SELECTING COOKTOP SETTINGS

Choose the element/burner that is best fit to the cookware

size. Each element/burner on your new cooktop has its

own power levels ranging from low to high. Power level

settings necessary for cooking will vary depending on the

cookware being used, the type and quantity of food, and

the desired outcome. In general use lower settings for

melting, holding and simmering and use higher settings for

heating quickly, searing and frying. When keeping foods

warm confirm selected setting is sufficient to maintain food

temperature above 140°F. Larger elements and elements

marked “Keep Warm” are not recommended for melting.

Hi is the highest power level, designed for large quantity

rapid cooking and boiling. Hi will operate for a maximum of

10 minutes. Hi may be repeated after the initial 10 minute

cycle by pressing the + pad.

USING YOUR COOKTOP

49-80826 Rev. 4 13

HOW INDUCTION COOKING WORKS

The magnetic fields induce a small current in the pan. The

pan acts as a resistor, which produces heat, much like a

radiant coil.

The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is produced

in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated until a pan is

placed on the cooking surface.

When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat

immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.

Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware

made of ferrous metals—metals to which magnets will

stick, such as iron or steel.

Use pans that fit the element size. The pan must be large

enough for the safety sensor to activate an element.

The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron

utensil (less than the minimum size across the bottom) is

placed on the cooking surface when the unit is turned on—

items such as steel spatulas, cooking spoons, knives and

other small utensils.

COOKWARE “NOISE”

Slight sounds may be produced by different types of

cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron

produce less sound than a lighter weight multi-ply stainless

steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount of contents,

can also contribute to the sound level.

When using adjacent elements that are set at certain

power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and

produce a high pitch whistle or intermittent “hum”. These

sounds can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising

the power level settings of one or both of the elements.

Pans that completely cover the element ring will produce

less sound.

A low “humming” sound is normal particularly on high

settings.

Slight sounds, such as hums or buzzes, may be produced

by different types of cookware. This is normal. Heavier and

uniform material pans such as enameled cast iron produce

less sound than lighter weight multi-layered stainless steel

pans or pans that have bonded disks on the bottom of

the pan. The size of the pan, the amount of contents in

the pan, and the flatness of the pan can also contribute to

the sound level. Some pots will “Buzz” louder depending

on the material. A “Buzz” sound may be heard if the

pan contents are cold. As the pan heats, the sound will

decrease. If the power level is reduced, the sound level will

go down.

Pans that do not meet the minimum size requirements for

the burner can produce louder sounds. They can cause

the controller to "search" for the pot and produce a clicking

and "zipping" sound. This can happen when one burner is

running or only when an adjacent burner is also running.

See User Manual for the minimum sized pots for each

burner. Only measure the flat, magnetic bottom of the pot.

USING YOUR COOKTOP

Use the minimum size pan for the element. The

pan material is correct if a magnet sticks to the

bottom.

Min

. Size

Min. Size

14 49-80826 Rev. 4

Use a flat-bottomed wok.

Use a griddle.

Use flat-bottomed pans.

CHOOSING THE CORRECT COOKWARE TO USE

Using the correct size cookware

The induction coils require a minimum pan size to function

properly. If the pan is removed from the element for more

than 25 seconds or not detected the ON indicator for that

element will flash and then turn off.

Cookware larger than the element ring may be used;

however, heat will only occur above the element.

For best results, the cookware must make FULL contact

with the glass surface.

Do not allow the bottom of the pan or cookware to touch

the surrounding metal cooktop trim or to overlap the

cooktop controls.

For best performance, match the pan size to the element

size. Using a smaller pot on a larger burner will generate

less power at any given setting.

Suitable Cookware

Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat

distribution and even cooking results. Choose cookware

made of magnetic stainless steel, enamel coated cast iron,

enameled steel and combinations of these materials.

Some cookware is specifically identified by the

manufacturer for use with induction cooktops. Use a

magnet to test if the cookware will work.

Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or

slight ridges can be used.

Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or curved

bottoms will not heat evenly.

