•not correct: aluminium, copper, brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction hob if …
•... some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting
•... a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.
The bottom of the cookware must be as thick and flat as possi- ble.
Put the cookware on the cross which is on the cooking surface. Cover the cross fully. The magnet- ic part of the bottom of the cook- ware must be 150mm minimum. Induction cooking zones adapt to the dimension of the bottom of the cookware automatically. You can cook with the large cookware on two cooking zones at the same time.
