KitchenAid Induction Cooktop Not Heating Evenly: Safe Checks
Uneven heating on a KitchenAid induction cooktop often comes from the cookware rather than the glass surface: a warped or dented base, a pan with only part of its bottom made from magnetic material, a base that does not match the cooking area, or a pan that is not centered. If several zones are being used, a paired zone or Performance Boost setting can also reduce the power available on one area on some models.

Confirm the new-apartment installation is stable, ventilated, grounded, and on the required separate circuit; verify the glass tray and roller ring; then use one supervised microwave-safe cup-of-water test at the intended high setting.
