These settings should only be taken as a guide. The power of the induction coils will vary
depending on the size and material of the pan. For this reason, it is possible that the
settings will need to be adjusted slightly to suit your pans. As you use the cooktop, you will
get to know which settings suit your pans best. When using new pans that you are not
familiar with, set the power level below the one specified.
