Home Canning Information

To Protect Your Range:

1. Use flat-bottomed canners for best results. Do not use canners with dented

or ridged (porcelain enamel-ware] bottoms. They do not make good contact with the surface unit and cause severe over-heating which damages the cooktop.

2.For best results, use a canner which can be centered over the surface unit. Large diameter canners, if not properly centered, trap heat and can cause damage to the cooktop.

3.Do not place canner on two surface units at the same time. Excessive heat build-up will damage the cooktop.

4.Alternate surface units. This allows the surface units to cool down between batches.

5.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.

6.Keep reflector bowls clean for best heat reflection.

7.To prolong the life of the elements:

l Prepare small batches at a time.

l Do not use elements for canning all day.

Optional Canning Kit (Part NO. 242905)

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 kit from your Whirlpool dealer or authorized WhirlpoolSM service company.
