Safety Instructions

Selecting types of cookware for radiant glass cooktop models.

Stainless Steel:

recommended

Aluminum:

heavy weight recommended

Good conductivity. Aluminum residues

sometimes appear as scratches on the

cooktop but can be removed if cleaned

immediately. Because of its low melting

point, thin weight aluminum should not

be used.

Copper Bottom:

recommended

Copper may leave residues which can

appear as scratches. The residues can

be removed, as long as the cooktop is

cleaned immediately. However, do not let

these pots boil dry. Overheated metal can

bond to glass cooktops. An overheated

copper bottom pot will leave a residue

that will permanently stain the cooktop

if not removed immediately.

Porcelain Enamel on Cast Iron:

recommended if bottom of pan is coated

Porcelain Enamel on Steel:

not recommended

Heating empty pans can cause permanent

damage to cooktop glass. The enamel can

melt and bond to the ceramic cooktop.

Glass-ceramic:

not recommended

Poor performance. Will scratch the surface.

Stoneware:

not recommended

Poor performance. May scratch the

surface.

Cast Iron:

not recommended—unless designed

specifically for glass cooktops

Poor conductivity and slow to absorb heat.

Will scratch the cooktop surface.

Check pans for flat bottoms by using

a straight edge.

Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or

warped bottoms are not recommended.

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.

For Best Results

■ Place only dry pans on the surface

elements. Do not place lids on the

surface elements, particularly wet lids.

■ Do not use woks that have support

rings. This type of wok will not heat

on glass surface elements.

■ We recommend that you use only a

flat-bottomed wok. They are available

at your local retail store. The bottom

of the wok should have the same

diameter as the surface element

to ensure proper contact.

■ Some special cooking procedures

require specific cookware such as

pressure cookers or deep-fat fryers.

All cookware must have flat bottoms

and be the correct size.

Do not place wet pans

on the glass cooktop.

Do not use woks with support

rings on the glass cooktop.

Use flat-bottomed woks

on the glass cooktop.

NOTE: Follow all cookware manufacturer’s recommendations when using any type of

cookware on the ceramic cooktop.
