8. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
8.1 Cookware
For induction cooking zones
a strong electro-magnetic
field creates the heat in the
cookware very quickly.
Use the induction cooking zones with
suitable cookware.
• The bottom of the cookware must be
as thick and flat as possible.
• Ensure pan bases are clean and dry
before placing on the hob surface.
• In order to avoid scratches, do not
slide or rub the pot across the ceramic
glass.
Cookware material
• 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.
• The cooking zone efficiency is related
to the diameter of the cookware. The
cookware with a diameter smaller
than the minimum receives only a part
of the power generated by the
cooking zone.
• 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.
Refer to "Technical data".
Steam Vented Lids
To further optimize the cooking sessions
alongside the hood you can use the
special Steam Vented Lids with your
cookware. The lids are designed to direct
the steam produced inside the pot
towards the hood, minimizing unwanted
cooking smells and excessive humidity in
the kitchen. The lids are available to buy
separately in several sizes to fit most
common cookware types. For more
