Look for the label: Suitable for induction!
Suitability Test
If you are not sure if a pot or pan is suitable for cook-
ing or frying on the induction cooking zone you can
check this as follows:
Place a pot filled with a little water (3-5 mm filling
height) on the cooking zone.
Switch the cooking zone to full power (switch set-
ting 9).
Caution: The pan base of suitable kitchenware
heats up within a few seconds!
You can also check this with a magnet. If it remains
fixed to the base the pan is suitable for induction
cooking zones.
Pan Size
Up to a certain limit the induction cooking zone
adapts itself to the size of the pan base diameter.
However, the pan base diameter must be of a mini-
mum size, depending on the size of the cooking
zone.
Diameter of the cooking zone 14,5 cm:
Diameter of the pan base at least 12 cm
Diameter of the cooking zone 18 cm:
Diameter of the pan base at least 14,5 cm
Diameter of the cooking zone 21 cm:
Diameter of the pan base at least 18 cm
Note:
Please note the diameter of the pan base when
buying new pans, since the manufacturers usually
specify the top edge diameter of their pans.
