Helpful hints and tips
INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic
field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.
Cookware for induction cooking zones
Important!
Use the induction cooking zones with
correct cookware.
Cookware material
•
correct:
cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless
steel, the bottom made of multi-layer (with correct
mark from a manufacturer).
•
not correct:
aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ce-
ramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob if …
• ... some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the
highest heat setting.
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick
and flat as possible.
Cookware dimensions
: induction cooking zones adapt
to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware auto-
matically to some limit.
The noises during operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials
(Sandwich construction).
• whistle sound: you use one or more cooking zones
with high power levels and the cookware is made of
different materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer to appliance
malfunction.
Energy saving
How to save energy
• If it is possible, always put the lids on the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food warm or to
melt it.
The cooking zone efficiency
The cooking zone efficiency is related to the diameter
of the cookware. The cookware with a smaller diameter
than the minimum receives only a part of the power
generated by the cooking zone. For the minimum diam-
eters see the Technical Information chapter.
