Induction
24
How it works
An induction coil is located under each
cooking zone. The coil creates a mag-
netic field that reacts directly with the
base of the pan and heats it up. The
cooking zone itself is heated up indi-
rectly by the heat given off by the pan.
An induction cooking zone only works
when a piece of cookware with a mag-
netic base is placed on it (see “Cook-
ware”). The induction cooking zone au-
tomatically recognizes the size of the
cookware.
Risk of burning due to hot items.
When the cooktop is switched on ei-
ther deliberately or by mistake, or
when there is residual heat present,
there is the risk of metal items placed
on the cooktop heating up.
Do not store items on the cooktop.
After use, switch the cooktop off with
the sensor control.
Cookware
Suitable cookware
- Stainless steel with a magnetic base
- Enameled steel
- Cast iron
The composition of the pan bottom can
affect the evenness of the cooking re-
sults (e.g., when making pancakes). The
base of the pan must be able to distrib-
ute the heat evenly. A sandwich base
made of stainless steel is particularly
suitable.
Unsuitable cookware
- Stainless steel without a magnetic
base
- Aluminum or copper
- Glass, ceramics, earthenware,
stoneware
Testing cookware
To test whether a pot or pan is suitable
for use on an induction cooktop, hold a
magnet to the base of the pan. If the
magnet sticks, the cookware is gener-
ally suitable.
