INDUCTION COOKTOP ELEMENTS
Be sure you know which touch control operates each
surface heating unit. Place a pan of food on the unit
before turning it on, and turn the unit o before removing the
pan.
Use proper pan sizes - This appliance is equipped with
surface units of dierent sizes. Select pots and pans that
have flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface area of
the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose
a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may
result in the ignition of clothing. Matching the size of the pot
or pan to the burner will also improve eciency.
Cookware Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Elements - To reduce the
risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due
to unintentional contact with the cookware, cookware handles
should be positioned so that they are turned inward, and do
not extend over adjacent surface units.
Glazed Cookware - Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware
are suitable for range-top service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature.
Never Leave Surface Elements Unattended at High
Heat Settings - Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. A pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
Metallic objects such as knives, forks, spoons, and lids
should not be placed on the Induction Cooktop surface
since they can get hot.
When preparing flaming foods under a ventilating
hood, turn the fan on.
English - 11
