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 glass-
ceramic cooktop surface. Correct the problem before
attempting to use the cooktop.
• Center cookware
on surface of
cooking element.
• Use pans with
flat bottom and
straight sides.
• Diameter of
pan is equal to
or larger than
cooking element.
• Pan rests
completely on
the cooktop
surface.
• Pan is properly
balanced.

Moving Cookware on the Cooktop

Always use heavier gauge, high-quality cookware on
the cooking elements and do not slide it on the glass-
ceramic cooktop surface. Even high-quality cookware
can scratch the cooktop surface.
nOTE
• Always lift cookware before moving it on the
glass-ceramic 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 glass-
ceramic cooktop. If these materials melt on the
cooktop they may damage the glass-ceramic
surface.
Sliding any type of cookware over the surface will
scratch the cooktop over time. Scratches will make
cleaning the glass-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 within 30
seconds.
