Information about acrylamides
According to the latest scientific research, in-
tensive browning of food, especially in prod-
ucts containing starch, may present a health
risk due to acrylamide. Therefore we recom-
mend cooking at low temperatures and not
browning foods too much.
Cookware
You can recognise good cookware from the bot-
toms of the pans. The bottom should be as thick
and flat as possible.
Cookware made of enamelled steel or with alumin-
ium or copper bottoms can leave discolourations
on the ceramic glass surface which are difficult or
impossible to remove.
Cookware for induction cooking zones
3 Cookware for induction cooking zones is la-
belled as suitable by the manufacturer.
Test of suitability
Cookware is suitable for induction, if …
... a little water is heated on an induction cooking
zone set to heat setting 9 within a few seconds.
... a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware.
3 Certain cookware can make noises when be-
ing used on induction cooking zones. These
noises are not a fault in the appliance and do
not affect operation in any way.
Pan size
Induction cooking zones adapt automatically to the
size of the cookware bottom up to a certain limit.
However the magnetic part of the cookware bottom
must have a minimum diameter depending upon the
size of the cooking zone.
3 The cookware must be placed centrally on the
cooking zone.
