Before Using Cooktop
Ceramic Glass Cooktop
All products are wiped clean with solvents at the
factory to remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, and
grease which may have remained from the
manufacturing process. Clean your glass top
before the first time you use it. A thorough
cleaning with a glass top cleaner is recommended.
Induction Cookware
Induction cooking utilizes magnetic power
which reacts with iron in the base of
cookware, instantly
transforming the pot
or pan into the heat
source. The heat stops
when the cookware is
removed. Your
cookware MUST have
a magnetic layer of
steel for your induction cooktop to operate properly.
The cookware should have a flat, heavy magnetic
bottom and straight sides with a diameter of 5" (13 cm)
to 12" (31 cm) to accommodate the various sized
elements. The induction cookware should be in good
condition and free from excessive dents on the
bottom to provide maximum performance and
convenience.
All Viking cookware is induction friendly, as are most
other high-end brands of stainless steel and enamel
cookware. Most induction cookware will be suitable
for your induction cooktop if a magnet adheres to the
bottom surface.
