BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

ESEC error indicator message (Er)

An error message will be displayed (glowing "Er") at power up (or after a power failure) if ANY of the surface control knobs were left in the ON positions (See Figure 7). If a power failure should occur, be sure to set all of the surface control knobs to the OFF position. This will reset the surface controls.

Once the surface controls have been set to the OFF posi- tions, the surface controls should return to normal opera- tion. If the surface controls do not function and the "Er" message remains in any display after following these proce- dures, contact your authorized servicer for assistance.

Cooktop Sabbath Day Feature and (Sb) Message

The ESEC will display the Sb messages whenever the Sabbath Day feature is active. When activated, the Sabbath Day feature works for both the oven and cooktop together. Once the Sabbath Day feature is active, changes to the heat levels for the cooktop elements will not show in the displays. The cooktop will react slower to heat level changes. To set the Sabbath Day feature, refer to “Setting the Sabbath Feature (For use on the Jewish Sabbath and Holidays)” on page 38.

Home Canning

Cooktop Sabbath Day Feature and (Sb) Message CAUTION

Canning can generate large amounts of steam. Use extreme caution to prevent burns. Always raise the lid to vent steam away from you. Safe canning requires that harmful micro-organisms are destroyed and the jars are sealed completely. When canning in a water bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained continuously for the required time.

Be sure to read and observe all the following points when home canning with your appliance. Check with the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Web site and be sure to read all the information they have available as well as follow their recommendations for home canning proce- dures.

•Use only quality flat bottom canners when home canning. Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom.

•Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no ridges that radiate from the bottom center when home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when the bottom surface is flat.

•Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner. It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops and to center canners on the burner grates.

•Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil more quickly.

•Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil.

•Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars for the latest canning information.

•It is best to can small amounts and light loads.

•Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on high heat for an extended amount of time.

•Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.
