Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less energy.
Select the cooking zone to match the size of your pan. Centre the cookware on the hob.
Use cookware whose base diameter is the same dia-meter as the hotplate.
Tip: Cookware manufacturers often give the upper diameter of the saucepan. It is often larger than the base diameter.

• Unsuitable cookware or incompletely covered cooking zones consume a lot of energy.
  Cover saucepans with suitable lids.

• Cooking without a lid consumes considerably more energy.
  Lift lids as infrequently as possible.

• When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.
  Use a glass lid.

• You can see into the pan through a glass lidwithout having to lift it.
  Use pots and pans with flat bases.

• Uneven bases increase energy consumption.
  Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food.

• Large items of cookware containing little food needmore energy to heat up.
  Cook with only a little water.

• The more water that is contained in the cookware,the more energy is required to heat it up.
  Turn down to a lower power level early on.

• If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,you will waste energy.
  Product Information according (EU) 66/2014 can befound on the attached appliance pass and online onthe product page for your appliance.

Suitable cookware

Cookware that is suitable for induction cooking musthave a ferromagnetic base, i.e. it must be attracted bya magnet. The base must also match the size of the cooking zone. If cookware is not detected on a cookingzone, place this on the cooking zone with the next smallest diameter.

Size and characteristics of the cookware
To correctly detect the cookware, take the size and the material of the cookware into consideration. All cook-ware bases must be perfectly flat and smooth.
You can use Cookware test to check whether your cookware is suitable. You can find more information about this under →”Cookware test”, Page 18.

Notes

• Do not use adapter plates between the hob and the cookware.
• Do not heat up empty cookware and do not use cookware with a thin base, as this may become very hot.

Familiarising yourself with your appliance

Cooking with induction
In comparison to conventional hobs, induction technology brings with it a series of changes and has a number of benefits such as time savings when cooking and frying, energy savings as well as greater ease of cleaning and care. It also offers improved heat control as the heat is generated directly in the cookware.

Control panel
