Each cooking element requires a MINIMUM pan size.
If the pan is properly centered, and of the correct
material, but is too small for the cooking element,
the element cannot be activated. The display will
flash “F” along with the power level selected.
Cookware larger than the element ring may be
used; however, heat will only occur above the
element.
For best results, the cookware must make FULL
contact with the glass surface.
Do not allow the bottom of the pan or cookware
to touch the surrounding metal cooktop trim or
to overlap the cooktop controls.
For best performance, match the pan size to the
element size. Using a smaller pot on a larger burner
will generate less power at any given setting.
Using Your Cooktop
Induction Cooktop
How
induction
cooking
works
The elements beneath the cooking surface
produce a magnetic field that causes the
electrons in the ferrous metal pan to vibrate
and produce heat.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat
is produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be
generated until a pan is placed on the cooking
surface.
When the element is activated, the pan begins to
heat immediately and in turn heats the contents
of the pan.
Magnetic induction cooking requires the use
of cookware made of ferrous metals—metals
to which magnets will stick, such as iron or steel.
Use pans that fit the element size. The pan must
be large enough for the safety sensor to activate
an element.
The cooktop will not start if a very small steel or
iron utensil (less than the minimum size across
the bottom) is placed on the cooking surface
when the unit is turned on—items such as steel
spatulas, cooking spoons, knives and other
small utensils.
