Before Using Cooktop Before Using Cooktop
Induction Cookware
Induction cooking utilizes magnetic
power which reacts with iron in the base
of cookware, instantly transforming the
pot or pan into the heat source. The heat
stops when the cookware is removed.
Your cookware MUST have a magnetic
layer of steel for your induction cooktop
to operate properly. The cookware
should have a flat, heavy magnetic bottom and straight sides with a
diameter of 5” (13 cm) to 12” (31 cm) to accommodate the various
sized elements. The induction cookware should be in good condition
and free from excessive dents on the bottom to provide maximum
performance and convenience.
All Viking cookware is induction friendly, as are most other high-end
brands of stainless steel and enamel cookware. Most induction
cookware will be suitable for your induction cooktop if a magnet
adheres to the bottom surface.
• Cookware that is NOT suitable for your induction cooktop includes
pottery, glass, aluminum, copper, bronze, and any type of cookware
with a footed base.
Hot Surface Indicator Lights
The cooktop has hot surface indicator lights. They are
located to the bottom left of each burner. The hot surface
indicator light will glow red when the corresponding
element is turned on. The light will remain on until the
corresponding element has cooled to a safe temperature.
