Getting Started
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 fl at, 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 Range, LLC 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.
