Suitable Kitchenware for Induction Cooking Zones

Pots and Pans

• In principle all pots and pans with magnetic bases are suitable. These are steel, steel-enamel as well as cast-iron pots and pans.

• High grade steel pans with a mixed metal base (sandwich base, e.g.

Tefal with an aluminium/copper base) are suitable for induction only if the manufacturer has expressly marked them as such. In that case they have a ferromagnetic percentage in the base.

• If you wish to use a special type of pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, simmering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instructions.

• Aluminium, copper, brass, stainless steel pots and pans (unless specifically designated as suitable for induction), glass, ceramic or porcelain are not suitable for induction cooking zones. The cooking zone reacts as if it were being used without a pot or pan: Error code f.

Look for the label: Suitable for induction!

Suitability Test

If you are not sure if a pot or pan is suitable for cooking or frying on the induction cooking zone you can check this as follows:

• Place a pot filled with a little water (3-5 mm filling height) on the cooking zone.

Switch the cooking zone to full power (switch setting 9).

Caution: The pan base of suitable kitchenware heats up within a few seconds!

• You can also check this with a magnet. If it remains fixed to the base the pan is suitable for induction cooking zones.

Pan Size

Up to a certain limit the induction cooking zone adapts itself to the size of the pan base diameter. However, the pan base diameter must be of a minimum size, depending on the size of the cooking zone.

Diameter of the cooking zone 145 mm:

Minimum diameter of the pan base 110 mm

Diameter of the cooking zone 180 mm:

Minimum diameter of the pan base 145 mm

Diameter of the cooking zone 270 mm:

Minimum diameter of the pan base 180 mm
