Determining Cookware Size
• Do not use cookware that is more than 1/2 inch larger
in diameter than the cooking zone being used.
• For optimal performance, use pots or pans that are
between 1/2 inch smaller and 1/2 inch larger than the
cooking zone being used.
Cookware Placement
IMPORTANT: Center the cookware in the cooking zone.
Cookware that is off center may cause the “no pan
detected” light to come on and shut off power to the
cooking zone.
Before Using the Cooktop
Before using the cooktop for the first time:
• Be sure all packing materials, labels or tape are
removed from the cooktop surface.
• Wipe the cooktop with a clean, damp sponge and dry.
• Apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Crème, according to
• Apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Crème, according to
the Care and Cleaning section.
• During the first uses of the cooktop, you may smell a
slight burning odor or see light smoke. These condi-
tions are normal for new glass ceramic cooktops.
• Be certain that the cookware and glass surfaces are
clean and dry before you place a pot or pan on the
cooktop and turn on an element.
Selecting the Proper Cookware
IMPORTANT:
• It is important to select cookware carefully. Improp-
erly selected utensils will not cook efficiently or
evenly. All utensils used on an induction cooktop
MUST be magnetic (must attract and hold a magnet).
Select cooking utensils that are specifically identi-
fied for use with induction cooktop. Utensils with poor
magnetic conduction will not heat properly, may cause
vibration or cause the no pan detected light to come
on.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with
surface units of different sizes. The cookware must
have heavier flat bottoms and the diameter should be
large enough to cover the surface unit heating ele-
ment. Using cookware that is a lot smaller than the
cooking zone wastes energy and may cause the “no
pan detected” light to come on and shut off power to
the cooking zone.
• Choose cookware that matches the amount of food
being prepared and closely matches the diameter
of one of the cooking zones. Use tight fitting lids to
retain heat, odors and steam.
Do not use:
• Cooking utensils that have bottoms that are rounded,
• Cooking utensils that have bottoms that are rounded,
convex or concave.
• Utensils that are smaller in diameter than the cooking
zone being used.
• Utensils made of materials that are poor heat conduc-
tors.
• Griddle plates that cover more than one cooking zone.
• Dirty pans or pans with greasy build-up.
Improper utensils will not heat properly, wobble and may
• Dirty pans or pans with greasy build-up.
