Before Using the Cooktop
USETHE CORRECTCOOKWARE
m[]mm[]mmmmmmmm[]mmmmmmmm
The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors located below the cooktop surface
require the use of cookware made with magnetic material in order to start
the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones.
When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically identified by the
manufacturer for use with Induction cooktops. If your not sure, use a
magnet to test whether the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to
the bottom of the cookware, the material type is correct for Induction Fig. 18
cooking (See Fig. 18).
It is recommended to always use heavier high quality stainless steel cookware on your Induction Cooktop sur-
face. This will greatly reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface.
Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface, especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop
surface without being lifted up. Over time sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter
the overall appearance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult
and degrade the overall appearance of the cooktop.

USE THE CORRECT SIZE COOK-
WARE - The 4 Cooking Zones avail-
able on the Induction Cooktop require a
MINIMUM pan size to be used at each
location (Fig. 19). The inner ring of
each Cooking Zone is your guide to the
correct MINIMUM pan size. The pan
bottom must FULLY cover the inner
ring for proper cooking to occur,
The thicker outer ring at each Cooking
Zone is helpful to determine the pan
MAXIMUM size. After centering the
cookware of the cooktop, make sure
the cookware does not extend more
than ½" beyond the thicker line on the
Cooking Zone (See example in Fig.
19). The pan must make FULL contact
on the glass surface without the bottom
of the pan touching the metal cooktop
trims (Shown in Fig. 19).

PLEASE NOTE - ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above in Fig. 20 may be
detected by the sensors located below the ceramic cooktop surface. If the cookware
does not meet any of these conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will not
heat indicated by an Fin the affected Cooking Zone display. Correct the problems
before attempting to activate the cooktop.

Before Using the Cooktop
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. 21). Be sure to follow all the
recommendations for using cookware as shown in Fig. 20.
Also remember to:
• Use cookware made with the correct material type for
Induction Cooking (See Fig. 18).
• 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.
Fig. 21
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.

Your cooktop is equipped with four induction
elements within two heating sections. The
right-hand and left-hand Cooking Zones are
powered by two independent induction
inverters - one inverter for each of the two
heating sections. Two Cooking Zones in a
heating section share the power of one
inverter. This is called Power Sharing.
For example, if pans are cooking food items
on both right-hand Cooking Zones, the last
Power Level set will be maintained, while the
first pan may experience a slight reduction
in the power level setting.

POWER SHARING TIPS: Remember to set the power level for the food item you wish to
maintain last. Or, you may choose to maintain a constant power level for 2 food items by
placing the pans on one of the Cooking Zones of the left-hand heating section and the
other pan on one of the Cooking Zones of the right-hand heating section (See Fig. 23).

The electronic processes involved with Induction Cooking create some unusual
background noises. These noises are normal and part of the Induction Cooking process.
Please note that these noises are more noticeable while cooking at the Power BOOST
level. Very loud noises are not part of normal Induction Cooking.

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 no-scratch cleaning 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.
Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause
metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed
immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning
cream. Metal marks can become 3ermanent if not removed prior to future
use.
Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark
or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass
across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work
surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface Fig. 24
without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop,
because they may cause itto crack.

For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the cooktop. Use a paper towel or
use a non-abrasive plastic type no-scratch pad to clean the entire cooktop surface. Make sure
the cooktop is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of CookTop® Cleaning Creme directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area
using a non-abrasive plastic type no-scratch pad, applying pressure as needed. Do not use
the pad you use to clean the cooktop for any other purpose.

If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding
scraper at a 30 degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cooktop
cleaning cream and buff surface clean.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you use
an abrasive type scratch pad. Only use cleaning products that have been
specifically designed for ceramic glass cooktop.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled or melted onto the
ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop
surface) may occur if not removed immediately. After turning the surface
elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and
scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to cool, and
use the same method for heavy or burned on soils.
Do not use the following on the ceramic cooktop (See Fig. 26):
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and
some nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more
difficult to clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or
oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop.
. Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave
soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
* Aluminum foil - Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use thin aluminum
cooking utensils or allow foil to touch the ceramic cooktop under ANY circumstances.
* Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other
metals. Care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the cooktop. If
allowed to boil dry, not only will the utensil be destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or mark
the ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the cooktop surface.
