Helpful hints and tips
Use the induction cooking zones with
correct cookware.
Cookware for induction cooking zones
Important! For induction cooking zones a
strong electro-magnetic field creates the
heat in the cookware very quickly.
Cookware material
• correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel,
stainless steel, the bottom made of multi-
layer (with correct mark from a manufac-
turer).
• not correct: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if …
• ... some water boils very quickly on a
zone set to the highest heat setting.
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the
cookware.
The bottom of the cookware must
be as thick and flat as possible.
Cookware dimensions : induction
cooking zones adapt to the dimension
of the bottom of the cookware auto-
matically to some limit.
The noises during operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of differ-
ent materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels and
the cookware is made of different materi-
als (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to appliance malfunction.
