Kenmore ELITE 790.428 - Manual (Page 8)

Use Quality Cookware in Good
Condition
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.

may occur.
Induction Cookware Recommendations

COOKWARE or PANS directly with
hands. Always use oven mitts or pot
holders to protect hands from burns.

across the cooktop surface. Doing so
may permanently damage the appearance
of the ceramic cooktop.
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 F in the affected Cooking Zone display. Correct the problems
before attempting to activate the cooktop.
