GENERAL INFORMATION OF COOKTOP USAGE
Unsuitable pots/pans:
• Aluminium pots/pans
• Copper pots/pans
• Glass pots/pans
• Pottery
• Ceramic and porcelain
Recommendations:
• Use flat bottomed cooking pots/pans
only. Do not use pots/pans with convex
or concave bases.
• Use cooking pots/pans with thick,
processed bases only. If you use thin
based pots, these pots shall heat up very
quickly and the bottom of the pan may
melt and damage the cooking surface
and the appliance before the automatic
shut-off system is activated. Sharp
edges may cause scratches on the
surface.
• The bases of some cooking pots/
pans have a smaller ferromagnetic
field than its true diameter. Only this
area is heated by the hob. Therefore,
the heat is not evenly distributed and
the cooking performance is decreased.
Moreover, such cooking pots/pans
may not be detected by large induction
hobs. Thus, the cooking hob shall be
selected according to the size of the
ferromagnetic field.

• Some cooking pots/pans have a base
that contains non-ferromagnetic
materials such as aluminium. These
types of cooking pots/pans may not heat
adequately or may not be detected by
the induction hob at all. In some cases, a
bad pots/pans warning may appear.
Equal distribution of the cookware
on the right and left and center hobs
for the selection of hobs affects the
cooking performance positively while
cooking multiple meals on the induction
hobs.
Pan detection
The pan detection ensures a perfect
safety. The induction doesn't work:
• If there is no pan on the heating zone
or if this pan is not adapted to the
induction. In this case it is impossible
to increase the power and the display
shows [ U ]. This symbol disappears
when a pan is put on the heating zone.
• If the pan is removed from the heating
zone the operation is stopped. The
display shows [ U ]. The symbol [ U ]
disappears when the pan is put back to
the heating zone. The cooking continues
with the power level set before.
After use, switch the heat element off:
don't let the pan detection [ U ] active.
