AWordonInductionCooking
Induction cooking is a safe, advanced, efficient, and economical cooking technology. It
works by electromagnetic vibrations generating heat directly in the pan, rather than
indirectly through heating the glass surface. The glass becomes hot only because the
pan eventually warms it up.
Before using your New Induction Hob
•Read this guide, taking special note of the ‘Safety Warnings’ section.
•Remove any protective film that may still be on your Induction hob.
Using the Touch Controls
•The controls respond to touch, so you don’t need to apply any pressure.
•Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
•You will hear a beep each time a touch is registered.
•Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (e.g. a
utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the
controls difficult to operate.

•Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the
induction symbol on the packaging or on the bottom of the pan.
•You can check whether your cookware is suitable by carrying out a magnet
test. Move a magnet towards the base of the pan. If it is attracted, the pan is
suitable for induction.
•If you do not have a magnet:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. Follow the steps under ‘To start cooking’.
3. If does not flash in the display and the water is
heating, the pan is suitable.
•Cookware made by the following materials is not
suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminum or copper
without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain,
ceramic, and earthenware.

Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.

size as the cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
