5. HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
For induction cooking zones a strong
electro-magnetic field creates the heat
in the cookware very quickly.
5.1 Cookware for induction
cooking zones
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 possi-
ble.
Cookware dimensions: induction cook-
ing zones adapt to the dimension of the
bottom of the cookware automatically to
some limit.
Touch for 3 seconds. The displays
come on and go out. Touch
onds. comes on, because the sound
is off. Touch ,
sound is on.
5.2 The noises during
operation
If you can hear
• crack noise: cookware is made of dif-
ferent materials (Sandwich construc-
tion).
• whistle sound: you use one or more
cooking zones with high power levels
and the cookware is made of different
materials (Sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power levels.
• clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not re-
fer to appliance malfunction.
5.3 Energy saving
How to save energy
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone be-
fore you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food
warm or to melt it.
The cooking zone efficiency
The cooking zone efficiency is related to
the diameter of the cookware. The cook-
ware with a smaller diameter than the
minimum receives only a part of the
power generated by the cooking zone.
For the minimum diameters see the
Technical Information chapter.
