Shape, Size
• Utensils must have a bottom diameter over 4 inches in order to work on the
induction cooktop.
• The bottom of the utensil does not need to be perfectly flat to be used;
however, a warped pan may move around on the cooktop surface. Pan
warping could also cause some
cooking problems when trying to
cook small volumes of food, such
as eggs, since these may not cook
evenly.
• For more even browning when
pan-frying or pan-broiling, use a
skillet with a bottom diameter of 8
to 81/2 inches, or smaller, on the
large element. (Note: the ....... 3.
measurement given for skillets
and frypans by manufacturers is
the top diameter). (See Fig. O)
• Depending on the shape of the
utensil, some round bottom pans
(such as woks) may not work on
the induction cartridge even
though made from ferromagnetic
materials. Fig. O
• Utensils with indentions or legs
may work but with poor
performance.

• Round shaped pans are better
than rectangular ones since the
latter may warp and browning
results will not be even.
• The utensil size should match the
cooking area being used. (See
Fig. P)
• Only use utensils designed for
surface cooking. Fig. P
Important
• Do not use aluminum foil or foil containers on the cooktop. Aluminum
foil and some containers are made from magnetic materials which will
become hot very quickly.
