en Suitable cookware6Lift lids as infrequently as possible.¡ When you lift the lid, a lot of energy escapes.Use a glass lid.¡ You can see into the pan through a glass lidwithout having to lift it.Use pots and pans with flat bases.¡ Uneven bases increase energy consumption.Use cookware that is suitable for the quantity of food.¡ Large items of cookware containing little food needmore energy to heat up.Cook with only a little water.¡ The more water that is contained in the cookware,the more energy is required to heat it up.Turn down to a lower power level early on. Use a suit-able ongoing power level.¡ If you use an ongoing power level that is too high,you will waste energy.Adjust the fan speed to the amount of steam pro-duced during cooking.¡ The lower the fan speed, the less energy is con-sumed.If cooking produces large amounts of steam, select ahigher fan speed in good time.¡ The odours are distributed around the room less.Switch the appliance off when you are not using it.¡Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation when cook-ing.¡ The appliance works more efficiently and with feweroperating noises.Clean or replace the filters at regular intervals.¡ The effectiveness of the filter is retained.Product Information according (EU) 66/2014 can befound on the attached appliance pass and online onthe product page for your appliance.4 Suitable cookwareCookware that is suitable for induction cooking musthave a ferromagnetic base, i.e. it must be attracted bya magnet. The base must also match the size of thecooking zone. If cookware is not detected on a cookingzone, place this on the cooking zone with the nextsmallest diameter.4.1 Size and characteristics of the cookwareTo correctly detect the cookware, take the size and thematerial of the cookware into consideration. All cook-ware bases must be perfectly flat and smooth.You can use Cookware test to check whether yourcookware is suitable. You can find more informationabout this under→ "Cookware test", Page 19.Cookware Materials PropertiesRecommended cook-wareStainless steel cookware in a sandwichdesign that distributes the heat well.This cookware distributes the heat evenly,heats up quickly, and ensures that it can bedetected easily.Ferromagnetic cookware made of enamelledsteel, cast iron or special induction cookwaremade of stainless steel.This cookware heats up quickly and ensuresthat it can be detected easily.Suitable The base is not fully ferromagnetic. If the ferromagnetic area is smaller than thebase of the cookware, only the area that isferromagnetic heats up. As a result, the heatis not distributed evenly.Cookware bases with aluminium content. These reduce the ferromagnetic area, whichmeans that less power is emitted to thecookware. This cookware may not be suffi-ciently detected or may not be detected atall, and therefore does not heat sufficiently.Not suitable Cookware made from normal thin steel,glass, clay, copper or aluminium.Notes¡ Do not use adapter plates between the hob and thecookware.¡ Do not heat up empty cookware and do not usecookware with a thin base, as this may become veryhot.
