Pots and pans and how to use them
Attention
•The pots and pans that can be used on this hob must be made of ferromagnetic material.
They can be made of enameied steel, cast iron or special pans of stainless steel for
induction. The diameter of the pan should be at least 11cm.
•To make sure a pan is suitable, try using a magnet to see if it sticks to the bottom of the
pan. Never use normal thin steel nor anything containing even just an amount of glass,
terracotta, copper or aluminium.
•The display of the cooking area will show if the pan is suitable, if the power indicator
flashes the pan is not suitable or the diameter of the bottom is too small for the diameter of
the cooking area.
•The pots and pans must be placed precisely in the middle of the cooking area.
•In some cooking areas an internal diameter is indicated,with a lighter outline,which advises
the user to go to a smaller cooking area,if available,with smaller diameter pan.This is to
obtain optimal performance and efficiency. You can however use pans with smaller
diameters than this limit.
