"Gently lift and place pans onto the hob zones reducing the risk of marks or scratches. Use pots and pans with a smooth base when cooking. If cooking on induction the same applies but you will need to use induction-compatible pans. It's suggested that for ceramic hobs, pans with stainless steel bases are the best.Thanks"

"To ensure your ceramic hob remains in good condition and easy to clean, we recommend heavy gauge coated aluminium or hard anodized stainless-steel pans with a thick base. You can also use good quality enamel on steel or cast-iron pans, but these may scratch the hob surface."
