Suitable Cookware; For Best Results - GE PHP900 Manuel D'utilisation

Use flat-bottomed pans.
Use a griddle.
Use a flat-bottomed wok.
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.

Suitable Cookware

Use quality cookware with heavier
bottoms for better heat distribution
and even cooking results. Choose
cookware made of magnetic stainless
steel, enamel coated cast iron,
enameled steel and combinations
of these materials.
Some cookware is specifically
identified by the manufacturer for use
with induction cooktops. Use a magnet
to test if the cookware will work.
Flat-bottomed pans give best results.
Pans with rims or slight ridges can be
used.
Round pans give best results. Pans
with warped or curved bottoms will
not heat evenly.
For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed
wok. Do not use a wok with a support
ring.

For Best Results

Do not place wet pans or lids on the
cooking surface or induction rings.
Do not place wet fingers on the glass
cooktop. Wipe up spills on the controls
with dry hands.
Do not use woks with support rings. This
type of wok will not heat on an induction
element.
Cookware "noise"
Slight sounds may be produced by
different types of cookware. Heavier
pans such as enameled cast iron
produce less noise than a lighter
weight multi-ply stainless steel pan.
The size of the pan, and the amount
of contents, can also contribute to
the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are
set at certain power level settings,
magnetic fields may interact and
produce a low whistle or intermitted
"hum". These noises can be reduced or
eliminated by lowering or raising the
power level settings of one or both of
the elements. Pans that completely
cover the element ring will produce less
noise.
A low "humming" noise is normal
particularly on high settings.
Use only a flat-bottomed wok, available
from many cookware manufacturers.
The bottom of the wok should match the
diameter of the induction ring to insure
proper contact.
Some special cooking procedures
require specific cookware such as
pressure cookers, deep-fat fryers, etc.
Cookware with flat bottoms that match
the size of the surface element being
used will produce the best results.
