Induction cooking

Advantages of induction cooking

Induction cooking represents a radical change from the 

traditional method of heating; the heat is generated directly in 

the pan. It therefore offers a number of advantages: 

Time savings for cooking and frying; since the pan is heated 

directly.

Energy is saved.

Care and cleaning are simpler. Foods that have spilt do not 

burn as quickly.

Heat and safety control; the hob supplies or cuts off power 

immediately when the control knob is turned on. The 

induction hotplate stops supplying heat if the pan is removed 

without having previously switched it off. 

Suitable pans

Ferromagnetic pans

Only ferromagnetic pans are suitable for induction cooking, 

these may be made from:

enamelled steel

cast iron

special cutlery for stainless steel induction pan 

To determine whether a pan is suitable, check to see if a 

magnet will stick to it.

Special induction pans

There is another type of pan specially made for induction, the 

base of which is not entirely ferromagnetic. Check the diameter, 

since this could affect detection of the pan, as well as the 

cooking results.

Unsuitable pans

Never use pans made from:

common thin steel

glass

earthenware

copper

aluminium 

Characteristics of the pan base

The characteristics of the pan base may affect the uniformity of 

the cooking results. Pans made from materials which help 

diffuse heat, such as stainless steel sandwich pans, distribute 

heat uniformly, saving time and energy.

Absence of pan or unsuitable size

If no pan is placed on the selected hotplate, or if it is made of 

unsuitable material or is not the correct size, the power level 

displayed on the hotplate indicator will flash. Place a suitable 

pan on the hotplate to stop the flashing. If this takes more than 

90 seconds, the hotplate will switch off automatically.

Empty pans or those with a thin base

Do not heat empty pans, nor use pans with a thin base. The 

hob is equipped with an internal safety system. However, an 

empty pan may heat up so quickly that the "automatic switch 

off" function may not have time to react and the pan may reach 

very high temperatures. The base of the pan could melt and 

damage the glass on the hob. In this case, do not touch the 

pan and switch the hotplate off. If it fails to work after it has 

cooled down, please contact the Technical Assistance Service.

Pan detection

Each hotplate has a minimum limit for detecting pans, which 

varies depending on the material of the pan being used. You 

should therefore use the hotplate that is most suitable for the 

diameter of your pan.

Double or triple hotplate

These hotplates can detect pans of different sizes. Depending 

on the material and properties of the pan, the hotplate will 

adapt automatically, switching on part or all of the hotplate and 

supplying sufficient power to obtain good cooking results.
