bottom of
the pan.

Empty or thin-bottomed pots/pans
Do not use empty or thin-bottomed pots/
pans on the hob as this would prevent
controlling of the temperature or would
automatically switch off the cooking zone
if the temperature is too high, with the
risk of damaging the pan or the surface of
the hob.
If this occurs, do not touch anything and
wait for all components to cool down.
If an error message appears, refer to
"Troubleshooting".
Hint/tips
Noise during cooking
When a cooking area is active, it may
hum briefly. This is a characteristic of all
ceramic glass hobs and does not impair
the function or life of the appliance. The
noise depends on the pan used. If it
causes considerable disturbance, it may
help to change the pan.
Solution
Remove water or pan from the ceramic
glass surface and control panel.
Let the hob cool down.
Please check if the hob has sufficient
ventilation.
If the error persists, please contact the
After-Sales Service.
Let the hob cool down.
Use a suitable pan.
Do not heat empty pans.
Use a suitable pan.
The error is automatically cancelled
after 8 seconds and the cooking area
can be used again.
If any other errors occur, the pan must
be changed.
If the error persists, please contact the
After-Sales Service.
Check mains voltage and/or fre-
quency.
If necessary, contact the After-Sales
