¾ COOKWARE TIPS
The physical characteristics of pots and pans influence the performance of any cooking systems.
Therefore, emphasis must be placed on the importance of using proper cookware.
Cookware made of high-grade steel 18/10, aluminum, glass, and or copper cannot be used with
any type of induction cooking device.
Only use cookware with a magnetic bottom. (Magnet must remain sticking to the bottom to ensure
an accurate heat transfer between the induction hotplate and your cookware).
Use cooking vessels with flat bottoms and tight fitting lids to conserve energy and shorten cooking
times.
Pan size should match the element size. A slightly larger pan covers the entire element and
prevents spillovers from contacting the heat surface and burning in. Using a smaller pan than the
element is a waste of energy.
To avoid spattering and to maximize efficiency, pan bottoms should be clean and dry before
coming in contact with the elements.
Wipe spills off the element with a damp cloth as soon as it cools to cut down on clean up time. Be
sure the control is
.
To prevent damage use correct cookware, start cooking on the highest temperature and turn control
down to continue cooking.
Never leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The utensil could
overheat and damage the utensils or surface unit.
Always be sure that all control knobs are turned to
and the indicator lights are when you are
not cooking.
