No Pan No Heat
Energy is transferred to cookware when the induction system detects a suitable pan on the heating area. The
green indicator light signals to communicate the Pan Detection process:
•
When the unit is ON without any pan on the glass-top, the green indicator light flashes; the unit is in pan
detection mode.
•
As soon as an induction pan is put on the glass-top, the heating process is engaged and the indicator
light stops flashing and remains bright. However, the indicator light will keep flashing if the unit is not
detecting any pan or an unsuitable pan is placed on the glass-top.
•
When you remove the pan from the heating area, power transfer to the pan is stopped immediately.
NOTE:
Pan with a bottom diameter smaller than 5”(12 cm) is not detected by the system.

When Unit is Not In Use
Best Practice
: If the induction unit is not in use, ensure the control knob is in the 0 (OFF) position.
•
Switch the unit OFF if you take the cookware away for a while. This will prevent the heating process to
start automatically and unintentionally when a pan is placed back on the heating area. If any person
needs to use the induction unit, he/she will have to turn the unit ON intentionally.
