Surface Cooking

Using proper cookware

The size and type of cookware used will influence the setting needed for best cooking results. Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface heating element (See Fig. 2). Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 1).

Be sure to follow the recommendations for using proper cookware as illustrated.

For more information about the ceramic cooktop see “Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance” in the

General Care &

Cleaning section.

Cookware Material Types

The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan bottom. The most popular materials available are:

ALUMINUM - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which will resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.

COPPER - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum above).

STAINLESS STEEL - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

CAST IRON - A poor heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.

PORCELAIN-ENAMEL on METAL - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic cooktops.

GLASS - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

Important Note: DO NOT place EMPTY aluminum, glass or porcelain-enamel coated cookware on the ceramic cooktop! The melting point of cookware made with these materials may be reached quickly especially if left empty & they may bond to the ceramic cooktop. If the cookware melts it WILL damage the cooktop! BE SURE to follow ALL the cookware manufacturer’s suggestions when using ANY type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.
