Choosing the Right Cookware
• Only use cookware with a base suitable for induction cooking. Look for the induction symbol on the packaging or on
the bottom of the pan.
• 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.
• If you do not have a magnet:
1. Put some water in the pan you want to check.
2. If “ ” does not flash in the display and the water is heating, the pan is suitable.
• Cookware made from the following materials is not suitable: pure stainless steel, aluminium or copper without a
magnetic base, glass, wood, porcelain, ceramic and earthenware.
Do not use cookware with jagged edges or a curved base.
Make sure that the base of your pan is smooth, sits flat on the glass and is the same size as the cooking zone. Using a
pot that is slightly wider means energy will be used at its maximum efficiency. If you use a smaller pot, efficiency could
be less than expected. Pots with a diameter of less than 140 mm could be undetected by the hob if placed on the
larger cooking zone. Always centre your pan on the cooking zone.
Always lift pans off the induction hob – do not slide as they may scratch the glass.

This means that:
• you have not placed a pan on the correct cooking zone or,
• the pan you’re using is not suitable for induction cooking or,
• the pan is too small or not properly centred on the cooking zone.
No heating takes place unless there is a suitable pan on the cooking zone.
