Induction cookware

When purchasing pans for use on the induction cooktop, look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer as induction ready, induction capable, or a similar statement by the manufacturer that the cookware is specifically designed for induction cooking.

IMPORTANT

Not all stainless steel cookware is readily magnetizable; being made of stainless steel does not assure that the cookware is suitable for induction cooking.

To check if the cookware base material is suitable, use a magnet to test (See Fig. 1). If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the material type is correct.

Induction cookware types

The most common induction cookware types available are:

Stainless steel - Generally, excellent for induction cooking. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast iron - Good for induction cooking. Cooks evenly. Do not slide cast iron cookware on cooktop. Cast iron cookware with a rough surface will scratch ceramic cooktop.

Porcelain-enamel on ferrous metal - Heating characteristics will vary depending on quality of base material. Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktop.

COOKWARE RECOMMENDATIONS

NOTE

•Be sure to follow all the manufacturer’s recommendations when using cookware made for induction cooking.

•Before using the induction cooking zones, be sure to carefully read and follow these cookware recommendations and the section about pan sensing.

When using the cooking zones:

•Be sure to use cooktop cookware made with a magnetic base material.

•Use quality cooktop cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution allowing for more even cooking results.

•Check that cookware bottom rests completely and level on cooktop surface. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire induction cooking zone area. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 2).

•Be sure cookware is properly balanced and does not tilt from a heavy handle.

•Be sure that the pan size matches the amount of food to be prepared. The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results.

•Never let cookware boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that can affect the cooktop.

•Use cookware that meets the minimum and maximum cookware size requirements for each cooking zone.

This electric range not only enhances the cooking experience but also promotes energy efficiency, ensuring that every meal is prepared with ease and precision.

At the heart of the FPIF3093LF is its induction cooking technology. Unlike traditional gas or electric stovetops, induction cooktops use magnetic fields to directly heat pots and pans, leading to faster cooking times and precise temperature control.

The range is equipped with a spacious oven that boasts a generous capacity, allowing users to bake multiple dishes simultaneously or cook large meals without hassle. The true convection technology further enhances baking performance by circulating hot air throughout the oven, ensuring even cooking results no matter the dish. This feature is particularly beneficial for bakers, providing consistent temperatures for perfectly baked goods.

For added convenience, the Frigidaire FPIF3093LF comes with a variety of cooking presets and functions. With options such as self-cleaning, broiling, and delay start, users can easily customize their cooking experience to fit their schedules and preferences. The smooth-top induction surface is also easy to clean, as spills and splatters do not bake onto the cooktop, making post-meal cleanup a breeze.

Safety is another paramount consideration in the design of this range. With features like automatic shut-off and a hot surface indicator, users can cook with confidence, knowing that the appliance is designed with their safety in mind.

Aesthetically, the Frigidaire FPIF3093LF is sleek and modern, featuring a stainless steel finish that fits beautifully in any contemporary kitchen. The intuitive control panel is user-friendly, making it easy for cooks of all skill levels to navigate through its features.
