Cleaning off the induction cooktop before and after each use 

will help keep it free from stains and provide the most even 

heating. For more information, see “General Cleaning” section.

 

Avoid storing jars or cans above the cooktop. 

Dropping a heavy or hard object onto the cooktop 

could crack the cooktop.

 

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not leave a hot lid on 

the cooktop. As the cooktop cools, air can become trapped 

between the lid and the cooktop, and the ceramic glass 

could break when the lid is removed.

 

For foods containing sugar in any form, clean up all spills 

and soils as soon as possible. Allow the cooktop to cool 

down slightly. Then, while wearing oven mitts, remove 

the spills while the surface is still warm. If sugary spills 

are allowed to cool down, they can adhere to the cooktop 

and can cause pitting and permanent marks.

 

To avoid scratches, do not slide cookware or bakeware 

across the cooktop.

 

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not allow objects that 

could melt, such as plastic or aluminum foil, to touch any 

part of the entire cooktop.

 

To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not use the cooktop 

as a cutting board.

 

Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking 

area. Cookware should not extend more than 

1

/

2

" (1.3 cm) 

outside the area.

 

Use flat-bottomed cookware for best heat conduction and 

energy efficiency. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed 

or dented bottoms could cause uneven heating and poor 

cooking results.

 

Determine flatness by placing the straight edge of a ruler 

across the bottom of the cookware. While you rotate the 

ruler, no space or light should be visible between it and 

the cookware.

 

Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and 

dry before using them. Residue and water can leave 

deposits when heated.

Cookware

Only ferromagnetic pans can be used for induction cooking. 

Ferromagnetic Materials Include:

 

Enameled steel

 

Cast iron

 

Stainless steel designed for induction cooking

Non-Ferromagnetic Materials Include:

These types of pans will not work with induction cooking.

 

Stainless steel

 

Glass

 

Ceramic

 

Copper or aluminum pans

To find out whether your pans can be used with an induction 

cooktop, flip the pan over, hold a magnet to the bottom of 

the pan, and see whether it sticks. If the magnet sticks to the 

bottom of the pan, the pan is ferromagnetic and can be used 

for induction cooking.
The number on the surface cooking area heat setting display 

will flash if no pan is placed on the surface cooking area, or the 

pan is not made of the right material, or it is not the right size. 

It will stop flashing once a suitable pan is placed on the surface 

cooking area. If you take longer than 90 seconds to place the 

correct pan on the surface cooking area, the surface cooking 

area will turn off.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and 

a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-

heavy thickness.
Choose the correct pan size for each surface cooking area. 

The diameter of the pan’s base should correspond to the size 

of the surface cooking area.

NOTE: 

Cookware manufacturers often give the diameter 

across the top of the pan. This is usually larger than the 

diameter of the base.
Pans with rough finishes may scratch the cooktop.
