The bottom of the cookware must be as
thick and flat as possible.
Ensure pan bases are clean and dry
before placing on the hob surface.
Cookware dimensions
Induction cooking zones adapt to the
dimension of the bottom of the cookware
automatically.
The cooking zone efficiency is related to the
diameter of the cookware. The cookware with
a diameter smaller than the minimum
receives only a part of the power generated
by the cooking zone.

7.4 Öko Timer Eco timer
To save energy, the heater of the cooking
zone deactivates before the count down timer
sounds. The difference in the operation time
depends on the heat setting level and the
length of the cooking operation.

7.5 Simplified cooking guide
1400/2500
The correlation between the heat setting of a
zone and its consumption of power is not
1800/2800
linear. When you increase the heat setting, it
1800/2800
is not proportional to the increase of the
consumption of power. It means that a
2300/3600
cooking zone with the medium heat setting
uses less than a half of its power.
