Cookware
Only ferromagnetic pans can be used for induction cooking.
Ferromagnetic materials include:
■

■

■

These types of pans will not work with induction cooking:
■

■

■

■
Copper or aluminum pans
To find out whether your pans can be used with an induction
cooktop, flip the pan over, hold a magnet to the bottom of
the pan, and see whether it sticks. If the magnet sticks to the
bottom of the pan, the pan is ferromagnetic and can be used for
induction cooking.
The number on the surface cooking area heat setting display will
flash if no pan is placed on the surface cooking area, the pan is
not made of the correct material, or it is not the correct size. It
will stop flashing once a suitable pan is placed on the surface
cooking area or when the surface cooking area is turned off.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Choose the correct pan size for each surface cooking area.
The diameter of the pan’s base should correspond to the size
of the flexible cooking area or the bridge cooking area. See the
“Flexible Size Cooking Area” section or the “Bridge” section for
more information.
NOTE: Cookware manufacturers often give the diameter across
the top of the pan. This is usually larger than the diameter of the
base.
Pans with rough finishes may scratch the cooktop.
COOKTOP CARE
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning
products.
Soap, water, and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first
unless otherwise noted.
CERAMIC GLASS
Cleaning Method:
To avoid damaging the cooktop, do not use steel wool, abrasive
powder cleansers, chlorine bleach, rust remover, or ammonia.
1. Remove food/residue with the Cooktop Scraper.
■
For best results, use the Cooktop Scraper while the
cooktop is still warm but not hot to the touch. It is
recommended to wear an oven mitt while scraping
the warm cooktop.
■
Hold the Cooktop Scraper at approximately a 45° angle
against the glass surface and scrape the residue. It will
be necessary to apply pressure in order to remove the
residue.
Allow the cooktop to cool down completely before
proceeding to Step 2.
2. Apply a few dime-sized drops of Cooktop Cleaner to the
affected areas.
■
Rub Cooktop Cleaner onto the cooktop surface with the
blue Cooktop Cleaning Pad. Some pressure is needed to
remove stubborn stains.
■
Allow the cleaner to dry to a white haze before
proceeding to Step 3.
3. Polish with a clean, dry cloth or a clean, dry paper towel.
■
Repeat steps 1 through 3 as necessary for stubborn
or burned-on stains.
