Cookware tips

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

l NOTE: For best results and greater energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed utensils that make good contact with the surface units. Utensils with rounded, warped, ridged (such as some porcelain enamel-ware) or dented bottoms could cause severe overheating of coil elements, which damages the utensil and/or surface unit.

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

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

l Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick- ness) pans that are fairly light-weight.

l 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.

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

Ceramic cooktop module:

l With your hand, feel the bottom of your pans while they are cool for nicks and scratches. Nicks and scratches on pan bottoms will scratch the ceramic glass cooktop.

lMake sure bottoms of pans are clean and dry before using on cooktop.

l Avoid spillovers on cooktop. Use pans with tall sides.

lDo not cook food directly on cooktop.

Product Damage Hazard

DOn coil elements, if 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 can 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.

BDo not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The utensil can overheat and may damage the utensil or surface unit.

klome canning information

Solid and coil elements: The large diam- e:er of most water-bath or pressure canners c lmbined with high heat settings for long periods of time can shorten the life of regular s Jr-face units and cause damage to the

c ,oktop.

If you plan to use the coil element cooktop for canning, we recommend the installation 0’ a Canning Kit. Order the kit (Part No.

2 12905) from your Whirlpool dealer or authorized WhirlpooFM service company.

To protect your cooktop:

l Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results. Some canners have ribbed bottoms (porcelain enamel-ware) and are not recommended for solid elements. They do not make good contact with the surface unit, causing the limiter to reduce the heat level. This interferes with the canning process.
