Before Using the Cooktop
Power Level 1 to Boost
If you set a cook zone power level from 1 to Boost but no
pan is present, a U-shaped symbol (representing the cross-
section of a pan) alternates with the setting number (or
letter “b” when in boost mode) on the readout, signalling
that no cookware is detected.
Correctly Sizing/Placing the Cookware
A cook zone will shut itself off after 10 minutes if it cannot
detect cookware. To ensure your cookware is detected:
• Use a pan that is no larger/smaller than 1/2” of the
cook zone perimeter. (If the cookware is too small, the
cooktop might not detect it; if the pan is too large, heating
efficiency may be compromised.)
• Center your magnetic pan within the cook zone.
About the Cookware
WARNING
Use correct pan sizes. The cooktop features four sizes of cook
zones (five, if you count the bridge feature). The cookware
diameter should be large enough to cover the cook zone. Using
undersized cookware exposes part of the heating element,
which reduces heating efficiency and may be a safety hazard.
• Improper cookware will not cook efficiently or evenly,
and in some cases is unsafe; therefore, it is important to
select cookware constructed of ferrous (i.e., magnetic)
material such as cast iron or cookware specifically
designed for induction cooking, which typically is marked
(on the bottom) with this universal symbol:
• Non-magnetic cookware will not heat food and may
cause vibration or activate the “No Pan Detected”
indicator: (See pan-detection description, this page.)
• Choose cookware that can accommodate the quantity of
food being prepared.
• Use tight-fitting lids to retain heat and avoid spills.
Do not use:
• cookware with round (bowed, convex) bottoms or rough
bottoms that could scratch the glass cooktop
• griddle plates that cover multiple cook zones (except
when using the bridge feature)
• greasy/grimy/dusty/damaged cookware.
About Pan Detection
Active cook zones on your cooktop will not heat up unless
an induction-compatible pot/pan is placed within the zone.
If you turn ON a cook zone and set a heat level, but—
• no cookware is present
• the cookware is not properly placed within the zone
• you remove the cookware you placed in the cook zone
without turning OFF the zone
—a certain symbol (depending on the setting) appears in
the digital readout above the heat-level ramp, indicating
that no cookware is detected.
Simmer Level
If you set a cook zone heat level at Simmer but no pan
is present, a U-shaped symbol (representing the cross-
section of a pan) “bobs” up and down on the digital
readout, signalling that no cookware is detected.
