problems
before attempting
to reactivate the cooktop.

Zones available
on the Induction

require a MINIMUM
pan size to be used at each location
(Figs. 8 & 9).
The outer tip of each Cooking
Zone cross-hair

of
the Cooking

the bottom
of the pan touching
the
metal
cooktop
trims.

If a pan made of the correct
material
is centered
properly
on any of the active Cooking
Zones but is TOO
SMALL° the affected
Cooking
Zone display
will flash the
power level and the pan will not heat.
