Carry out your own test!
You can easily test the suitability of the cookware yourself:
Hold a magnet next to the base of the pan. If there is a strong magnetic attraction, the cookware is
suitable. The induction hob only works with appropriate cookware. The appliance recognises if the
cookware is not suitable and behaves as if no cookware is on the hotplate: The hob doesn't switch on.
