Before Using the Cooktop

USE QUALITY COOKWARE IN GOOD CONDITION

The cookware used with the Induction Cooktop should have flat bottoms that make good
contact with the entire surface of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler
across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 1). Be sure to follow all the recommendations
for using cookware as shown in Fig. 1, page 15.
Also remember to:
• Use cookware made with the correct material type for
Induction Cooking (See Fig. 1, page 14).
• Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better
heat distribution allowing for more even cooking
results.
• The pan size should match the amount of food being
prepared.
• Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent
damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring
that can affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of
damage is not covered by your warranty).
• Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup. Always use
pans that are easy to clean after cooking.

DO NOT SLIDE Cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the
appearance of the ceramic cooktop.
Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning
creme to the ceramic surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will make
cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a
protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
