Induction Cooking 15
Pan Sensing (cont'd)
Only use qua lity cookware in good condition
It is recommended to always use high quality
cookware with heavier bottoms. This will provide
better heat distribution and give better cooking
results. Cookware must have flat bottoms that make
good contact with the entire induction cooking zone
surface. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across
the bottom of the cookware.
When using your Induction cooktop:
• The pan size must closely fit the pattern on the
cooktop and should match the amount of food
being prepared.
• Use clean cookware only. Do not use dirty pans
with grease buildup on the cooktop.
Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause
permanent damage in the form of breakage,
fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic
cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by
yourwarranty).
Minimum and maximum cookware sizes
All four cooking zones on induction cooktop require
a minimum pan size to be used at each location.
If a pan is too small, the red heating ring will not
appear in the cooking zone display, indicating a
possible problem with the pan size (Fig.l). A pan
that is too small will not heat. When the cooking
zone is ready to heat, the red heating indicator will
display for the cooking zone (Fig. 2).

The smaller inner ring marked on the cooktop for
each cooking zone isyour guide for the correct
minimum pan size to use (See Fig. 3). The pan
bottom must fully cover the inside ring for heating
to occur.

The thicker outer ring marked at each cooking zone
(Fig. 3) is helpful to determine the maximum pan
size recommended for use on each cooking zone.
After centering the cookware on a cooking zone, be
sure cookware does not extend more than 1/2"
(13mm) beyond the outer line. The pan must make
FULL contact on the glass surface without the
bottom of the pan touching the metal cooktop
edges.

Correct any problems before attempting to
activate the cooking zone. Once the problems
have been corrected the red heating ring will
show in the cooking zone display (Fig. 2).
