As indicated in its header, the LG - 6.3 Cu. Ft. Slide-In Electric Induction True Convection Range with InstaView and Flex Control Knobs - Stainless Steel, Model # LSIL6336XE, is an induction range oven. A griddle can be used on an induction cooktop, but it must be made from induction-compatible materials and sit flush against the cooktop surface. : For a griddle to work on an induction cooktop, it must be made from ferromagnetic materials such as cast iron, carbon steel, or stainless steel. These materials are capable of interacting with the magnetic field generated by the induction cooktop, allowing for efficient heating. The griddle must sit completely flat against the induction cooktop. If there are any gaps between the griddle and the cooktop, the induction cooktop will not be able to generate heat. This is crucial because induction cooking relies on direct contact between the cookware and the cooktop surface to function properly. The cooktop on this range oven is equipped with four induction cooking elements of different sizes and a radiant heat warming zone An 8", 2100 W / 3200 W (240 V) Induction Left Front Cooking Element, an 11", 2400 W / 4300 W (240 V) Induction Right Front Cooking Element, a 6", 1300 W / 1800 W (240 V) Induction Left Rear Cooking Element, a 6", 1300 W / 1800 W (240 V) Induction Center Rear Cooking Element, and a 6", 100W (240 V) Radiant Heat Warm Zone. A sensor automatically detects and adapts the induction cooking element to the pan size in use for more consistent, even cooking. Cookware must be centered correctly on the surface of the cooking element, the pan size must meet or exceed the recommended minimum size for the cooking element, and it must rest completely on the cooktop surface. Your 19.5 x 10" cast iron griddle exceeds the maximum diameter of the pan bottom for any of the induction cooktop elements so it cannot be used on the induction cooktop elements...^Ivan.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Because this range lacks a bridge feature, even a preheated induction-friendly cast-iron griddle like my Staub La Plancha cannot effectively spread the heat across the gap between the LG’s induction burners. So you must adjust to only cooking on the two circular portions of your griddle that sit directly over the burners. The lack of a bridge is the only drawback to this otherwise fine stove.
