USING YOUR RANGE

USING THE SURFACE BURNERS (CONT.)

In case of a prolonged power failure

You can manually light surface burners. Hold a lit match near a burner and turn the control knob to the LIGHT position. After the burner lights, turn the control knob to the setting you want.

Home canning information

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

To protect your range:

•For best results, use a canner which can be centered over the surface burner.

•Do not place your canner on 2 surface burners at the same time. Too much heat will build up and damage the cooktop.

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

•Refer to your canner manual for specific instructions.

Using the right cookware makes a big difference

•The pan should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well-fitting lid.

•Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick- ness) cookware.

•The pan material (metal or glass) affects how quickly and evenly the pan heats.

•When using glass or ceramic cookware, check to make sure it is suitable for use on surface burners.

•To avoid tipping, make sure pots and pans are centered on the grates.
