You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a
magnet. A pan is suitable if the base of the pan is attracted by the
magnet.
Suitable Unsuitable
Special stainless steel pans Earthenware
Class Induction Stainless steel
Hard-wearing enamelled pans Porcelain
Enamelled cast-iron pans Copper
Plastic
Aluminium
Attention
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:
• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel), if you
switch the hob on at a high setting when the pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to overheating or
to the use of too high a power level.
Attention
Never use pans with a misshapen base. A hollow or rounded base can
interfere with the operation of the overheating protection, so that the
appliance becomes too hot. This may lead to the glass top cracking and
the pan base melting. Damage arising from the use of unsuitable pans
or from boiling dry is excluded from the guarantee.
Minimum pan diameter
The diameter of a pan must be at least 12 cm. You will achieve the best
results by using a pan with the same diameter as the zone. If a pan is
too small the zone will not work.
Pressure cookers
Induction cooking is very suitable for cooking in pressure cookers. The
cooking zone reacts very quickly, and so the pressure cooker is quickly
up to pressure. As soon as you switch a cooking zone off, the cooking
process stops immediately.
