material of the cookware into consideration. All cook-
ware bases must be perfectly flat and smooth.
You can use Cookware test to check whether your

Materials
Properties
Recommended cook-
ware
Stainless steel cookware in a sandwich
design that distributes the heat well.
This cookware distributes the heat evenly,
heats up quickly, and ensures that it can be
detected easily.
Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelled
steel, cast iron or special induction cookware
made of stainless steel.
This cookware heats up quickly and ensures
that it can be detected easily.
Suitable
The base is not fully ferromagnetic.
If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than the
base of the cookware, only the area that is
ferromagnetic heats up. As a result, the heat
is not distributed evenly.
Cookware bases with aluminium content.
These reduce the ferromagnetic area, which
means that less power is emitted to the
cookware. This cookware may not be suffi-
ciently detected or may not be detected at
all, and therefore does not heat sufficiently.
Not suitable
Cookware made from normal thin steel,
glass, clay, copper or aluminium.
Notes
¡
Do not use adapter plates between the hob and the
cookware.
¡
Do not heat up empty cookware and do not use
cookware with a thin base, as this may become very
hot.
