PROPER COOKWARE

Do not use unusually large or warped utensils such as canners and stock pots on HI heat for an extended period of time. This may cause heat build up which can result in damage to the cooktop or the surrounding countertop. Once food has reached temperature, turn the control setting down to maintain the cooking heat.

Use canners and stock pots that have a flat bottom and extend no more than 2 inches beyond the burner grate.

Canning Tips:

An oversize canning pot can be used on the gas burners with success following these suggestions:

•Use a canner with a dark or dull finish to reduce heat reflecting back to the cooktop surface.

•Select a canner with a flat bottom, rather than one with a concave, convex or rippled bottom.

•Allow at least 3/8 inch of air space between the canner overhang and the cooktop surface.

•Use the lowest heat setting possible to maintain a boil or pressure.

•Be sure to cover all containers.

•Follow the canning instructions given in a standard cookbook or manufacturer’s instructions provided with the canning jars.

•Use care to prevent burns from the large amount of steam generated by the canning process.

Look for canners fitting this description:

•Water Bath Canner: Standard 21 to 22-quart canners with an 11 to 12-inch diameter and a 9 to 11-inch depth.

•Pressure Canner: Canners vary in size from 8 to 22 quarts with 8 to 11-inch bottom diameters and a 6-1/2 to 12-inch depth.

Large or Warped Utensils

Woks and Speciality Pans

Use only a flat bottom wok on electric heating elements. A round bottom wok can be used on the burners with a support ring. The round bottom wok is unstable without the ring. Check that the ring does not restrict air to the burners causing a yellow flame. See Custom Accessories AWOKRING below.

Specialty pans such as woks, lobster pots, pressure cookers, griddles, French fryers, etc. must meet similar design requirements as regular cookware: flat bottom, balanced, correct size, and proper cover (if applicable).

Custom Accessories

Thermador® offers several accessories for use on dual or gas burner cooktops.

AWOKRING - a ring designed to hold a round bottom wok. It is custom fitted to the shape of the grate.

GG1 - a cast aluminum griddle with a non-stick finish that spans two burners. It is custom fitted to the grates.

AEGRIDDLE - an anodized aluminum griddle that spans two glass ceramic electric elements.
