Surface element does
not heat or does not
heat evenly. • Be sure the correct surface control knob is turned on for element needed.
• Be sure to use the correct cookware material type for induction cooking. Use cookware specifically iden-
tified by the manufacturer to use for induction cooking. If you’re not sure, use a magnet to test whether
the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the material type is
correct for induction cooking. Be sure to read about pan-sensing in the Induction Cooking section and
correct any pansensing issues in the checklist provided. Use quality heavier gauge cookware.
Oven smokes exces-
sively when broiling. • Incorrect setting. Follow the “Setting Broil” instructions on page 28 .
• Meat too close to the broil element. Reposition the broil rack to provide proper clearance between the
meat and the element. Preheat the broil element for searing. Meat not properly prepared. Remove
excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.
• Grease has built up on oven surfaces. Regular cleaning is necessary when broiling frequently. Old grease
or food spatters cause excessive smoking.

smoking from oven

• If your oven is cooking poorly, perform the following check: Press Broil. Then press START. Place your
hand near the handle on the oven door. Between the door and the control panel, you should feel a rush
of air on your hand. If so, your unit is functioning properly and you have had a power failure in your
home. If no air rush happens, call a service technician to replace your cooling fan.
Scratches or abrasions
on cooktop surface. • Coarse particles such as salt or hardened soils between cooktop and utensils can cause scratches. Be
