Cookware Placement
Use the proper cookware and place it correctly on the cooktop.
One or more of the cooking elements will not heat if any of the
incorrect conditions shown is detected by the sensors located
below the ceramic cooktop surface. Correct the problem before
attempting to use the cooktop.
Correct
• Cookware is centered correctly on
surface of cooking element.
• Pan has flat bottom and straight
sides.
• Pan size meets or exceeds the
recommended minimum size for
the cooking element.
• Pan rests completely on the
cooktop surface.
• Pan is properly balanced.
Incorrect
• Cookware is not centered on
surface of cooking element.
• Pan has curved or warped bottom
or sides.
• Pan does not meet the minimum
size required for the cooking
element used.
• Pan bottom rests on cooktop trim
or does not rest completely on the
cooktop surface.
• Pan is unbalanced by heavy
handle.
FUNCIONAMIENTO
Moving Cookware on the Cooktop
Always use heavier gauge, high-quality cookware on the
cooking elements and do not slide it on the ceramic cooktop
surface. Even high-quality cookware can scratch the cooktop
surface.
NOTA
• Always lift cookware before moving it on the ceramic
glass surface. Any cookware that has a rough or dirty
bottom can mark and scratch the cooktop surface.
Always start with clean cookware.
• Do not allow aluminum foil or any material that can melt
to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these
materials melt on the cooktop they may damage the
ceramic glass surface.
Sliding any type of cookware over the surface will scratch the
cooktop over time. Scratches will make cleaning the ceramic
cooktop difficult and degrade the appearance of the cooktop.
Pan Sensing
The cooking-element sensors located below the cooktop
surface require certain cookware conditions to be met before
the induction cooking elements can operate.
The cooking zone LED bar may display a pan sensing error
message. If a cooking element is activated and no cookware
is detected, the affected induction cooking zone LED bar will
fluctuate. If the cookware does not meet the correct conditions,
the cooking zone may not heat.
If the problem is not corrected, the affected cooking element
will automatically deactivate after one minute.
