6IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Improper cookware may break due to sud-
den changes in temperature. Check the cook-
ware manufacturer’s recommendations for
cooktop use.
Use proper pan size - This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of
different sizes. Select cookware with flat bot-
toms that match the surface unit size. Using
the proper cookware on the cooking area will
improve efficiency.
Never leave surface elements unattended.
Boil-overs may cause smoking and greasy
spills that may ignite. A pan that has boiled
dry could be damaged and may damage the
cooktop.
When you are flaming foods under a ventilat-
ing hood, turn on the fan.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR INDUCTION COOKTOP
CAUTION
Persons with a pacemaker or similar medi-
cal device should exercise caution using or
standing near an induction unit while it is in
operation, as the electromagnetic field may
affect the working of the pacemaker or sim-
ilar medical device. It would be advisable
to consult your doctor or the pacemaker or
similar medical device manufacturer about
your particular situation.
Know which knob or key controls each sur-
face heating area. Place cookware with food
on the cooking area before turning it on. Turn
the cooking area off before removing the
cookware.
Cookware handles should be turned inward
and not extend over adjacent surface ele-
ments. — To reduce the risk of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage due
to unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the cookware should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not ex-
tend over other cooking areas.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain types
of cookware are suitable for cook top service
and must be magnetic to work properly on
the induction zones. Check the manufactur-
er’s recommendations for cook top use to
ensure that the cookware is compatible with
induction cooking.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR GLASS
AND CERAMIC COOKTOPS
Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop.
If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions
and spillovers may penetrate the broken
cooktop and create a risk of electric shock.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
CAUTION
Although induction cooking zones do not pro-
duce heat, they can become hot from contact
with hot cookware. Burns may occur if a cooking
zone or the surrounding area is touched before it
has cooled to a safe temperature.
NOTE
Be sure to read detailed instructions for induction
cooktop cleaning in the “Care and Cleaning” sec-
tion and “Before You Call” checklist section of this
Use and Care Manual.
Sounds
The magnetic field over the induction cooking zone
may cause cookware to vibrate, creating a buzzing or
humming noise. These sounds are not unusual, espe-
cially at high settings.
Cookware that is not
perfectly flat on the
bottom may vibrate
slightly against the
cooktop.
A loose handle may
vibrate in its socket.
Multi-material cookware
may allow small vibra-
tions in its structure.
Figure 1: Induction sounds
Sounds are less likely to occur with heavier, higher
quality cookware.
An induction cooktop may also produce faint clicking
sounds from the electronic switches that maintain the
desired cooking temperature. You may also hear a fan
that cools the electronics inside the cooktop.
How does induction work?
Most cooking uses radiant heat that must pass through
the cookware to get food hot. Induction is a process
that induces heat with an energy reaction. When each
cooking zone is turned on, power goes to a coil under
the cooktop. The powered coil creates an electro-
magnetic field. The electromagnetic field reacts with
compatible materials in cookware, creating heat in the
cookware itself. The power level controls the heating
level, delivering precise results.
Induction Benefits
Because heat starts in the cookware instead of the
cooktop, induction offers several advantages.
Cleaner cooking: Because induction works by heating
the cookware and not the cooktop, spills don’t cook or
stick to the surface.
Cooler Cooktop: An induction cooktop will be cool-
er when you remove cookware than a conventional
cooktop would be. The only radiant heat produced
in induction is from the cookware itself, so the kitchen
stays cooler, too.
Fast Heating: Cookware will heat up faster than on a
conventional electric cooktop. Pay close attention to
avoid scorching food when starting to cook. You may
need to use a lower setting for cooking food than you
are used to.
Precise Control: The heat going into the cookware will
change immediately when you change the setting of
the cooking zone.
Even Heating: Cookware will typically heat more
evenly on an induction cooktop, so you are less likely
to have hot or cool spots in the cookware.
Energy Efficiency: Because induction creates heat
directly in the pan, it uses less electricity than a con-
ventional cooktop.
Before Using Your Cooktop
Before using your cooktop for the first time, apply a
ceramic cooktop cleaning cream (available in most
hardware, grocery, and department stores) to the
ceramic surface. Clean and buff with a clean paper
towel. Cooktop cleaning creams leave a protective
finish on the glass that will make cleaning easier when
the cooktop is soiled from cooking and help prevent
scratches and abrasions.

