The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly 

heat is transferred from the surface element to the pan 

bottom. The most popular materials available are:
Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of 

food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware 

resists staining & pitting). If aluminum pans slide across 

the ceramic cooktop, they may leave metal marks which 

will resemble scratches. Remove these marks immediately.
Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily. 

May leave metal marks on ceramic glass (see Aluminum).
Stainless  - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking 

results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain 

heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is 

reached. Not recommended for use on ceramic cooktops.
Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics 

will vary depending on base material. Porcelain-enamel 

coating must be smooth to avoid scratching ceramic 

cooktops.
Glass - Slow heat conductor. Not recommended for 

ceramic cooktop surfaces because it may scratch the glass.

The size and type of cookware used will influence the 

setting needed for best cooking results. Be sure to follow 

the recommendations for using  proper cookware as 

illustrated in Figs. 2 & 3.

Fig. 1

The ceramic glass cooktop has radiant surface elements 

located below the surface of the glass. The patterns on 

the ceramic glass will outline the size and type of element 

available. The single radiant element will have one round 

outline pattern shown (keep warm zone is designed to 

keep food warm only). The dual radiant element is flexible 

because you may set just the smaller inner portion as a 

single element or both inner and outer portions can be set 

to heat together (See Fig. 1).

Do not place empty aluminum, glass or porcelain-enamel 

coated cookware on the ceramic cooktop! The melting point 

of some cookware may be reached if left on the cooktop 

empty and then can bond to the ceramic cooktop. If the 

cookware melts it will damage the cooktop! Be sure to 

follow all the cookware manufacturer’s suggestions when 

using any type of cookware on the ceramic cooktop.

Cookware should have flat 

bottoms that make good 

contact with the entire surface 

heating element (See Fig. 2). 

Check for flatness by rotating a 

ruler across the bottom of the 

cookware (See Fig. 3).

●  Flat bottom and straight 

sides.

●  Tight fitting lids.
●  Weight of handle does 

not tilt pan. Pan is well 

balanced.

●  Pan sizes match the 

amount of food to be 

prepares and the size of 

the surface element.

●  Made of a material that 

conducts heat well.

●  Easy to clean.
●  Always match pot 

diameter to element size.

●  Curved and warped pan.

●  Pan larger than cooking area 

marked on cooktop by more 

than one-half inch or 12mm.

●  Heavy handle tilts pan.

●  Pan is smaller or larger 

than heating area marked 

on cooktop
