32 OPERATION
Noises during Cooktop Operation
• Induction Sound: The electronic processes
involved with induction cooking create some
unfamiliar background noises such as a slight
buzzing sound. These noises are a normal part
of the induction cooking process.
• Cookware Vibration Sound: Some cookware
will buzz, depending on its construction or base
material. The buzz may be more noticeable if the
pan or its contents are cold or if the bottom of
the pan is not flat. As the pan heats up, the noise
will decrease. The noise will also decrease if the
power level setting is reduced.
• Cooling Fan Sound: The fan may operate while
the induction cooktop is in use to reduce the
temperature of the product. The cooling fan may
also operate after the cooktop is turned off.
NOTE
• When using the induction cooktop, operational
noises are more noticeable while cooking in
Boost mode. But very loud noises are not
normal when induction cooking.
Hot Cookware and Residual Heat
CAUTION
• Unlike radiant surface elements, induction
cooking elements do not glow red when hot. You
can be burned if the glass surface is hot from the
residual heat transferred from the cookware. Do
not touch hot cookware or pans. Use oven mitts
or potholders to protect hands from burns.
Cooking Areas
The cooktop is equipped with four induction
cooking elements of different sizes and a radiant
heat warming zone. The wattage ratings below are
maximum outputs. The second rating is the
maximum output for Boost mode.
a
Induction Left Front Cooking Element:
8", 2100 W / 3200 W (240 V)
b
Induction Right Front Cooking Element:
11", 2400 W / 4300 W (240 V)
c
Induction Left Rear Cooking Element:
6", 1300 W / 1800 W (240 V)
d
Induction Center Rear Cooking Element:
6", 1300 W / 1800 W (240 V)
e
Radiant Heat Warm Zone
6", 100W (240 V)
Benefits of Induction Surface
Cooking
Speed and Efficiency
Induction cooking elements heat faster and use
less energy. Induction power levels quickly boil
liquids and are efficient when simmering.
A Cooler Cooktop
Whether induction cooking elements are turned
on or off, they remain cooler than radiant
elements. Virtually no heat is wasted because the
heat begins with the presence of cookware.
Easy Cleanups
Cooler cooking elements make for easier cleaning.
Spills resist sticking or burning so they wipe up
easily.
Pan Size Detection
A sensor automatically detects and adapts the
induction cooking element to the pan size in use
for more consistent, even cooking.
Greater Responsiveness
Induction cooking elements are more responsive
than their electric or gas counterparts because
only the pan heats. Induction elements heat more
easily and are just as responsive when reducing
temperatures to a simmer.
Induction Cookware
NOTE
• Before using the induction cooking elements,
carefully read and follow these cookware
recommendations and the instructions in the
pan sensing sections.
When purchasing pans for use on the induction
cooktop, look for cookware identified by the
