5.3.5 Suitable cookware
INFO The heating and heat through time for the base
of the cookware as well as the cooking results
are significantly influenced by the structure and
material of the cookware.
Cookware with this symbol is suitable for
induction cooktops.
The cookware used for the induction cooktop
must be made of metal, feature magnetic prop-
erties and possess a sufficient bottom surface.
Suitable cookware is made of:
stainless steel with a magnetisable base
enamelled steel
cast iron
Cooking zone Minimum diameter
Front 120 mm
Back 90 mm
Tab. 5.3 Minimum cookware diameter
Perform a magnet test, if necessary. If a magnet sticks
to the base of the utensils, they are normally induction
compatible.
Pay attention to the cookware bottom. The base of
the cookware should not show any sign of curvature.
Due to incorrect temperature monitoring of the hob
caused by the air gap between the cookware and the
temperature sensor underneath the hob, overheating
may occur. The bottom of the cookware must not have
any sharp grooves or sharp edges to avoid scratching
the cooktop.
Place the cookware (without a mat or similar) directly
onto the glass ceramic.
Noises
The following noises may occur in the cookware when
using induction cooking zones, depending on the material
and the finish of the base:
The induction automatically takes into account the size of
the used cookware which means that only the area in the
cooking zone covered by the base of the pot is heated up.
Observe the minimum pot base diameter.
The cooking zone does not work
If it is switched on without cookware or with unsuitable
cookware.
If the base diameter of the cookware is too small.
If the cookware is removed from a cooking zone that is
switched on.
In the case of cookware that is unsuitable or too small,
v
appears in the cooking zone display.
5.3.1 Power levels
The high power output of induction cooktops results in
the very quick heating up of cookware. A slight adjust-
ment is needed in comparison to conventional cooking
systems when selecting the power level in order to avoid
burning food.
