INDUCTION COOKING ZONES

One or more incorrect cookware conditions may be

detected by sensors located below the cooking zones. If

the cookware does not meet the correct conditions, the

cooking zones may not heat. Use the checklist below to

correct the problem(s) before attempting to reactivate

cooking zones.

IMPORTANT

Correct Incorrect

• Cookware centered correctly

on cooking zone.

• Flat pan bottom and straight

sides.

• Pan size meets or exceeds

the recommended minimum

size for cooking zone.

• Pan rests completely and is

level on the cooktop

surface.

• Pan is properly balanced.

• Pan does not meet the minimum

size required (too small) for

cooking zone.

• Pan bottom rests on cooktop

edge.

• Heavy handle tilts pan.

• Cookware not centered on

cooking zone.

• Curved or warped pan bottoms

or sides.

• Cookware base material has

good magnetic characteristics. • Cookware base material is

non-magnetic.

It is recommended that you lower the requested power

level setting before correcting the pan sensing message.

Be sure to check that the cookware has met all the correct

conditions listed in Fig. 2. Use this checklist as a guide to

help to correct the problem or problems before attempting

to reactivate any of the cooking zones.

Pan sensing

The cooking zone sensors located below the cooktop

surface require that certain cookware conditions are met

before the induction cooking zones can operate.

The cooking zone display windows may display a pan

sensing error message. If a cooking zone was activated and

no pan or cookware is detected, the affected induction

cooking zone display window will flash with the last power

level request setting (See Fig. 1).

The conditions that may generate a flashing error message

are also illustrated in the incorrect column in Fig. 2.

NOTE

Fig. 1

If the problem or problems are not corrected the affected

cooking zone will automatically deactivate after 3 minutes.
