BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS Using proper cookware Induction cookware The size and type of cookware used will influence the induction zone power level setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to follow the recommendations for using proper cookware. Before using the induction cooking zones, be sure to carefully read and follow these cookware recommendations and the instructions in the pan sensing section.
Before Setting Surface Controls Benefits of induction surface cooking Fast and efficient - The induction cooking zones heat faster while using less energy. Induction power levels are quick to boil and efficient when simmering. A cooler cooktop - A unique feature of the induction cooking zones is whether turned on or off, the cooking zones remain cooler than radiant type elements. Virtually no wasted heat is produced since the heat begins with the presence of cookware.
Before Setting Surface Controls When using the cooking zones 9 Hot cookware and residual heat • Be sure to use cooktop cookware made with a magnetic base material. • Use quality cooktop cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution, allowing for more even cooking results. Unlike radiant surface elements, the cooking zones will not glow red when they are hot. The glass surface may be hot from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
