heat distribution and even cooking results. Choose
cookware made of magnetic stainless steel, enamel
coated cast iron, enameled steel or combinations of
these materials.
Some cookware is specifically identified by the
PDQXIDFWXUHUIRUXVHZLWKLQGXFWLRQFRRNWRSV8VHD
magnet to test if the cookware will work.
Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or
slight ridges can be used.
Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or
curved bottoms will not heat evenly.

wok with a support ring.
NOTE: The warming zone is NOT an induction element
and will work with flat bottomed cookware that is NOT
ferrous.
Using the correct size cookware
Pans that are not ferrous or are too small will not allow
the induction elements to turn on, and the ON indicator
for that element location will flash for 25 seconds and
then turn off. If a pan is removed from or not centered on
the induction coil for more than 30 seconds, the power for
that element will be shut off.
Cookware larger than the element ring may be used;
however, heat will only occur above the element.

less power at any given setting.
Cookware “Noise”
Slight sounds may be produced by different types
of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast
iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply
stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount
of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at certain
power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and
produce a low whistle or intermittent “hum”. These
noises can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or
raising the power level settings of one or both of the
elements. Pans that completely cover the element ring
will produce less noise.
A low “humming” noise is normal particularly on high
settings.
Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight “Buzz”
when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound
depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will
“Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound
may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan
heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is
reduced, the sound level will go down.
Power Control
If a surface unit is on power level H (high), for an
extended period of time or if multiple surface units are
on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the
surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the
controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.
