HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware.
Cookware for induction cooking zones
In induction cooking a powerful electromagnetic field generates an almost instant heat
inside the cookware.
Cookware material
•
correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, a multi-layer bottom (marked
as correct by a manufacturer).
•
not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob if …
• ... some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting..
• ... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible.
Cookware dimensions : induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom
of the cookware automatically to some limit. But, the magnetic part of the bottom of
the cookware must have a minimum diameter of approximately 3/4 of the cooking zones.
Operating noises
If you can hear
• cracking noise: cookware is made of different materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistling: you use one or more cooking zones with high power levels and the cook-
ware is made of different materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer to any defects.
Energy saving
• If possible, always put the lids on the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.
