Some induction cookware does not have a fully
ferromagnetic base:
▯
If the base of the cookware is only partially
ferromagnetic, only the area that is ferromagnetic
will heat up. This may mean that heat will not be
distributed evenly. The non-ferromagnetic area may
not heat up to a sufficient temperature for cooking.
▯
The ferromagnetic area will also be reduced if the
material of which the base of the cookware is made
contains aluminum, for example. This may mean that
the cookware will not become sufficiently hot or
even that it will not be detected.
Unsuitable cookware
Do not ever use adapter plates for induction or
cookware made of:
▯
Traditional stainless steel
▯
Glass
▯
Clay
▯
Copper
▯
Aluminum
Properties of the base of the cookware
The material(s) of which the base of the cookware is
made can affect the cooking result. Using pots and pans
made from materials that distribute heat evenly through
them, such as stainless-steel pans with a three-layer
base, saves time and energy.
Use cookware with a flat base; if the base of the
cookware is uneven, this may impair the heat supply.

No pan or improper size
If no pan is placed on the selected element, or if it is
made of unsuitable material or is not the correct size,
the power level displayed on the element indicator will
flash. Place a suitable pan on the element to stop the
flashing. If you take longer than 90 seconds to place a
suitable pan on the element, it will automatically turn off.
Empty pans or pans with a thin base
Do not heat up empty pans, or use pans with a thin
base. The cooktop is equipped with an internal safety
system. However, an empty pan may heat up so quickly
that the "automatic switch off" function may not have
time to react and the pan may reach very high
temperatures. The pan base could melt and damage the
cooktop glass. In this case, do not touch the pan and
switch the cooktop off. If the cooktop fails to work after
it has cooled down, please contact the technical
service.
Pan detection
Each element has a lower limit for pan detection. This
depends on the diameter of the ferromagnetic area of
the cookware and the material of which its base is
made. For this reason, you should always use the
element that best matches the diameter of the base of
the pan.
Automatic detection in double and triple cooking zones
These cooking zones can detect cookware of different
sizes. Depending on the material and the properties of
the cookware, the cooking zone automatically activates
the singe, double or triple cooking zone, supplying the
proper power to obtain good cooking results.
