Pan Sensing
The cooking zone sensors located below the cooktop
surface require that certain cookware conditions are met
before the induction cooking zones can operate.
The cooking zone display windows may display a pan
sensing error message. If a cooking zone is activated and
no cookware is detected, the affected induction cooking
zone display window will flash with the last power level
request setting (Figure 5). If the cookware does not meet
the correct conditions, the cooking zones may not heat.

A flashing error message as illustrated in Figure 5 can be
generated by those conditions. Use Figure 6 as a guide to
help to correct the problem or problems before attempting
to reactivate any of the cooking zones.
If the problem or problems are not corrected, the affected
cooking zone will automatically deactivate after 3 minutes.
