l The pan materlal (metal or glass) affects how fast heat transfers from the surface unit through the pan material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.

l Handles should be made of sturdy, heat-resistant material and be securely attached to the pan.

NOTES:

lIf a surface unit stays red for a long time, the bottom of the pan is not flat enough or is too small for the surface unit. Prolonged usage of incorrect utensils could result in damage to the surface unit, cooktop, wiring, and surrounding areas. To prevent damage, use correct utensils, start cooking on HI, and turn control down to continue cooking.

l Do not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The utensil could overheat and damage the utensil or surface unit.

Home canning information

To protect your range:

. Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results.

l Use the largest surface unit for best results. Also, use a canner/pan which can be centered over the surface unit and which does not extend more than one inch outside surface unit area. Large diameter canners/pans, if not properly centered, trap heat and can cause damage to the cooktop.

l Do not place canner on two surface units at the same time. Too much heat will build up and will damage the cooktop.

l Start with hot water. This reduces the time the control is set on high. Reduce heat setting to lowest position needed to keep water boiling.

l Keep reflector bowls clean for best heat reflection.

l To prolong the life of the elements:

-Prepare small batches at a time.

-Do not use elements for canning all day.

l Refer to your canner manual for specific instructions.

Optional canning kit

The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure canners combined with high heat settings for long periods of time can shorten the life of regular surface units and cause damage to the cooktop.

If you plan to use the cooktop for canning, we recommend the installation of a Canning Kit. Order the kii (Part No. 242905) from your Whirlpool dealer or authorized Whirlpool service company.
