General notes on cookware
▸ As far as possible ensure that the dia-
meter of the base of the cookware is
the same size as the upper diameter
of the cookware.
▸ We advise against the use of cook-
ware 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.
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
▪ Coated cookware may be operated above power level «7» provided that the bottom of
the pan is completely covered with liquid.
– The coating may otherwise become overheated and damaged.
▪ For frying, do not use a higher power level than «7».
Never use PowerPlus with coated frying pans.
