ZONE SMART™
PAN SENSING AND SIZING
(CEP MODELS ONLY)
Pan Sensing
Each element has sensors under the glass ceramic
panel which detect if there is a metallic pan (sauce
pan, skillet, stockpot, etc) sitting on the element. The
elements will heat up when it is turned on and the
sensor detects the presence of a pan. This feature
is either on or off for all elements and works together
with the pan sizing feature .
The element will not heat if it is turned on without a
pan present or if the pan is removed from the ele-
ment when it is operating. If no pan is present on the
element, a beep will sound at 60 seconds. After 10
minutes, the cooktop beeps and shuts down if no pan
is placed on the element.
Pan Sizing
On the double and triple elements, a sensor under the
cooktop can choose the size pan being used and turn
on the appropriate element. This feature is either on
or off for all the elements and works together with the
pan sensing feature.
Pan Sensing and Sizing Guidelines
• A cooking pan must be sitting on the element for
the element to heat up.
• Only pans with fl at metal bases can be detected.
• The bottom diameter of the pan must be at least
as large as the diameter of the element
(cookware diameter indicated by manufacturers
is measured across the top and is usually greater
than the bottom.)
• Only metal cookware can be used with the pan
sensing and pan sizing features. Glass or
stoneware will not work.
• Center the cookware over the element.
• A large pan cannot extend beyond 1” over the
sides of the largest element.
