The cookware manufacturers usually specify whether their products are suitable to induction.
To check if pans are compatible:
•
Put a little water in a pan placed on an induction heating zone set at level [ 9 ].This water
must heat in a few seconds.
•
A magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan.
Certain pans can make noise when they are placed on an induction cooking zone. This noise
doesn’t mean any failure of the appliance and doesn’t influence the cooking operation.
Pan dimension
The cooking zones are, within a certain limit, automatically adapted to the diameter of the pan.
However the bottom of the pan must have a minimum diameter according to the corresponding
cooking zone.
To obtain the best efficiency of your hob, please place the pan in the centre of the cooking zone.
