3.2 Choosing the right Cookware
•
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 whose diameter is as large as
the graphic of the zone selected. Using a pot a slightly wider energy will be used
at its maximum efficiency. If you use smaller pot efficiency could be less than
expected. Pot less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob. Always centre
your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the Induction hob – do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
