NOTE
• The cookware heating indicator level is based on
the manufacturer's internal standards and is for
reference only.
• The indicator level may vary depending on the
usage environment, power voltage and
cookware temperature.
• The indicator level may vary from element to
element even for the same type of cookware.
• For efficient cooking, use cookware with an
indicator level of 9 or above.

• If the indicator level is low, check the base
material, size and shape of the cookware.
Cookware with a low indicator level, even if it has
an IH mark, may heat less efficiently or make
noise when heated. This is normal, and the
cookware can still be used safely.
