-

 Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on 
the packaging or on the bottom of the pan.

 

-

You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out 
a magnet test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is 
attracted, the pan is suitable for induction.

 

-

If you do not have a magnet:

1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.

2. If

 does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.

 

-

Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or 
copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic, and earthenware.

Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against the glass, and is the same size 
as the cooking zone. Use pans that have a diameter as large as the graphic of the zone selected. 
Using a pot slightly wider, will mean energy is used at its maximum efficiency. If you use smaller 
pot efficiency could be less than expected. Pot less than 140mm could be undetected by the hob. 
Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.

Always lift pans off the induction hob – do not slide them or they may scratch the glass.
