BEFORE USING THE COOKTOP

NOTE

Pan bottoms should not extend more than ½” (13mm) 

beyond outer Cooking Zone (Induction).

NOTE

If a pan made of the correct material is centered 

properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO 

SMALL, the affected Cooking Zone display will flash the 

power level and the pan will not heat.

The Cooking Zones available on the Induction Cooktop 

require a 

MINIMUM

 pan size to be used at each location 

(Figs. 2 & 3).
The outer tips of each cooking zone cross-hair is helpful 

to determine the pan 

MAXIMUM

 size. After centering the 

cookware on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does 

not extend more than 1/2” beyond the thicker line on the 

Cooking Zone. The pan must make FULL contact on the 

glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the 

metal cooktop trims.

Minimum Pan Size Requirements

NOTE

ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above in Fig. 1 

may be detected by the sensors located below the ceramic 

cooktop surface. If the cookware does not meet any of 

these conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will 

not heat indicated by a flashing power level in the digital 

display for that affected zone. Correct the problems before 

attempting to reactivate the cooktop. 

Be sure to follow the following recommendations for 

using cookware as shown:
