Pans for induction cooking
Induction cooking requires a particular quality of pan.
Attention
• Pans that have already been used for cooking on a gas hob are
no longer suitable for use on an induction hob.
• Only use pans that are suitable for electric and induction cooking
with:
▷ a thick base (minimum 2.25 mm);
▷ a flat base.
• The best are pans with the ‘Class Induction’ quality mark.
Tip
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable using a magnet.
A pan is suitable if the base of the pan is attracted by the magnet.
Suitable Unsuitable
Special stainless steel pans Earthenware
Class Induction Stainless steel
Hard-wearing enamelled pans Porcelain
Enamelled cast-iron pans Copper
Plastic
Aluminium
Attention
Be careful with enamelled sheet-steel pans:
• the enamel may chip (the enamel comes loose from the steel), if
you switch the hob on at a high setting when the pan is (too) dry;
• the base of the pan may warp - due, for example, to overheating or
to the use of too high a power level.
Attention
• Grains of sand may cause scratches which cannot be removed.
Only put pans with a clean base on the cooking surface and always
pick pans up to move them.
• Do not use the hob as a worktop.
• Always keep the lid on the pan when cooking, in order to avoid
energy loss.
