Induction cooking
– the cool heat
Cooking is fun. Particularly if you use the best ingredients. Now you
too can experience the benefits of innovative induction cooktops by
Siemens. When cookware with a magnetic base is placed on the cooktop,
the coils below the ceramic glass surface create a powerful magnetic
field, inducing a current and generating heat instantly and directly to
the pan. So not only can you look forward to reduced cooking times
and increased safety, but you’ll also spend a lot less time cleaning up
afterwards. Once you’ve invested in our technology, you’ll wonder
how you ever did without it.
Induction cooktops are faster
Induction cooking is recognised as one of the quickest methods of
cooking while allowing instant and accurate temperature control.

Experience the benefits of induction cooking
Induction is recognised as one of the quickest, safest and most
efficient methods of cooking. When a pan with a magnetic base is
placed on the cooktop, the coil situated below the ceramic surface
creates a powerful electromagnetic field, which induces a current
and generates heat almost instantly and directly into the pan.
More efficient
The energy travels straight to your pot and heats its content, meaning
that virtually no energy is wasted. And because the heat arrives so
quickly, you use less electricity than you would with a conventional
cooktop.
Pans suitable for induction cooktops
Only pans with a ferrous/magnetic base can be used with induction
cooktops. To be certain that your cooktop performs at its best, make
sure you invest in a set of good quality pans. Look for pans with
a smooth, flat base – those with steel and aluminium sandwich
construction are particularly good at distributing heat. Check with your
pan manufacturer if you are not sure or simply apply a magnet to the
base of the pan (it must be magnetic). Siemens offer a range of suitable
induction cookware as optional accessories. These items have been
specially selected by Siemens, following intensive testing and will ensure
optimum performance when used with our induction cooktops.
