5.1 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.

Refer to “Technical

information” chapter.

5.2 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.

5.3 Energy saving

• If it is possible, always put the lids on

the cookware.

• Put cookware on a cooking zone

before you start it.

• Use the residual heat to keep the

food warm or to melt it.

5.4 Öko Timer (Eco Timer)

To save energy, the heater of the

cooking zone deactivates before the

count down timer sounds. The difference

in the operation time depends on the

heat setting level and the length of the

cooking operation.

5.5 Examples of cooking

applications

The relation between the heat setting

and the cooking zone consumption of

power is not linear. When you increase

the heat setting, it is not proportional to

the increase of the cooking zone

consumption of power. It means that the

cooking zone with the medium heat

setting uses less than a half of its power.

The data in the table is for

guidance only.
