Before Using the Cooktop USE THE CORRECT COOKWARE TYPE - The magnetic Cooking Zone sensors located below the cooktop surface require the use of cookware made with magnetic material in order to start the heating process on any of the Cooking Zones. When purchasing pans, look for cookware specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with Induction cooktops. If you are not sure, use a magnet to test whether the cookware type will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, the material type is correct for Induction cooking (See Fig. 18). Fig. 18 It is recommended to always use heavier high quality stainless steel cookware on your Induction Cooktop surface. This will greatly reduce the possibility of developing scratches on the ceramic surface. Even quality cookware can scratch the cooktop surface, especially if cookware is slid over the ceramic cooktop surface without being lifted up. Overtime sliding ANY type of cookware over the ceramic cooktop will likely alter the overall appearance of the cooktop. Eventually the buildup of scratches will make cleaning the surface difficult and degrade the overall appearance of the cooktop. Minimum Pan Size Requirements for each Cooking Zone r Left Cooking Zone Left Rear Cooking Zone Sooking Zone Right Cooking Zone Right Front Cooking Zone Fig. 19 USE THE CORRECT SIZE COOKWARE - The 5 Cooking Zones available on the Induction Cooktop require a MINIMUM pan size to be used at each location (Fig. 19). The inner ring of each Cooking Zone is your guide to the correct MINIMUM pan size. The pan bottom must FULLY cover the inner ring for proper cooking to occur. The thicker outer ring at each Cooking Zone is helpful to determine the pan MAXIMUM size. After centering the cookware on the cooktop, make sure the cookware does not extend more than 1/2" beyond the thicker line on the Cooking Zone (See example in Fig. 19). The pan must make FULL contact on the glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the metal cooktop trims (Shown in Fig. 19). NOTE: If a pan made of the correct material is centered properly on any of the active Cooking Zones but is TOO SMALL, the affected Cooking Zone LED will display an Fcode and the pan will not heat. 7 Before Using the Cooktop Use Quality Condition Cookware Induction in Good The cookware used with the Induction Cookware Recommendations INCORRECT CORRECT • Cookware not centered on Cooking Zone surface. • Cookware centered correctly on Cooking Zone surface. Cooktop should have flat bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface of the Cooking Zone. Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of the cookware (See Fig. 21 ). Be sure to follow all the recommendations for using cookware as shown in Fig. 20. Also remember to: • Use cookware made with the correct material type for Induction Cooking (See Fig. 18). • Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution allowing for more even cooking results. • The pan size should match the amount of food being prepared. • Do not let pans boil dry. This may cause permanent damage in the form of breakage, fusion, or marring that can affect the ceramic cooktop. (This type of damage is not covered by your warranty). • Do not use dirty pans with grease buildup, Always use pans that are easy to clean after cooking, w W • Curved or warped pan bottoms or sides. • Flat pan bottom & straight sides. w w _,i,i,i,i,i,i,i,i,i,i,!,@!!i!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!!!)!ii!_)_ )ii@!ili_ I_ Min. size _1 • Pan does not meet the minimum size required for the Cooking Zone used (See Fig. 19).

Fig. 20 DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly with hands. Always use oven mitts or pot holders to protect hands from burns. DO NOT SLIDE Cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop. PLEASE NOTE - ANY one of the incorrect conditions listed above in Fig. 20 may be detected by the sensors located below the ceramic cooktop surface. If the cookware does not meet any of these conditions, one or more of the Cooking Zones will not heat indicated by an F in the affected Cooking Zone display. Correct the problems before attempting to reactivate the cooktop. Before Using the Cooktop Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended cooktop cleaning creme (on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cleaner, item number40079) to the ceramic surface. Buffwith a non-abrasive cloth or noscratch cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions. Setting Cooktop Controls Using the Touch Control The recommended way to use the touch pads on the cooktop is shown in Fig. 22. Be sure that your finger is placed in the center of the touch pad as shown, tf the finger is not placed on the center of a pad, the cooktop may not respond to the selection made. Lightly contact the pad with the fiat part of your entire fingertip. Do not just use the narrow end of your fingertip. Fig. 22 Operating the Cooking Zones The Induction cooktop has five Cooking Zones designed for cookware of various sizes.

They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to clean. • Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop. • Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.

Do not use under any circumstances. 2) Aluminum utensils The molting point of aluminum being much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or marking it.
