General notes on cookware
▸ As far as possible ensure that the diameter of the base
of the cookware is the same size as the upper diameter
of the cookware.
▸ We advise against the use of cookware with a pressed
base as this type of cookware does not work with all in-
duction hobs.
▸ Some induction hobs have the melt, keep warm and
simmer functions. We recommend using cookware
without a concave base for these functions.
▸ Handles that are loose or hollow can produce a loud whistling noise.
▸ The adherence of the cookware to the hob surface is reduced during operation, and
the cookware can therefore be moved more easily.
▸ Thick pan walls absorb the vibrations and reduce the noise level.
Pan position
Position pots and pans on the hob so that the
steam is not drawn into the range hood over the
handles.
Energy-efficient cooking
For maximum energy efficiency and even heat distribution note the following:
▪
The base of the cookware must be clean, dry and smooth.
▪
Centre the cookware in the middle of the cooking zone.
▪
Use a well-fitting lid.
▪
Match the diameter of the cookware to the quantity of food to be cooked.
Coated cookware
▪
For frying, do not use a higher power level than «7».
▪
Coated cookware may be operated above level «7» provided that the bottom of the
pan is completely covered with liquid.
– The coating may otherwise become overheated and damaged.
Never use coated frying pans with automatic boost or PowerPlus.
