6. HOB - HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!
Refer to the Safety chapters.
6.1 Cookware for induction
cooking zones
In induction cooking, a powerful
electromagnetic field almost in-
stantly generates heat inside the
cookware.
Cookware material
• Correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, a multi-layer bot-
tom (marked as correct by the manu-
facturer).
• Incorrect: aluminium, copper, brass,
glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if:
• Water boils very quickly on a zone set
to the highest heat setting.
• You can attach a magnet to the bot-
tom of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware
must be as thick and flat as possi-
ble.
Cookware dimensions: induc-
tion cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the
cookware automatically to some
limit. But the magnetic part of
the bottom of the cookware must
have a minimum diameter.
