Cookware for induction cooking zones
The induction burner can only be turned on when cookware with a magnetic base is
placed on one of the cooking zones. You can use the cookware identified as suitable
below.

NOTE
• Cookware appropriate for induction cooking is labelled as suitable by the manufacturer.
• Certain cookware can make noises when being used on induction cooking zones.
These noises do not indicate that the cooktop is malfunctioning and do not affect its
operation in any way.
• Special stainless-steel cookware may not be suitable for induction cooking. Check if the
base of the cookware is attracted by a magnet.
Other induction cookware
You can use induction cookware whose base is not solely ferromagnetic.
• When using large cookware with a
smaller ferromagnetic element, only
the ferromagnetic element heats
up. Consequently, heat might not be
uniformly distributed.
• Cookware with an aluminum base will
reduce the ferromagnetic strength. This
type of cookware may cause heat to be
distributed less efficiently or may not
be sensed by burners.
• For best results, use cookware whose
ferromagnetic diameter match that of a
burner. If the cookware is not sensed by
the burner, try a smaller sized burner.
