WHICH COOKING ZONE SHOULD YOU USE BASED ON YOUR COOKWARE?
When cooking large quantities of
food, it is always better to use a
large diameter pan and a larger
burner. More efficient heat
distribution will be achieved and
food will cook evenly.

To check the suitability of your cookware:
Place the vessel on a cooking zone at power level 4.
If the display remains on, your cookware is compatible.
If the display flashes, your cookware cannot be used with induction cooking.
You can also use a magnet to test the cookware:
If a magnet "sticks" to the bottom of the cookware, it is compatible with
induction.

-
With small cookware - but normally not smaller
then 10 cm (4”)
