2 / USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Note
To check the suitability of your cook-
ware:
Place the vessel on a cooking zone at
power level 4.
If the display remains on, your cookware
is compatible.
If the display flashes, your cookware can-
not be used with induction cooking.
You can also use a magnet to test the cook-
ware.
If a magnet «sticks» to the bottom of the
cookware, it is compatible with induction.
• INDUCTION COOKWARE
•The induction principle
The principle of induction is based on a
magnetic phenomenon.
When you place your cookware on a cooking
zone and you turn it on, the electronic boards
in your cooking hob produce “induced” cur-
rents in the bottom of the cookware and ins-
tantly raise its temperature. This heat is then
transferred to the food, which is simmered or
seared depending on your settings.
•Cookware
Most cookware is compatible with induction.
Only glass, earth, aluminium without a special
base, copper and some non-magnetic stain-
less steels do not work with the principle of
induction.
We suggest that you choose cookware with a
thick and flat bottom. The heat will be distribu-
ted better and cooking will be more uniform.
