Cookware for induction hobs

Cookware for induction cooking zones must be made of metal
and have magnetic properties. The base must be sufficiently
large.

Only use pots with a base suitable for induction.

This is how to establish the suitability of a pot

Conduct the magnet test described below or make sure that the
pot bears the symbol for suitability for cooking with induction
current.
Magnet test:
Move the magnet towards the base of your cookware. If it is
attracted, you can use the cookware on the induction hob.

Please note:
When using pans suitable for induction from certain
manufacturers, noises may occur which are attributable to the
design of these pans.

Wrong: the base of the pan is curved. The electronic unit cannot
determine the temperature correctly.

How to cut power consumption

The following are a few useful hints to help you cut your
consumption of energy and use your new induction hob and the
cookware efficiently.
• The base of your cooking pots should be the same size as the

cooking zone.

• When buying cooking pots, note that it is frequently the

diameter of the top of the pot that it indicated. This is usually
larger than the base of a pot.

• Pressure cookers are particularly low on energy and time

required thanks to the pressure and the fact that they are
tightly closed. Short cooking times mean that vitamins are
preserved.

• Always make sure that there is sufficient fluid in your pressure

cooker since the cooking zone and the cooker may be
damaged as a result of overheating if the pressure cooker
boils dry.

• Always close cooking pots with a suitable lid.
• Use the right pot for the quantity of food you are cooking. A

large pot which is hardly filled will use up a lot of energy.

Power settings

The heating power of the cooking zones can be set at various
power levels. In the chart you will find examples of how to use
each setting.

A higher power level may need to be selected for cooking pots
without a lid.

Residual heat display

The glass ceramic hob is equipped with an H as a
residual heat display.
As long as the H lights up after the cooking zone has
been switched off, the residual heat can be used for
melting food or for keeping food warm. 
The cooking zone may still be hot when the letter H no longer
lights up. Risk of burns!
The glass ceramic is not directly heated in the case of an
induction cooking zone; it is only heated up by heat reflected by
the pan.
Attention! If the device is switched off completely, no more
residual heat is displayed!
