Utensils for Your InductionInduced current can be created only inmaterials which have magnetic properties.Thus, utensils for use with an induction unitmust be made from a ferromagnetic materialor have inserts with magnetic properties.Your household may already have cookwaresuitable for induction cooking, and you maytest any utensil with an induction element.Incorporated controls are able to recognizea suitable utensil. To perform a utensil test:induction cooking, but most manufacturersmake such utensils in layers for better heatdistribution, and a good number of suchpots and pans can be used with induction.To make sure if a stainless steel utensil canbe used perform the utensil test.Use of utensils with enameled coated basewill prevent the glass top of your unit fromgetting scratched.- Turn an element on and adjust power to anylevel - you will notice that the digital powerdisplay is flashing.- Place your utensil on the coil. If the piecebeing tested is suitable for inductioncooking, the display will become steady.However, if it keeps flashing, the utensilcannot be used on your induction unit.- If the utensil is empty, remove it from thecoil immediately after you have done test andturn the element OFF.Another simple test to determine if a piece ofcookware can be used on an inductioncooktop is the ‘magnet test’. Use a magnetand place it on the utensil. If the magnetsticks to it, the piece will work withinduction.Utensils compatible with induction are:• Cookware made of enamel coated steelwith or without a non-stick coating.• Cast iron cookware with or without enamelcoated base.• Stainless steel pots and pans designed forinduction cookware.Note:Stainless steel used for utensils is nonmagnetic,in most cases, and unsuitable forPots and pans which do not have a flatbottom still may be used, however theyshould not be overly deformed.Cookware made from glass, ceramic,earthenware, aluminum and copper pots andpans and non-magnetic stainless steelcookware are not suitable for inductioncooking.Matching Pots & Pans with Coils, etc.Small elements,16 cm (6 1/2”), are bestutilized:- With small utensils - but normally notsmaller then 10 cm (4”);- For slow cooking and simmering (sauces,creams, etc.);- For cooking small quantities of food.Large elements, 22 cm (9”), are primarilydesigned for day-to-day cooking needs andmost commonly used pans - 18 to 25 cm (7to 9 1/2”) in diameter.When cooking large quantities of food, it isalways better to use a large diameter panand a larger coil, thus better and moreefficient heat distribution will be achievedand food cooked evenly.Utensils with thick flat bases should be chosen for the benefit of uniform heatdistribution.Never leave an empty piece of cookware on an induction heating element for more then a fewseconds. If a utensil is left on an element at full power, temperature of the dish mayincrease rapidly, the safeties would not engage, and this may damage your utensil,the cooktop, and could result in an injury or a damage to your property.13
To Do or Not To DoYou must:- Always place your utensil such that itscenter is aligned with the centre of the coil.- Avoid hitting the vitroceramic glass withutensils or any hard objects - the glasssurface is highly resistant but notunbreakable.- Pick-up your utensils when moving themaround. Do not slide them and avoidexcessive rubbing of the top, as this leavesscratches and erases the markings .- Avoid using utensils with rough ordeformed bottoms.- Avoid leaving any metal cookingaccessories, knives and forks, or metalobjects on the hob. They may get hot if leftclose to any heating element in use.- Avoid storing flammable products in thecabinets under your cooktop.- Never leave an empty utensil on aninduction heating element, even when theelement is turned OFF.- Only use maximum power for boiling andfrying.- Never try heating up a closed can.- Avoid pre-heating your non-stick pans (e.g.with teflon coating) at maximum heat.- Avoid storing solid and heavy items in thecabinets above your cooktop. They mayunintentionally drop and damage the glass.To Do or Not To DoDo not connect any appliances to the plugs above or near to the induction cooktop;connection cable insulation can melt if in contact with heat, and this may result in aninjury and a property damage.Your cooktop must never be used as a storage space or surface for piling up of anymaterial.14
