Before Using the Cooktop
USE THE CORRECT COOKWARE TYPE -The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors
located below the cooktop surface require the use of cookware made with magnetic
material in order to start the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones.
When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer
for use with Induction cooktops. If you are not sure, use a magnet to test whether
the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the
material type is correct for Induction cooking (See Fig. 1). Fig. 1
It is recommended to always use heavier high quality stainless steel cookware on
your Induction Cooktop surface. This will greatly reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface.
Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface, especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop surface
without being lifted up. Over time sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter the overall appear-
ance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall
appearance of the cooktop.

USE THE CORRECT SiZE COOKWARE - The Cooking Zones available on the induction Cooktop require a MiNiMUM
pan size to be used at each location (Fig. 2). The inner ring of each Cooking Zone is your guide to the correct MiNiMUM
pan size. The pan bottom must FULLY cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur.
The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the cookware
on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the thicker line on the Cooking Zone
(See example in Fig. 2).
NOTE: If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO SMALL,
the affected Cooking Zone display will flash the power level and the pan will not heat.
