How Induction Surface Cooking Works The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated until a pan is placed on the cooking surface. When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan. Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware made of ferrous metals—metals to which magnets will stick, such as iron or steel. Use pans that fit the element size.
Using the Warming Zone (on some models) WARNING FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in food at temperatures below 140°F. ■ Always start with hot food. Do not use warm setting to heat cold food. ■ Do not use warm setting for more than 2 hours. The WARMING ZONE, located in the back center of the glass surface, will keep hot, cooked food at serving temperature. Always start with hot food. Do not use to heat cold food. Placing uncooked or cold food on the WARMING ZONE could result in foodborne illness.
Suitable Cookware Some cookware is specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with induction cooktops. Use a magnet to test if the cookware will work. Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or slight ridges can be used. Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or curved bottoms will not heat evenly. For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed wok. Do not use a wok with a support ring.
Cookware recommendations Cookware must fully contact the surface of the cooking element. INCORRECT CORRECT Cookware not centered on cooking element surface. Cookware centered correctly on cooking element surface. Curved or warped pan bottoms or sides. Flat pan bottom. Pan does not meet the minimum size required for the cooking element used. Pan size meets or exceeds the recommended minimum size for the cooking element used.
