•A small amount of water has boiled up in a short time when a
cookware (e.g pan) is placed on the cooking zone at the
highest power level.
•Magnets can stick to the cookware base.
b) The cookware must be as thick as possible and certainly flat. The
certain cookware can make noise (sound) when being used on the
portable induction cooker. That sound is not due to the damage of
the cooker, and it does not affect the operation of the cooker.
c) For a certain type, the induction cooker is sold together with its
pan as one package. That pan is specifically designed to provide
optimum cooking performance. It is recommended not to use other
alternatives for avoiding the adverse effects on the performance
of the cooker. If you are using another pan, note the following
conditions:

material.
•The uneven cookware base should not be used on this cooker
because it can trouble the function and make the glass broken.
•The size of the cooking zone will automatically adjust to the
cookware base to a considerable extent. The cooking zone
size of this cooker is 14.5 –20 cm.
d) The portable induction cooker can identify most of the cookware
except those which are made of the non-magnetic steel.
