Suitable cookware
o You should only use cookware with a base that is suitable for
induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the
packaging or on the bottom of the pan.
o 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.
o If you do not have a magnet, you can fill the pan with water and
place it on a cooking zone. If the buzzer does not sound and the
water is heating, the pan is suitable.
o Cookware made from pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper
without a magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic and
earthenware are not suitable.
o Do not attempt to heat items made of iron as this can cause
dangerously high temperatures.
o Do not place paper, aluminium foil, cloths or other unsuitable
materials into the induction hob for heating.
o Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
o Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat against
the glass and is the same size as the cooking zone.
o Use pans with a diameter as large as the induction zone. By
using a slightly wider pot, energy will be used at its maximum
efficiency. If you use a smaller pot, the efficiency of the hob
could be less than expected.
o Pots should have a diameter of between 12 cm and 18 cm to be
detected by the induction zone. Always centre your pan on the
cooking zone.
