Instructions

Selecting types of cookware for radiant glass cooktop models.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

Safety

Operating Instructions

Care and Cleaning

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residues sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop but can be removed if cleaned immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended

Copper may leave residues which can appear as scratches. The residues can be removed, as long as the cooktop is cleaned immediately. However, do not let these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can bond to glass cooktops. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue that will permanently stain the cooktop if not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron:

recommended if bottom of pan is coated

Porcelain Enamel on Steel:

not recommended

Heating empty pans can cause permanent damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic:

not recommended

Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Cast Iron:

not recommended—unless designed specifically for glass cooktops

Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat. Will scratch the cooktop surface.

Tips

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended.

NOTE: Follow all cookware manufacturer’s recommendations when using any type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting

Do not place wet pans on the glass cooktop.

Do not use woks with support rings on the glass cooktop.

Use flat-bottomed woks 10 on the glass cooktop.

For Best Results

■Place only dry pans on the surface elements. Do not place lids on the surface elements, particularly wet lids.

■Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on glass surface elements.

■We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface element

to ensure proper contact.

■Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers or deep-fat fryers. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the correct size.
