Questions and Answers
Q. Can I cover my drip pans with foil?
A. No. Clean as recommended in the Care and
Cleaning section.
Q. Can I use special cooking equipment, like an
oriental wok, on any surface units?
A. Cookware without flat surfaces is not
recommended. The life of the module surface
units can be shortened and the cooktop can be
damaged from the high heat needed for this type
of cooking. A special flat-bottomed wok can be
used safely.
Q. Why am I not getting the heat I need from my
surface units even though I have the controls
on the correct setting?
A. After turning the surface units off and making sure
they are cool, check to make sure that the plug-in
units are securely plugged in.
Q. Why does my cookware tilt when I place it on
the surface unit?
A. Because the surface unit is not flat. Make sure the
feet of the surface units are sitting on the inside
rim of the drip pan and the drip pan is flat on the
cooktop surface.
Q. Why is the porcelain finish on my cookware
coming off?
A. If you set the surface unit coil higher than required
for the cookware material and leave it, the finish
may smoke, crack, pop, or burn depending on the
pot or pan.
Also, if you set the surface unit coil higher than
required for a long period of time, with small
amounts of dry food, you can damage the finish.
Q. May I can foods and preserves on my coil
surface units?
A. Yes, but only use cookware designed for canning
purposes. Check the manufacturer’s instructions
and recipes for preserving foods. Be sure canner
is flat-bottomed and fits over the center of the
coil surface unit. Since canning generates large
amounts of steam, be careful to avoid burns from
steam or heat.
Wok Cooking
We recommend that
you use only a flat-
bottomed wok. They are
available at your local
retail store.
Do not use woks that
have support rings.
Use of these types of
woks, with or without
the ring in place can
be dangerous. Placing
the ring over the
surface unit will cause a build-up of heat that will
damage the cooktop. Do not try to use such woks
without the ring. You could be seriously burned if
the wok tipped over.
