OPERATION
Cookware Placement
Use the proper cookware and place it correctly on
the cooktop. One or more of the cooking elements
will not heat if any of the incorrect conditions shown
is detected by the sensors located below the
ceramic cooktop surface. Correct the problem before
attempting to use the cooktop.
Correct
•
Cookware is centered
correctly on surface of
cooking element.
•
Pan has flat bottom and
straight sides.
•
Pan size meets or exceeds
the recommended minimum
size for the cooking element.
•
Pan rests completely on the
cooktop surface.
•
Pan is properly balanced.
Incorrect
•
Cookware is not centered on
surface of cooking element.
•
Pan has curved or warped
bottom or sides.
•
Pan does not meet the
minimum size required for
the cooking element used.
•
Pan bottom rests on
cooktop trim or does not rest
completely on the cooktop
surface.
•
Pan is unbalanced by heavy
handle.
Moving Cookware on the Cooktop
Always use heavier gauge, high-quality cookware
on the cooking elements and do not slide it on the
ceramic cooktop surface. Even high-quality cookware
can scratch the cooktop surface.
NOTE
•
Always lift cookware before moving it on the
ceramic glass surface. Any cookware that has
a rough or dirty bottom can mark and scratch
the cooktop surface. Always start with clean
cookware.
•
Do not allow aluminum foil or any material that
can melt to make contact with the ceramic glass
cooktop. If these materials melt on the cooktop
they may damage the ceramic glass surface.
Sliding any type of cookware over the surface will
scratch the cooktop over time. Scratches will make
cleaning the ceramic cooktop difficult and degrade
the appearance of the cooktop.
Pan Sensing
The cooking-element sensors located below the
cooktop surface require certain cookware conditions
to be met before the induction cooking elements can
operate.
The cooking zone LED bar may display a pan sensing
error message. If a cooking element is activated
and no cookware is detected, the affected induction
cooking zone LED bar will fluctuate. If the cookware
does not meet the correct conditions, the cooking
zone may not heat.
If the problem is not corrected, the affected cooking
element will automatically deactivate after one
minute.
