Pans should be the same size or larger than the surface
unit to prevent
boilovers
and hot handles.
Only use pans with flat bottoms.
Flat bottoms
allow maximum
contact
between
the pans and the surface
units for fast, even cooking.
Pans with uneven
bottoms
or with a raised pattern
on the bottom
are not suitable.
Flatness of a pan can be
checked
by placing
an edge
of a ruler across it There should not be space
between
the ruler edge
and the bottom
of the pan.
Do not use trivets, woks with skirts, or canners with concave
or ridged
bottoms.
NOTE: If pan bottoms are not fiat, the protective
limiter will sense uneven
cooklng temperatures
and reduce the heat setting. This will result in longer
cooking
times.
See the "Cooking
Guide" for important
utensil intormation.
