INDUCTION COOKWARE
COOKWARE
SUITABLE
FOR
AN
INDUCTION HOB
The induction will work correctly if you use
suitable cookware.
Make sure the pot or pan is in the middle of the
cooking zone.
Suitable cookware includes cookware made of
steel, enamel-coated steel pans, or cast iron
pans.
Unsuitable cookware: alloy steel cookware with
copper or aluminium bottom, and glass cookware.
The magnet test: Use a small magnet to check
whether the pan or pot bottom is ferromagnetic. If
the magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan, then it
is suitable for an induction cooker.
When using a pressure cooker, keep an eye on it
until the right pressure is reached. First, set the
cooking zone to maximum power; then, following
the pressure cooker manufacturer's instructions,
use the relevant sensor to decrease the cooking
power at the right time.
Make sure there is enough liquid in the pressure
cooker, or any other pot or pan. Due to
overheating, using an empty pot on the cooking
zone may result in damage to both the pot and
the cooking zone.
When using special cookware, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
Only use cookware with flat bottom! Concave or
convex (indented or bulging) bottom may impede
the operation of overheat protection mechanism
and the cooking hob may become too hot. This
could lead to cracks in the glass surface and
melting of the pan bottom. In case of damage
resulting from the use of unsuitable cookware or
overheating of empty, dried-out pots or pans (with
nothing in them), the warranty is void.
Only use cookware suitable for electric and
induction cooking, with a:
thick bottom (at least 2.25 mm)
flat bottom.

ATTENTION!
When using induction build-in hobs, do not
insert any additional equippment (for instance
so called reduction rings or induction base,
which make cookware with nonmagnetic base
possible to use) between the base of cookware
and the surface of glass ceramic hob. Aplication
of such an equippment can cause damage of the
appliance and a high risk of burning is there.
PAN RECOGNITION
If the pan is much smaller than the cooking zone,
there is a possibility that it will not be recognized
by the cooking zone. When the cooking zone is
activated, the sign "
u
" will appear on the cooking
power display. If a pan is placed on the induction
cooking zone within the next ten minutes, the hob
will recognize it and switch on with the selected
cooking power. As soon as the pan is removed
from the cooking zone, the power supply is cut
off.
If a smaller pan or pot is placed on the cooking
zone and it is recognized, the hob will only use as
much power as necessary given the pan size.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
When purchasing cookware, note that the
diameter indicated on the pan usually pertains to
the upper edge or the lid, which is normally larger
than the diameter of the pan bottom.
