COOKTOP USE
Induction Cooking
Induction cooking is quite different from traditional forms of
cooking. The heat is generated directly in the pan, keeping the
cooking surface cooler than a traditional element.
Induction cooking does not lose as much heat as traditional forms
because all the heat is created in the pan itself.
The cooktop heats up or cools down quickly after the controls are
set. It also stops heating when the pan is removed without turning
off the power.
Food spilled on the cooktop surface will not burn because the
glass is not heated. Induction cooking allows for immediate
cleaning after use because the heat is created in the pan.
Pan size, material (see “Cookware” section), and positioning are
very important to achieve maximum wattage.
The diameter of the pan’s base should be equal to the size of
the element.
If the pan is too small, the burner does not sense the pan and
will not activate.
Cooktop Controls
The touch-activated electronic controls offer a variety of heat
settings for optimal cooking results. When melting foods such as
chocolate or butter, the surface cooking area can be set to the
Melt function for minimal surface cooking area operation.
For maximum surface cooking area operation, all cooktop touch-
activated electronic controls can be set to Performance Boost
function when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil. Select
the desired surface cooking area, and then press BOOST to
immediately reach the highest setting.
NOTE: Where 240 V installation is not available, this cooktop will
automatically adjust to 208 V operation.
