Operation Section 3
SIZE OF PAN
• MINIMUM SIZE: The bottom of pan must
have a minimum diameter of 12cm [5”] (be-
low, dotted lines). Otherwise, the pan will not
be heated. This is a safety feature such that the
unit do not detect and heat up small metal
objects, such as jewelery. NOTE: For personal
safety, never place any small metallic objects
on a cook zone.
• DO NOT USE OVERSIZED PAN! The bottom
of the pan must fit the glass. When a hot,
oversized pan covers the silicone seal under-
neath, the heat from the pan may dry out the
silicone overtime. When the silicone seal drys
out and breaks, liquid can penetrate into the
appliance and damage the electronics.
• PAN MUST FIT THE GLASS! The best pan to
use is the one with a bottom that fits the coil
(below, dotted lines).
Placing Pan On A Cook Zone
Each cook zone of our appliances is equipped
with the latest RTCS® or RTCSmp® sensors. These
sensors monitor temperature and cookware con-
tinuously in realtime.
To obtain optimal results from the sensors, you
must always place pan in the center of the
cook zone. Otherwise, the bottom of the pan is
heated unequally and the food inside the pan
may burn.
