OPERATING THE INDUCTION COOKING ZONES
The cooktop has two induction Cooking Zones designed for cookware of various sizes. Be sure to place cookware that meets the minimum and maximum pan size requirements (Fig. 2, page 14) for the Cooking Zone desired and is best for the amount of food being prepared. Place the cookware with the prepared food on the Cooking Zone BEFORE setting any of the Cooktop controls.
To Turn ON one or more of the Cooking Zones:
1.Place the prepared food using the correct type and size cookware on the desired Cooking Zone. Be sure to center the cookware on Cooking Zone completely covering the minimum ring marked on the Zone surface. PLEASE NOTE: If the cookware requirements for the Cooking Zone (See Fig. 1, page 15) are not met the sensors will detect a problem and display the letter F in
