Safety Instructions

Selecting types of cookware.

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

Stainless Steel: PAN

Porcelain Enamel-Covered Cookware: PAN

PAN

not recommended

recommended

Some porcelain-covered cookware can bond to the hot cooking surface.

Aluminum: PAN

Operating Instructions

Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.

heavyweight 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: PAN

recommended

Glass-Ceramic/Stoneware: xPAN

not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the surface.

Use pans that match the diameter of the surface unit. Cooking performance will not be as good if the cookware is either smaller or larger than the surface unit.

Tips Care and Cleaning

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not recommended. Pan Detection/Sizing may not work properly with these types of pans.

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.

PAN Pan Detection/Sizing will work properly with these types of cookware.

xPAN Pan Detection/Sizing will not work with these types of pans.

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 on the glass cooktop.

For Best Results

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

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

Use only a flat-bottomed wok, available from many popular cookware manufacturers. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface unit to insure proper contact.

Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers, deep-fat fryers, etc. All cookware must have flat bottoms that match the size of the surface units.
