OPERATION
Cookware marking
Check if there is a sign on the label informing
that the pot is suitable for use on inductive
plates
Use magnetic pots (from enamelled sheet metal, ferrite stain-
less steel, cast iron), check them by trying to attach magnet
to the pot bottom (has to cling)
Stainless steel
Does not detect the pot presence
Except for pots from ferromagnetic steel.
Aluminium
Does not detect the pot presence.
Cast iron
High efficiency
Attention: the pots can scratch the plate.
Enamelled steel
High efficiency
Recommended pots with flat, thick and even bottom.
glass

Energy is well generated when the dimensions of a pot are equal to an induction cooktop.
The shortest and longest diameters are presented in the table below and they depend on
the quality of a dish.
While using smaller pots than the minimum diameters, the induction cooktop may not work.
