6. HOB - HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
6.1 Cookware
For induction cooking zones
a strong electro-magnetic
field creates the heat in the
cookware very quickly.
Use the induction cooking
zones with correct cookware.
Cookware material
correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom
made of multi-layer (with correct mark
from a manufacturer).
not correct: aluminium, copper,
brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if:
some water boils very quickly on a
zone set to the highest heat setting.
a magnet pulls on to the bottom of
the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as
possible.
Cookware dimensions
Induction cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the
cookware automatically to some limit.
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The
cookware with a smaller diameter than
the minimum receives only a part of the
power generated by the cooking zone.
6.2 Minimum cookware
diameter
Cooking zone Minimum cook-
ware diameter
(mm)
Left rear — 145 mm 125
Right rear — 180 mm 145
Right front — 180 mm 145
Left front — 210 mm 180
6.3 The noises during
operation
If you can hear:
crack noise: cookware is made of
different materials (sandwich
construction).
whistle sound: you the cooking zone
with high power level and the
cookware is made of different
materials (sandwich construction).
humming: you use high power level.
clicking: electric switching occurs.
hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to hob malfunction.
6.4 Energy saving
If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
