Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the size of the bottom of the cookware up to a
certain limit. However the magnetic part of the bottom of the cookware must have a minimum
diameter depending upon the size of the cooking zone.

Suitability test
Cookware is suitable for induction cooking, if a magnet sticks
to the bottom of the cookware and the cookware is labelled
as suitable by the cookware manufacturer.
Better pans produce better results.
You can recognize good pans by their bases. The base should be as thick and flat as possible. •
When buying new pans, pay particular attention to the diameter of the base. Manufacturers •
often give only the diameter of the upper rim.
Do not use pans which have damaged bases with rough edges or burrs. Permanent scratching
•
can occur if these pans pan are slid across the surface.
When cold, pan bases are normally bowed slightly inwards (concave). They should never be
•
bowed outwards (convex).
If you wish to use a special type of pan, for example, a pressure cooker, a simmering pan, or a
•
wok, please observe the manufacturer’s instructions.
Energy saving tips
You can save valuable energy by observing the following points:
Always position pots and pans before switching on the cooking •
zone.
Dirty cooking zones and pan bases increase power consumption.
•
When possible, position the lids firmly on the pots and pans to cover •
them completely.
Switch the cooking zones off before the end of the cooking time to
•
use the residual heat for keeping foods warm or for thawing.
