How to Check Pan Petiomance on a Solid Disk Sutiace Unit

Use of comet cookwa~ can affect the cooking pefiomance and cleaning of you cooktop.

The correct mokware reduces the temperature of the cooktop surface and minimizes the chance of spfllovers burning onto the cooktop.

You must use pans with petiectly flat bottoms. Some pans may have curved or rounded bottoms or may be warped If you are unsure of the flatness of your pans you may do this quick test.

Turn your pan upside down on the muntertop, place a ruler flat against the pan surface. The bottom of the pan and the straight edge of the tier

should fit flush against each other all the way across. Turn the tier a full 360 degrees, checking for any spare between the ruler and the bottom of the pan.
