Determine Cookware Size
IMPORTANT: Using cookware that is a lot smaller than
the cooking zone wastes energy and may cause the “no
pan detected” light to come on and shut off power to the
cooking zone.
• Do not use cookware that is more than 1/2 inch larger
in diameter than the cooking zone being used.
• For optimal performance, use pots or pans that are
between 1/2 inch smaller and 1/2 inch larger than the
cooking zone being used.
Cookware Placement
IMPORTANT: Center the cookware in the cooking zone.
Cookware that is off center may cause the “no pan
detected” light to come on and shut off power to the
cooking zone.
Before Using the Cooktop...
• Be sure all packing materials, labels or tape are
removed from the cooktop surface.
• Wipe the cooktop with a clean, damp sponge and dry.
• Apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme, according to the
Care and Cleaning
section.
• During the first uses of the cooktop, you may smell
a slight burning odor or see light smoke. These
conditions are normal for a new glass ceramic cooktop.
• Be certain that the cookware and glass surfaces are
clean and dry before you place a pot or pan on the
cooktop and turn on an element.
Selecting the Proper Cookware
WARNING
This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of
different size. Always use utensils that have flat bottoms. Use
utensils that best match the surface unit size (smaller utensils
on smaller surface units) and are a minimum of 4 inches in
diameter.
• Utensils affect overall safety and cooking performance.
It is important to select them carefully. Improperly
selected utensils will not cook efficiently or evenly.
• All utensils used on an induction cooktop MUST be
magnetic (must attract and hold a magnet). Cookware
labeled by the manufacturer for use with an induction
cooktop is best. Utensils with poor magnetic conduction
will not heat properly, may cause vibration or cause the
no pan detected light to come on.
• Use medium to heavy-gauge metal cookware with
flat and smooth bottoms. Also choose cookware that
matches the amount of food being prepared and
closely matches the diameter of one of the cooking
zones. Use tight fitting lids to retain heat, odors and
steam.
Do not use:
• Cooking utensils that have bottoms that are rounded,
convex, concave or are warped.
• Utensils made of materials that are poor heat
conductors.
• Griddle plates that cover more than one cooking zone.
• Dirty pans or pans with greasy build-up.
