Cookware tips

Select a pan that is about the same size as the surface unit.

NOTE: For best results and greater energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed cookware that makes good contact with the surface units. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain enamelware), or dented bottoms could cause severe overheating, which damages the cookware and/or surface unit.

You can, however, use the newer cookware available with slightly indented bottoms or very small expansion channels. This cookware is specially designed to provide the good contact needed for best cooking results.

Also, woks, canners, and teakettles with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are now available in most stores that sell housewares.

The pan should have straight sides and a tight-fitting lid.

Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick- ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.

The pan material (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.

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

NOTES:

Use the correct cookware to prevent damage to the surface unit, cooktop, wiring and surrounding areas.

If the cookware is too small for the surface unit or the bottom is not flat, the surface unit could stay glowing red for an extended length of time causing damage to the unit.

If you start cooking on high, it is impor- tant to turn the control down to a lower setting to complete cooking.

The surface unit could overheat or be damaged if a pot has boiled dry or has been left empty on a hot surface unit.

Home canning information

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.

To protect your range:

Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results.

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.

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