Which types of pan are most suitable?
You probably already have some suitable pans.
• PANS MADE OF ENAMELLED STEEL WITH OR WITHOUT NON - STICK COATING .
• CAST IRON PANS WITH OR WITHOUT ENAMELLED BASE
To prevent the ceramic top on your hob from being scratched you are advised
to choose a pan with an enamelled base.
• STAINLESS STEEL PANS DESIGNED FOR INDUCTION COOKING
Most stainless steel pans are suitable for induction cooking (casseroles, sauce-
pans, frying pan, deep fryer, etc.).
• ALUMINIUM PANS WITH SPECIAL BASE
C HOOSE PANS WITH A HEAVY BASE , WHICH WILL ENSURE MORE EVEN COOKING RESULTS ( THE HEAT IS
BETTER DISTRIBUTED ).
• NB. E VEN PANS WHICH DO NOT HAVE A COMPLETELY FLAT BASE MAY BE SUITABLE , HOWEVER , THEY
MUST NOT BE TOO MISSHAPEN .
This hob carries the symbol.
By choosing a pan bearing the same symbol, you will be assured of its complete com-
patibility with your hob, under normal conditions of use.
To help you in your choice, a list of utensils is supplied with this instruction book.
Which materials are incompatible?
P ANS MADE OF GLASS , CERAMIC OR EARTHENWARE , OR OF ALUMINIUM WITHOUT A SPECIAL BASE OR OF COPPER ,
OR OF CERTAIN TYPES OF NON - MAGNETIC STAINLESS STEEL .
The “pan” test
Your induction hob is capable of recognising most types of pan.
Place your pan on a heating zone at power setting 4; if the display does not
flash your pan is compatible, if it flashes then your pan cannot be used for
induction cooking.
You can also use a magnet: if it does not “stick” to the pan, then the pan is not
suitable for induction cooking.
