Choosing the right cookware
Important!
• Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking.
Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or 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. Place a suitable pan on the cooking zone you wish to use. Make sure the bottom
of the pan and the surface of the cooking zone are clean and dry. Turn on the
cooking zone.
3. If does not ash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
Note: If the pan detection symbol does appear on the display, your pan is not
suitable and the worktop will not operate. After 10 minutes without detecting any
pan, the cooking zone
switches off automatically and can only be switched on after the control dial has
been returned to “0” (Off).
• Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel,
aluminium or copper without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic,
earthenware. Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits at against the glass, and is approximately
the same size as the cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the worktop– do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
