    • Glazed cooking utensils: Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable without breaking due to sudden temperature changes. Check the manufacturer's recommendations.

    Cookware to avoid or use with caution:

    • Cast Iron: Not recommended for ceramic cooktops.
    • Glass: Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

    Proper cookware characteristics:

    • Flat bottom and straight sides.
    • Tight-fitting lids.
    • Weight of handle does not tilt pan.
    • Pan sizes match the amount of food and the size of the surface element.
    • Made of a material that conducts heat well.
    • Easy to clean.
    • Always match pot diameter to element size.

    Cookware to avoid:

    • Curved and warped pans.
    • Pans larger than the cooking area marked on the cooktop by more than one-half inch.
    • Pans with heavy handles that tilt the pan.
    • Pans smaller or larger than the heating area marked on the cooktop.
