BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS

Cookware material types

The most popular materials available are:

Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting).

Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.

Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.

Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor however will retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is reached.

Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics will vary depending on base material.

Glass - Slow heat conductor.

Set proper burner flame size

The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment. A good flame is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted room. Each cone of flame should be steady and sharp. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-orange.

For most cooking; start on the highest setting and then turn to a lower setting to complete the process. Use the recommendations below as a guide for determining proper flame size for various types of cooking (Fig. 2)

For deep fat frying; use a thermometer and adjust the surface knob accordingly. If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy. If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be undercooked. Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food will neither brown or cook properly.

Use quality cookware in good condition

For the best possible

 

cooking results when using

 

the cooktop, always use

 

quality cookware in good

 

condition. Pans should

 

have flat bottoms that sit

 

level on the burner grate.

 

Before using cookware,

 

check for flatness by

 

rotating a ruler across the

 

bottom of the cookware

Fig. 1

(Fig. 1).

CAUTION

Do not place flammable items such as plastic wrappings, spoon holders or plastic salt and pepper shakers on the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.

Flame size*

Type of cooking

 

 

High flame

Start most foods; bring water to a boil;

 

pan broiling.

 

 

Medium flame

Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces,

 

gravies; steaming.

 

 

Low flame

Keep foods cooking; poach; stewing.

*These settings are based for medium-weight metal or aluminum pans with lids. Settings may vary when using

other types of pans.

Fig. 2

CAUTION

Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of the cooking utensil. A higher flame wastes energy, and increases your risk of being burned by the flame.

IMPORTANT

Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may damage the cooktop.

NOTE

The size and type of utensil used, the amount and type of food being cooked will influence the settings needed to obtain the best cooking results.
