8. HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.

8.1 Cookware

For induction cooking zones a strong electro-magnetic field creates the heat in the cookware very quickly.

Use the induction cooking zones with suitable cookware.

  • To prevent overheating and improve the performance of the zones, the cookware must be as thick and flat as possible.
  • Ensure cookware bases are clean and dry before placing on the hob surface.
  • Always be careful no to slide or rub the cookware on the edges and corners of the glass as it may chip or damage the glass surface.

Cookware material

  • correct: cast iron, steel, enamelled steel, stainless steel, multi-layer bottom (with a correct marking from a manufacturer).
  • not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.

Cookware is suitable for an induction hob if:

  • water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.
  • a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.

Cookware dimensions

  • Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware automatically.
  • The cooking zone efficiency is related to the diameter of the cookware. The cookware with a diameter smaller than the minimum receives only a part of the power generated by the cooking zone.
  • For both safety reasons and optimal cooking results, do not use cookware larger than indicated in “Cooking zones specification”. Avoid keeping cookware close to the control panel during the cooking session. This might impact the functioning of the control panel or accidentally activate hob functions.

Refer to “Technical data”.

8.2 Noises during operation
If you can hear:

  • crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction).
  • whistle sound: you use a cooking zone with a high power level and the cookware is made of different materials (a sandwich construction).
  • humming: you use a high power level.
  • clicking: electric switching occurs.
  • hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.

The noises are normal and do not indicate any malfunction.

8.3 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.

8.4 Simplified cooking guide
The correlation between the heat setting of a zone and its consumption of power is not linear. When you increase the heat setting, it is not proportional to the increase of the consumption of power. It means that a cooking zone with the medium heat setting uses less than a half of its power.

The data in the table is for guidance only.
