Cookware tips

Select a pan that is about the same size as the surface unit.

NOTE: For best results and greater energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed cookware that makes good contact with the surface units. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain enamelware), or dented bottoms could cause severe overheating, which damages the cookware and/or surface unit.

You can, however, use the newer cookware available with slightly indented bottoms or very small expansion channels. This cookware is specially designed to provide the good contact needed for best cooking results.

Also, woks, canners, and teakettles with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are now available in most stores that sell housewares.

The pan should have straight sides and a tight-fitting lid.

Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick- ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.

The pan material (metal or glass) affects how fast heat transfers from the surface unit through the pan material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.

Handles should be made of sturdy, heat- resistant material and be securely attached to the pan.

NOTES:

If a surface unit stays red for a long time, the bottom of the pan is not flat enough or is too small for the surface unit, or the control has been left on HI after boiling. Prolonged usage of utensils that are too large could result in damage to the surface unit, cooktop, wiring, and surrounding areas. To prevent damage, use correct utensils and turn control down to continue cooking.

Do not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The utensil could overheat and damage the utensil or surface unit.
