Cookware
Appliances of this type require special cookware to be able to work. In fact, the cookware must have an
iron or steel/iron bottom to generate the magnetic field necessary for it to be heated up. Recipients made
of the following are not suitable:
- glass;
- ceramic;
- terracotta;
- steel, aluminium or copper without a magnetic bottom.
To see whether the pan is suitable, bring a magnet close to the bottom: if it is attracted, the pan is
suitable for induction cooking. If you do not have a magnet, you can put a small amount of water in the
recipient, place it on a cooking zone and start the hotplate. If, instead of the power symbol, the symbol
appears, it means the pan is not suitable. The pans used for cooking must have a minimum diameter to
guarantee proper functioning. Below is a table with the minimum diameters for pans according to the
cooking zone.

diameter
Cookware that is larger than the cooking zones can also be used,
but care must be taken that the bottom of the pan does not come
into contact with other cooking zones and that it is always
centered on the cooking zone perimeter.
