Solid element surface units

Before using a solid element surface unit for the first time, heat on HI setting for five minutes. The surface units will give off smoke as the protective coating, applied at the factory, finishes bonding to the surface.

Solid element surface units are made of heavy cast-iron to provide even cooking. Each surface unit has a built-in protective limiter as a safety feature.

The limiter senses uneven cooking temperatures and automatically reduces the heat level. The limiter will sense uneven heat when a pan boils dry or when a pan is removed and the surface unit is left on. The heat level may also be

reduced automatically if the bottom of the pan is not flat or if the pan is too large or too small for the element. This will result in longer cooking times.

Solid elements hold heat longer than conventional surface units. For best cooking results, use a high setting for only a shot-l period of time. Then use a lower setting to complete the cooking. You may want to turn the solid element surface unit OFF a few minutes before you finish cooking.

Cookware

Pans should be the same size or larger than the surface unit to prevent boilovers and hot handles.

Use only flat-bottomed utensils. Flat bottoms allow maximum contact between the pans and surface units for fast, even cooking. Pans with uneven bottoms or with raised patterns on the bottoms are not suitable. Do not use trivets, woks with skirts, or canners with concave or ridged bottoms.

To check your cookware for flatness, place a straight-edge across the bottom of each piece. Rotate the straight-edge across the bottom. If light shows any- where between the pan and the straight-edge, the pan is not flat. Do not use it.
