Using the cooktop. How Induction Surface Cooking Works Induction coils under the glass cooking surface produce a magnetic field that generates heat in ferrous metals that are in close proximity. The glass cooking surface is not heated directly since it is not a ferrous metal, but the glass may eventually become hot from the pan. Induction surface coils are more efficient and will heat much faster than conventional electric and gas cooking surface cooking products. CAUTION : • T he induction cooking elements may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur. • D O NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly with hands. Always use mitts or pot holders to protect hands from burns. • D O NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop. 49-80564-1 08-10 GE
