on when one of the cooking zones/areas
is activated, and which continues to run for
some time after the hob has been switched
off.
This noise is likewise completely normal
and is not an indication that there is a
technical fault or that the product is of poor
quality.

The right cookware

Use only cookware that is suitable
for induction hobs. Look for the in-
Induktion
duction symbol on the bottom of the
cookware or on the cookware packaging.
It is best to use ferromagnetic crockery made
of enamelled steel, cast iron or special stain-
less-steel induction crockery. Your cookware
is suitable if the pot or pan bottom can attract
a magnet. Cookware made of stainless steel,
ceramic, copper or aluminium is not suitable.
The hob does not recognise these materials.
The following will be displayed if you try
to use them on the cooking zone/area. If the
cookware is suitable, the heat setting will be
displayed instead.
If possible, only use thick-bottomed cookware
or energy- and time-saving pressure cookers.
The relatively high purchase costs are quickly
recouped.
You should not use:
– Dented or battered pans.
– Pans with a rough base.
– Pans with a rounded base
– Coated cookware that is scratched inside.
– Too large or too small cookware.
Please also ensure that the cookware is
always placed in the middle of the cooking
zone/area.

Energy-saving tips

When cooking, always leave the lid on the
saucepan wherever possible. Liquids can be
brought to the boil more quickly with the lid
on than without.
Only ever use high-quality, new saucepans
and pans. They lie flat on the hob and there-
fore conduct energy more easily than cook-
ware with a warped or dented base (please
note in the chapter "The right cookware").
Turn the heat setting down quickly and con-
tinue to cook at the lowest possible setting.
Always use pressure cooking saucepans
whenever possible. This will halve the cook-
ing process and you will save a lot of energy.
Only use as much water as you really need
to cook the food. A lot of energy is required to
warm up water.
