use only a flat-bottomed
wok. They are available
at your local retail store.
Do not use woks that have
support rings. Use of these
types of woks, with or
without the ring in place, can
be dangerous. Placing the ring
over the surface unit
will
cause a build-up of heat that
will damage the porcelain
cooktop. Do not try to use
such woks without the ring.
You could be seriously burned
if the wok tipped over.
Do not use woks that
have support rings.

of Cookware
The following information will help you choose
cookware which will give good performance.
Stainless Steel: highly recommended
Especially good with a sandwich clad bottom. The
sandwich bottom combines the benefits of stainless
steel (appearance, durability and stability) with the
advantages of aluminum or copper (heat conduction,
even heat distribution).
Copper Bottom: heavy weight recommended
Good performance, but copper may leave residues
which can appear as scratches. The residues can be
removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned
immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry.
Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops.
An overheated copper pot will leave a residue that
will permanently stain the cooktop.
Aluminum: heavy weight recommended
