Cookware tips

l Select a pan that is about the same size as the surface unit.

l NOTE: For best results and greater energy efficiency, use only flat-bottomed cookware that makes good contact with the surface units. Cookware with rounded, warped, ribbed (such as some porcelain enamelware) or dented bottoms could cause severe overheating, which damages the cookware and/or surface unit.

You can, however, use newer cookware with slightly indented bottoms or very small expansion channels. This cookware is specially designed to provide the good contact needed for best cooking results.

Also, woks, canners and teakettles with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are now available in most stores that sell housewares.

l The pan should have straight sides and a tight-fitting lid.

l Choose medium to heavy gauge (thick- ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.

l The pan material (metal or glass) affects how fast heat transfers from the surface unit through the pan material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.

l If a surface unit stays red for a long time the bottom of the pan is not flat enough or is too small for the surface unit. Prolonged usage of incorrect utensils for long periods of time could result in damage to the surface unit, cooktop, wiring and surrounding areas. To

Iprevent damage, use correct utensils, start cooking on HI and turn control down to continue cooking.

l Do not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The utensil could overheat and could damage the utensil or surface unit

Home canning information

To protect your range:

l Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results.

l Use the largest surface unit for best results. Also, use a canner/pan which can be centered over the surface unit and which does not extend more than one inch outside surface unit area. Large diameter canners/pans, if not properly centered, trap heat and can cause damage to the cooktop.

l Do not place canner on two surface units at the same time. Too much heat will build up and will damage the cooktop.

l Start with hot water. This reduces the time the control is set on high. Reduce heat setting to lowest position needed to keep water boiling.

l Keep reflector bowls clean for best heat reflection.

l To prolong the life of the elements:

-Prepare small batches at a time.

-Do not use elements for canning all day.
