Home Canning, Cooktop Controls Touch-Activated

Home Canning

When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.

■Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element.

■Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or surface burners at the same time.

■On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.

■For more information, contact your local agricultural department. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance.

Cooktop Controls - Touch-Activated

Custom Control Temperature Management System

WARNING

Fire Hazard

Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to do so can result in death or fire.

The electronic touch controls offer a variety of heat settings for optimal cooking results. When melting foods such as chocolate or butter, or when proofing bread, the surface cooking area can be set to MELT & HOLD for very low temperature operation.

To keep cooked foods warm or to heat serving dishes, the surface cooking area can be set to KEEP WARM.

For maximum element operation, all cooktop touch-activated controls can be set to HI when bringing liquids to a fast and rapid boil. Touch the “-” pad to immediately reach the HI setting.

NOTE: This cooktop automatically adjusts for 208V operation without affecting cooking performance.

To Use:

1.Touch ON/OFF.

2.Touch the “+” or “-” pads to increase or decrease power.

3.To choose a power level between HI and MELT & HOLD, touch and hold either pad until the desired level has been reached.

4.When finished cooking, touch ON/OFF to turn surface cooking area(s) off individually, or touch Control Lock/All Off to turn all elements off at the same time.
