This is a low power warming only radiant heat element like the ones in a regular electric cooktop.  It is not an induction element.  See my review.

The LG 6.3 cu. Ft. Smart Induction Slide-in Range with InstaView®, ProBake Convection®, Air Fry, and Air Sous Vide, Model # LSIL6336FE, features four Induction elements and a Radian element (Element # 5).
Induction elements use electromagnetic energy instead of electric heating coils or gas burners to directly heat your cookware—and only your cookware. Induction is about 5-10% more energy-efficient than radiant electric cooktops and about 3 times more efficient than gas.
A radiant element, also known as a ceramic or glass cooktop element, uses radiant heat to cook food. The heating element is located beneath the cooktop's surface and heats up the cookware.
This range oven also features an UltraHeat™4.3kW element (Element # 2), which is an induction element for rapid boiling and true simmering...^Ivan.
