TYPES OF PANS
This type of appliance can only operate with pans of special kinds.
The bottom of the pan must be iron or steel/iron to generate the magnetic field necessary for the
heating process.
Vessels made from the following materials are not suitable:
•
glass;
•
porcelain;
•
pottery;
•
Steel, aluminium or copper without magnetic bottom.
To check that a pan is suitable, simply place a magnet close to its bottom: if the magnet is attracted,
the pan is suitable for induction cooking. If no magnet is to hand, put a little water in the pan, place it
on a cooking zone and switch it on. If the symbol appears on the display instead of the power, the pan
is not suitable.
The pans used for cooking must have certain minimum diameters to ensure satisfactory operation.
Pans larger than the cooking zones can also be used, but it is important to ensure that the bottom of
the pan does not touch other cooking zones, and that it is always centred over the perimeter of the
cooking zone. (fig.10-11).
