About Your Solid Element Cartridge

Congratulations on your choice of a Jenn-Air solid element cooktop cartridge. The solid elements are madefrom a cast iron plate intowhich electrical heating coils have been embedded. The coils are arranged to provide a uniform he distribution. The solid elements have a thermal limiter to prevent the eleme_.. from becoming excessively hot (itwill not glow red). The thermal limiter reduces incoming wattage when a cookpot is unable to properly conduct the heat from the solid element'ssurface, such as when an improper cookpot is used.

Cooking Procedures

BEFORE FIRST USE, heat elements without a pan for 3 to 5 minutes on the Hi setting,

• For best results, always use recommended cookware.

""

Different cookpots and different amounts of food being prepared will influence the control settings needed for best results. (See cooktop or range use & care manualfor typical control settings.) Forfastest cooking, start with the surface control on Hi for one minute;then turn the control to the lower desired setting. Covering pans, whenever possible, speeds cooking and is more energy efficient.

The solid elements retain heat for a periodof time after the elements have been turned off. Putthis residual heat to good use. Turn the elements off a few minutes before food iscompletely cooked and use the retained heat

to complete the cooking operation. Because of this heat retention characteristic, the elements will not respond to changes in heat settings as quickly as coil elements. In the event of a potential boil over, move the cookpot to a cool element or remove from the cooking surface.

When preparingfoods which can beeasily scorched or over-cooked,""_rt

cooking at a lower temperature setting and gradually increase temh._.. - ture as needed.

A higher setting than normal may be necessary when using cookpots made with material that is slow to conduct heat, such as cast iron.

A lower setting can be used when cooking small quantities of foods or when using a cookpot that conducts heat quickly.

Once liquid comes to a boil on Hi, reduce the control setting to a medium or medium low to maintain steam or to simmer foods.

Make sure bottom of cookware is dry before placing on element.

Do not use wire trivets, fire rings, pads or any such item between the cookware and the element.

Do not lay lids, spatulas, or other food laden utensils on solid element.
