The Recommended Surface Cooking
Setting
Start most surface cooking on a higher setting and
then adjust to a lower setting to finish cooking.
The suggested settings may need adjustments,
depending on cookware design and quality and on
the amount of food being prepared.
Use quality cookware that is constructed with a
magnetic base material and that meets the minimum
and maximum pan size requirements.

Pan Preheat Recommendations
Induction cooking may decrease the amount of time
required to preheat cookware compared to cooking
on a radiant element cooktop or gas surface burner.
Do not use the highest settings to preheat cookware
without food. The cookware will transfer too much heat
to the cooktop, which will shut down automatically
to avoid damage. Because it heats slowly, cast iron
cookware can be preheated without food at higher
settings, but for no longer than 2 minutes. After that,
lower the burner setting before adding food.
Pay close attention to all food items while cooking
on the cooktop or in the oven, and until all cooking
processes are complete.
CAUTION
Remember that induction surface cooking initially
heats the cookware VERY QUICKLY if the
cookware does not contain food.
If the induction cooktop becomes overheated, it
automatically reduces the power level or turns
off to prevent product damage. If the induction
cooktop turns off, turn the burner controls to OFF
then select a lower power level.
Set the power level to 7 when preheating large
cookware like a griddle or grill plate.