10 BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Using Proper Cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence the
heat setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure
to follow the recommendations for using proper cook-
ware as illustrated in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Testing cookware
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across the
bottom of the cookware
(see Figure 1). Cookware
should have flat bottoms
that make good contact
with the entire surface of
the heating element (see
Figure 2).
Cookware Material Types
Cookware material is especially important when
using an induction cooktop. The cookware must
contain magnetic iron or steel to work on an in-
duction cooktop. Common materials for induction
cookware include the following:
• Stainless Steel - Slow heat conductor. Durable,
easy to clean, and resists staining. Some types
of stainless steel will not work on an induction
cooktop. Use the magnet test (see “Figure 4:
Magnet test”) to check stainless steel cookware.
• Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor that retains
heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking tem-
perature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating charac-
teristics will vary depending on the base ma-
terial. Porcelain-enamel on a compatible metal
will work on an induction cooktop. Use the
magnet test to check porcelain-enamel cook-
ware.
To see if a piece of cookware will work on your
induction cooktop, try to stick a magnet to it. If the
magnet clings firmly to the bottom of the cook-
ware, the cookware will work on your induction
cooktop
Cookware sold as induc-
tion-ready will often have a
symbol printed on the bottom
by the manufacturer.
Figure 3: Induction symbol
The Magnet Test
To see if a piece of cookware will work on your induc-
tion cooktop, try to stick a magnet to it (see Figure 2).
If the magnet clings firmly to the bottom of the cook-
ware, it will work on your induction cooktop. If the
magnet clings weakly or not at all, the cookware will
not heat up on your induction cooktop.

CAUTION
Proper cookware on an operating induction cook-
ing zone will heat up very quickly. If an empty
piece of cookware is left on an operating induc-
tion cooking zone, the rapid change in tempera-
ture may warp or damage the cookware.
Do NOT place hot cookware on the control panel.
The heat may damage the electronic parts.

Minimum and Maximum Pan Size
The cooktop graphics are guides to minimum and
maximum pan size for each cooking zone. For best
results, use cookware that matches the size of the
cooking zone.
The inner ring on each cooking zone indicates the
smallest pan size for the zone (Figure 8).
The outer ring on the cooktop graphic indicates the
largest pan size for that zone (Figure 9).
Cookware that is too small for a zone may not activate
the cookware detection sensor. Cookware that is much
larger than a cooking zone will still cook, but may be
slower and uneven. If your cookware is not a perfect
match, it is best to use a zone a little smaller than the
bottom of the cookware.
Figure 7: Zone one min / max pan size
Figure 8: Zone two min / max pan size
When the cooktop is on, the cooking zones auto-
matically detect when cookware is placed on the
zone. The control for that zone will light up, making
it easy to know which section of the control to use
for that cooking zone.
If you remove a pan from an active cooking zone, the
zone will turn off after 30 seconds.
If the cooktop does not detect cookware in any zone
for 30 seconds, the whole cooktop will turn off.

BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
CAUTION
• Although induction cooking zones do not di-
rectly generate heat, they can become hot from
contact with hot cookware. Burns may occur if a
cooking zone or the surrounding area is touched
before it has cooled to a safe temperature.
• Do not place flammable items such as plas-
tic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or
plastic wrapping on top of the range when it is in
use. Heat radiating from cookware could cause
these items to melt or ignite. Potholders, towels,
or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too
close to hot cookware.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the
cooktop. Improper installation of these liners
may result in risk of electric shock or fire. If these
items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the
cooktop.
Moving Cookware on a Smooth Cooktop
It’s best to lift cookware before moving it on the ce-
ramic glass cooktop. Cookware that has a rough or
dirty bottom can mark and scratch the ceramic glass
surface. Always start with clean cookware.
Figure 13: Move cookware carefully on cooktop
Power Management
Your induction cooktop has 2 or 3 generators and
4 or 5 cooking zones, depending on the model. A
generator may power 1 or 2 cooking zones. If you
use more than one cooking zone on high power at
the same time and they are on the same gener-
ator, the cooktop may need to manage power to
the two cooking zones.
Figure 14: Power management, 4 cook zones
Figure 15: Power management, 5 cook zones
To get the best performance from your cooktop, start
cooking on only one cooking zone. After the first piece
of cookware has reached cooking temperature, then
start cooking on the second cooking zone.

