IV. Suitable cookware
Use only cookware that is suitable for induction cookers:
1. Suitable are pots and pans with a base made of steel or cast iron. These are
recognizable either through the markings on the pan or if a magnet clings to the base of the
pan.
2. Unsuitable are all types of cookware made of metals to which a magnet does not cling,
for example aluminum, copper and stainless steel, as well as non-metallic cookware made
of porcelain, glass, ceramics and plastics etc.
3.
Thin pan bottoms are better suited for induction cookers than thick sandwich bottoms.
The very short reaction times to setting adjustments (short pre-warm time; fast metered
roasting) are not possible with thick pan bases.
Only use cookware that is suitable for the size of the cooking area.
The diameter...
–
may not exceed 26 cm, so that the pan does not overhang,
–
and may not be less than 16 cm, so that the energy field can actually work.
–
The base of the pan may not be uneven, rather, it must sit fl at.
Only then can the induction cooker function perfectly.
V.
How to use
Setup
1. So as not to overheat, the appliance requires unrestricted ventilation. Therefore,
position the appliance such that ...
–
there is an all-round free space of minimum 10 cm, e.g. to the nearest wall,
–
a free space directly above of minimum 60 cm, e.g. to a suspended wall cabinet.
For cooling, the appliance draws in air through the openings on the underside.
2.
Therefore, place it only on smooth surfaces, not on textiles or fluff y surfaces, such as
tablecloths.
3.
Do not place it adjacent to curtains, drapes or other textiles which, due to the airflow,
could press them against the appliance.
Utilization
When you have unpacked and positioned the appliance as described above, it is now
ready for use.
Place the cookware in the middle of the cooking area. This may ...
–
not project beyond the edge of the cooking area...
–
not weigh more than 10 kg (together with the content).
Switching on
When cookware with content is standing on the hob:
–
Insert the plug into a mains power socket. A signal tone sounds. The appliance is now
ready for use.
–
Press the button On/Off. The control lamp HEAT is on.
