COOKING UTENSIL SELECTION

1. Only use cooking utensils, which are approved for induction cooking.
2. Useable pans are: stainless steel saucepans with ferro magnetic bottom. cast
iron pans and saucepans, enamelled iron saucepans and pans.
3. You can check with a magnet, if your sauce-pans are useable for induction
cooking. Whenever the magnet is adhering at the bottom outside, the sauce-
pan can be used on the induction cooker.
4. Not usable are saucepans and pans made of aluminium, copper, glass,
ceramic and some chrome nickel alloys.
5. The diameter of the saucepans should be min. 11 cm and max. 18 cm.
6. Attention:
Adapt the power or temperature setting to the used saucepans. When using
small saucepans you can already cook with 180 °C or 1.400 watts. A too
high setting in combination with small saucepans can cause damages of the
appliance.
7. The non-stick-coating of coated saucepans and frying pans can be damaged
if used with too strong heating. Please follow the information of the sauce-
pan manufacturer with regard to the application of the pots.
8. Choose in the case of doubt a lower power setting or temperature to avoid
damages. Put the saucepan always precisely in the middle of the cooking
field to avoid error messages and automatic switching off.

FUNCTIONING

Cooking on an induction cooker saves up to 50 % of electric power. The cooking
time is reduced by up to 30 %.
When cooking on an induction cooker, not the hotplate is heated, but the sauce-
pan on it, provided that the bottom is ferromagnetic. The heating is effected by
a magnetic alternating field below the hotplate.
The advantages of induction cooking are:
ƒ Short reaction time, short preheating time, quick and exact heating.
ƒ Rapid heating, since the full amount of enery is immediately available.
ƒ Cool hotplate, which is only heated by the heat reflected from the sauce-
pan.
ƒ Great energy saving of up to 50%.
ƒ Easy cleaning, as food cannot burn in case of boiling over.
ƒ High safety: as soon as the saucepan is taken away from the plate, the heat
supply is stopped automatically.