14 BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points
when home canning with your appliance. Check with
the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture)
Web site and be sure to read all the information they
have available as well as follow their recommenda-
tions for home canning procedures.
• Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no
ridges that radiate from the bottom center when
home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when
the bottom surface is flat. Use a straight-edge to
check canner bottom.
• Make sure the diameter of the canner does not ex-
ceed 1 inch beyond the surface element markings
or burner.
• It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners
on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops and to
center canners on the burner grates.
• Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more
quickly.
• Use the highest heat setting when first bringing the
water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce
heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that
boil.
• Use tested recipes and follow instructions careful-
ly. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural
Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars
for the latest canning information.
• It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high
heat for an extended amount of time.

NOTE
A cooking zone will not become active without
proper cookware in position. See “Pan Sensing” on
page 11.
If the cooktop does not detect cookware within 30
seconds, it will turn off.
Suggested induction cooking zone settings
Start most cooking operations on a higher setting and
then turn to a lower setting to finish cooking.
The suggested settings found in Table 1 below are
based on cooking with medium-weight stainless steel
pans with lids. Settings may vary when using other
types of pans.

NOTE:
• The size and type of the cookware used and the
amount and type of food being cooked will influ-
ence the setting needed for best cooking results.
• The Max setting is available after activating a
cooking zone by pressing the MAX key. The cook-
top will remain on Max for up to 10 minutes. After
10 minutes, the cooking zone will automatically
change to the high (9) setting.
• The Hot Surface indicator (Hot) will show in the
setting indicator when heat is detected in a cook
zone that has been turned off. The indicator will re-
main on until the heated surface area has cooled
sufficiently.

Precise Temperature Control
Precise Temperature Control uses a tem-
perature sensor to maintain a consistent
temperature when cooking. When cool
batter, liquid, or food is added to a hot
pan, the pan cools down a little.
Precise Temperature Control senses this change and
will use extra power to maintain the desired tempera-
ture setting. The feature also lets you know when your
cookware is preheated, so making pancakes or sau-
téing fresh food has better results.
The temperature of your cookware will depend on the
level you select and the material of the cookware you
use. Experiment a little to determine what worksfor you
for cooking various dishes. Different pots and pans
will hold at different temperatures, so you will need to
learn how your cookware works with this feature.
Precise Temperature Control is available for some

You can change the Precise Temperature Control set-
ting at any time by pressing another number key. The

To deactivate the Precise Temperature Control func-
tion, press the Precise Temperature Control Indicator.
NOTE
To get an idea of how hot a piece of cookware will
get at a particular setting, try the Magnet Test (page
10). The more strongly a magnet clings to the
cookware, the hotter that cookware will get at any
particular setting on the cooktop.
To get consistent results, use the same piece of
cookware for particular cooking tasks.
When using small amounts of oil for frying or sau-
téing, add the oil after the pan is preheated.
Keep an eye on your cookware during preheat.
Induction is powerful, and letting cookware get too
hot while empty may warp or damage it.

20 CARE AND CLEANING
Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possi-
ble. Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major
cleaning later.
Figure 25: Use cleaners with caution
Surface or Area Cleaning Recommendation
Aluminum and vinyl Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water. Rinse with
clean water, dry and polish with a soft, clean cloth.
Painted body parts
Painted decorative trims
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50
solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water, dry and polish with
a soft, clean cloth. Glass cleaners may be used, but do not apply directly
to surface; spray onto cloth and wipe.
Control panel Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50
solution of vinegar and water. Do not spray liquids directly on the oven
control and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the con-
trol panel - excess water on the control area may cause damage to the
appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring
pads, or paper towels - they will damage the finish.
Stainless Steel Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50
solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water, dry with a soft
clean cloth. Do not use cleaners containing abrasives, chlorides, chlorine,
or ammonia.
CAUTION
Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure
all controls are turned off and the appliance is cool.
