PIC Specs
Cooking AreaThe heating surface is located inside the thicker silver ring. The minimum diameter of acceptable cookware is 3 inches (76mm). Always place cookware in the center of the heating circle. You may use pans measuring up to the total width of the PIC Flex, which measures 10 inches (254mm). However, in these situations, heat will transfer more lowly to the outer edges. Not recommended for pans larger than 10 inches (254mm). There are no open flames or hot coils and the NuWave Precision Induction Cooktop Flex remains cool to the touch where not magnetically activated. The appliance can accommodate up to a 50-pound (22kg) weight load.

Compatible CookwareThree simple ways to check if your existing pots and pans or future cookware purchases are compatible with the NuWave PIC Flex:
- A magnet is typically a great indicator. If it sticks to the bottom of a piece of cookware this typically means the pot or pan is induction-ready. However, be cautioned that there are instances when a cooking vessel’s magnetic properties may not be strong enough for the pot to work efficiently with the PIC Flex.
- Place a small amount of water in a pot or pan. If induction compatible, water will begin to boil.
- An induction-ready symbol may be printed on the bottom of the cookware.
E1 ErrorAn E1 reading typically means that your PIC Flex does not detect cookware on its surface. This can occur for one of two reasons:
- The induction coils contained within the PIC Flex will only work when they are in direct contact with a piece of cookware. To maintain your appliance’s effectiveness, always ensure that it rests on a flat surface and that contact is consistent with your cookware.
- An E1 message may also occur if your chosen cookware is not induction-ready.When an E1 error occurs the PIC will beep every 2 seconds until it detects a pot. If the PIC has not detected a pot after 1 minute, it will shut off automatically. In order to resume cooking, place induction-ready cookware on the PIC’s surface then press Start.
Troubleshoot Guide
E7 Error & Cooking FanAn E7 error is displayed when the PIC becomes overheated. This is typically caused by obstruction of the PIC’s underside Cooling Fan. Always ensure that the PIC Flex is placed on a flat, level surface with the cooling fan unobstructed. Typical interferences include tablecloths, wooden cutting boards, placemats, etc.PIC & PacemakersScientific tests have proven inconclusive as to whether the electrical field will disrupt the function of a pacemaker. Please consult your doctor or medical professional for guidance before use.
