Helpful hints and tips
Cookware for induction cooking zones
Important! 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 automati-
cally to some limit. But, the magnetic
part of the bottom of the cookware must
have a minimum diameter of approxi-
mately 3/4 of the cooking zones.
Operating noises
If you can hear
• cracking noise: cookware is made of dif-
ferent materials (Sandwich construction).
• whistling: you use one or more cooking
zones with high power levels and the
cookware 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 be-
fore you start it.
• Stop the cooking zones before the
end of the cooking time to use residual
heat.
• The bottom of pans and cooking
zones must have the same dimen-
sion.
Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save the energy, the heater of the
cooking zone switches itself off earlier
than count down timer signal. The heat-
ing time reduction depends on cooking
level and cooking time.
