KitchenAid Induction Cooktop

Yes, induction cooktops require cookware with a magnetic base, such as cast iron or magnetic stainless steel. If a magnet sticks firmly to the bottom of your pot or pan, it will work with this cooktop.

The Power Boost function temporarily increases the power level of a cooking zone beyond its standard maximum. It is designed for tasks that require rapid heating, such as bringing a large pot of water to a boil quickly.

The frameless glass surface is designed for easy maintenance. Because the cooktop itself stays relatively cool compared to traditional electric or gas burners, spills are less likely to bake onto the surface, and the touch-activated controls can be locked to prevent accidental activation while wiping.

This feature detects the size of your cookware and adjusts the induction field to match the base of the pan. This ensures energy is directed only where it is needed, improving efficiency and preventing heat loss around the edges of smaller pans.

No, this unit is designed for a specific built-in installation. You must ensure your countertop cutout matches the product dimensions of 36.31 inches wide by 21.31 inches deep to ensure a secure and seamless fit.

The tap-touch controls are designed to be intuitive, but like most electronic touch interfaces, they perform best when the surface is clean and dry. If the controls become wet during cooking, simply wipe them with a dry cloth to restore full responsiveness.
