Surface Operation

CAUTION
Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids should not
be placed on the hob surface since they can get hot.
WARNING
Unattended cooking with fat or oil can be dangerous and may
result in fi re. NEVER try to extinguish a fi re with water, but switch
off the appliance and then cover fl ame e.g. with a lid or a fi re
blanket.
Surface Cooking Tips
• The minimum pot or pan diameter recommended is 5" (13 cm). Use of pots or pans as small as 4" (10 cm) is possible but not
recommended.
• Remember to use the proper size cookware for the size element chosen. Smaller cookware should be used for smaller elements and
larger cookware should be used for larger elements.
Note: If ALL elements are turned to HI for a long period of time, the internal temperature inside the cooktop may rise, causing the cooktop to
turn off .
Induction Cooking Power
The Induction cooktop has 2 or 3 generators and 4 or 6 cooking zones based on the model. Each generator powers 2 cooking zones.
If using more than one cooking zone on high power on the same generator, the maximum cooking power may be reduced. For best
performance results, start cooking on only one zone per shared generator. Once it has reached cooking termperature, start cooking on
the second cooking zone.

DO NOT heat empty cookware or let cookware boil dry. The
cookware can absorb an excessive amount of heat very quickly,
resulting in possible damage to the cookware and ceramic glass.
After use, switch off the element by its control and do not rely on
the pan detector.
