How INDUCTION heating works
There is an electronic circuit inside the induction hob
which powers and commands a coil. This creates
a magnetic field which activates when it comes
into contact with suitable pots and pans (magnetic
material).
The pan on the hob warms up instantly, while the hob
remains cold.
There is no loss of heat. The heat generated in the pan
lets you cook quickly, saving time and energy..

Pots and pans and how to use them.
Attention!
The pots and pans that can be used on this hob must
be made of ferromagnetic material. They can be made
of enameled steel, cast iron or special pans of stainless
steel for
induction.
To make sure a pan is suitable, try using a magnet
to see if it sticks to the bottom of the pan. Never use
normal thin steel nor anything containing even just an
amount of glass, terracotta, copper or aluminium.
The display of the cooking area will show if the pan is
suitable, if the power Indicator flashes the pan is not
suitable or the diameter of the bottom is too small for
the diameter of the cooking area.
The pots and pans must be placed precisely in the
middle of the cooking area.
Some models of hob have a double area: automatic
recognition of the pan will determine whether the
external area is used or not.
In some cooking areas an internal diameter is indicated,
with a lighter outline.
