general information
pans
GB 9
Induction cooking makes use of a magnetic field to generate
heat. This is why the bases of the pans have to contain iron
and therefore be magnetic.
You achieve the best result by using a pan that has the same
dimensions as the cooking zone. The minimum pan base
diameter is 12 cm.
suitable
You can check for yourself whether your pans are suitable
using a magnet.
A pan is suitable if:
• the base of the pan is attracted by the magnet;
• the pan is suitable for electric cooking.
You should only use pans with a thick (minimum 2.25 mm),
flat base which are suitable for induction cooking. The best
are pans with the "Class Induction" quality mark.
unsuitable
Pans with a base which is not magnetic or is not suitable for
electric cooking are unsuitable for use on the induction hob.

safety
what you should pay attention to
GB 8
Grains of sand may cause scratches which cannot be
removed.
• Only put pans with a clean base on the cooking surface.
• Always pick pans up to move them.
• Do not use the hob as a worktop.
A tip: slide the bottom of the pan across a damp cloth,
before you put the pan on the cooking surface. This will
prevent grains of sand or the like being transferred to the hob
surface.
Always pick pans up;
never slide them.
