Product Damage Hazard

Do not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface

The utensil could overheat and could damage the utensil or surface unit.

Home canning information

The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure canners combined with high heat settings for long periods of time can shorten the life of surface units and cause damage to the cooktop.

To protect your range:

l Use flat-bottomed canners/pans for best results. Some canners have ribbed bottoms (porcelain enamelware) and are not recom- mended. They do not make good contact with the surface unit, causing the limiter to reduce the heat level. This interferes with the canning process.

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.

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

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.

To prolong the life of the elements:

-Prepare small batches at a time.

-Do not use elements for canning all day.

Energy saving tips

Although the energy used for cooking is usually a very small percentage of the total energy used in the home, cooking energy can be used efficiently. Here are some tips to help you save energy when using your cooking product:

l Use pans with flat bottoms, straight sides and tight-fitting lids.

l Match the pan to the surface unit size. l Cook with a minimum of liquid or fat to

help shorten cooking time.

l Preheat pans only when recommended and for the shortest time possible.

Start food on higher heat settings, then set surface unit controfon low or off to finish cooking. Use retained heat for cooking when possible.

Turn on the surface unit only after placing filled pan on the unit.

Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the cooktop.
