Minimum and Maximum Pan Size
There are four cooking elements on the induction cooktop. Each element requires a appropriate pan size to be used effectively. The bottom size of the pan must be between the maximum and minimum diameter A for proper cooking to occur.
 |  |
Cooking Area | Heater | Diameter of Pan Bottom A | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Type | Size (inch) | Min. | Max. | |
a | Induction | 8 | 7.5 inch (190 mm) | 9.2 inch (224 mm) |
b | Induction | 11 | 9.5 inch (241 mm) | 11.8 inch (300 mm) |
c | Induction | 6 | 5.5 inch (140 mm) | 7.0 inch (178 mm) |
d | Induction | 6 | 5.5 inch (140 mm) | 7.0 inch (178 mm) |
e | Warm | 6 | - | - |
The pan must make full contact with the glass surface without the bottom of the pan touching the metal cooktop trim.
If the correct induction cookware—centered on any of the active cooking elements—is too small, the affected cooking element’s LED bar fluctuates and the pan does not heat.
