cookware
Check for marking indicating that the
cookware is suitable for induction
cooking.
Use magnetic cookware (enamelled steel, ferrite sta-
inless steel, cast iron). The easiest way to determine
if your cookware is suitable is to perform the „magnet
test”. Find a generic magnet and check if it sticks to
the base of the cookware.

In order to achieve best cooking results, use cookware with bottoms (ferromagnetic part)
of the size corresponding to the size of the cooking zone.
● Using cookware with the bottom diameter smaller than the cooking zone size will reduce
the effectiveness of the cooking zone and increase cooking time.
● Cooking zones have a lower pot detection limit that depends on the diameter of ferromag

netic part of the pot bottom and the pot material. The use of an unsuitable pot might lead
to pot being undetected by a cooking zone.