For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed wok. Do not use a

wok with a support ring.

Curved or warped pan bottoms

or sides.

Pan does not meet the minimum

size required for the cooking

element used.

Cookware centered correctly

on cooking element surface.

CAUTION

Burn Hazard

Ŷ Griddle surfaces may be hot enough to cause burns during and after use. Place and remove the griddle when

it is cool and all surface units are off. Use oven mitts if you will touch the griddle while hot. Failure to do so

can result in burns.

Ŷ Place and remove the griddle only when griddle is cool and all surface burners are turned OFF.

Before using this cookware for the first time, wash it to make sure it is clean. Then season it lightly, rubbing cooking oil

onto the cooking surface.

How To Place The Griddle

IMPORTANT: Always place and use your griddle at the

designated location on the cooktop.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

Ŷ Clean the griddle with a sponge and mild detergent in

warm water. DO NOT use blue or green scrubbing pads

or steel wool.

Ŷ Avoid cooking extremely greasy foods and be careful of

grease spillover while cooking.

Ŷ Never place or store any items on the griddle, even

when it is not in use. The griddle can become heated

when using the surrounding surface units.

Ŷ Avoid using metal utensils with sharp points or rough

edges, which might damage the griddle. Do not cut foods

on the griddle.

Ŷ Do not use cookware as a storage container for food or

oil. Permanent staining and/or craze lines could result.

Ŷ Your griddle will discolor over time with use.

Ŷ Do not clean the griddle in a self-cleaning oven.

Ŷ Always allow the cookware to cool before immersing in

water.

Ŷ Do not overheat the griddle.

Griddle Operation

To turn on the surface units for the entire griddle, use the

CARE AND CLEANING

To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop,

follow these steps:

1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with

a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top

and makes cleanup easier.

2. Regular use of a ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep

the cooktop looking new.

3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of a

ceramic cooktop cleaner directly to the cooktop.

4. Use a paper towel or a non-scratch cleaning pad for

ceramic cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.

5. Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning

residue. No need to rinse.

NOTE: It is very important that you DO NOT heat the

cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.

BURNED-ON RESIDUE

NOTE: DAMAGE to your glass surface may occur if you

use scrub pads other than those recommended.

1. Allow the cooktop to cool.

2. Spread a few drops of a ceramic cooktop cleaner on

the entire burned residue area.

3. Using a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops,

rub the residue area, applying pressure as needed.

4. If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above as

needed.

5. For additional protection, after all residue has been

removed, polish the entire surface with a ceramic

cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.

HEAVY, BURNED-ON RESIDUE

1. Allow the cooktop to cool.

2. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper at approximately a

45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the soil. It

will be necessary to apply pressure to the razor scraper in

order to remove the residue.

3. After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops

of a ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue

area. Use a non-scratch cleaning pad to remove any

remaining residue.

4. For additional protection, after all residue has been

removed, polish the entire surface with a ceramic

cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.

Clean your cooktop after each

spill. Use a ceramic cooktop

cleaner.

GLASS SURFACE — POTENTIAL FOR PERMANENT DAMAGE

Damage from sugary spills and melted plastic:

1. Turn off all surface elements. Remove hot pans.

2. Wearing an oven mitt:

a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper (ceramic

cooktop scraper) to move the spill to a cool area on

the cooktop.

b. Remove the spill with paper towels.

3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface

of the cooktop has cooled.

4. Don’t use the surface elements again until all of the

residue has been completely removed.

NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has

already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be

replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.

NOTE: Our testing shows that if you are cooking high

sugar mixtures such as jelly or fudge and have a spillover,

it can cause permanent damage to the glass surface

unless the spillover is immediately removed.

CARE AND CLEANING

METAL MARKS AND SCRATCHES

1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your

cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop

surface.

These marks are removable using a ceramic cooktop

cleaner with a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic

cooktops.

2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper

are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black

discoloration on the cooktop.

This should be removed immediately before heating

again or the discoloration may be permanent.

NOTE: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness

that would scratch the cooktop.
