cooking area. Large diameter canners/pans, if not centered correctly, trap heat and can cause damage to the cooktop.

Do not place your canner on two surface cooking areas at the same time.

The type of material the canner is made of deter- mines the length of heating time. Refer to the “Characteristics of cookware materials” chart later in this section for more information.

When canning for long periods of time, allow elements and the surrounding surfaces to cool down.

Alternate use of the surface cooking areas between batches or prepare small batches at a time.

Start with hot water, cover with a lid, and bring to a boil; then reduce heat to maintain a boil or required pressure levels in a pressure canner.

On coil element model, keep your reflector bowls clean so that they will always reflect heat well.

For up-to-date information on canning, contact your local U.S. Government Agricultural Depart- ment Extension Office or companies who manufacture home canning products.

Optional canning kit

(Coil element model)

Most water-bath or pressure canners have large diameters. If you do canning with them at high heat settings for long periods of time, you can shorten the life of regular coil elements. This can also damage the cooktop. If you plan to use the cook- top for canning, we recommend the installation of a Canning Kit. Order the kit (Part No. 242905) from your dealer or authorized service company.

These models are designed to meet the needs of modern households while incorporating advanced technologies that ensure food preservation, energy efficiency, and convenience.

One of the main features of these refrigerators is their spacious interior. They offer ample storage space with adjustable shelves that can accommodate various sizes of food items and containers. The door bins are designed to hold taller bottles and cans, providing additional flexibility in organizing your groceries. In addition to the impressive capacity, an interior LED lighting system brightens every corner, making it easy to find your favorite snacks and ingredients even in low-light conditions.

The Whirlpool RF series incorporates advanced cooling technologies to maintain optimal temperature settings throughout the refrigerator and freezer sections. With the Adaptive Defrost feature, these models monitor when the freezer is in use and defrost only when necessary. This not only saves energy but also helps in maintaining the quality of frozen foods. The Accu-Chill Temperature Management System quickly cools the refrigerator after grocery shopping, ensuring that food stays fresh longer.

Another highlight is the Water and Ice Dispenser, which provides filtered water and cubed or crushed ice on demand. This feature is especially convenient for families who enjoy chilled beverages. The in-door ice storage frees up freezer space, allowing for more room for frozen items. Furthermore, a filtration system ensures that the water is clean and free from contaminants.

The sleek exterior design of these Whirlpool models complements any kitchen decor. The stainless steel finish is not only modern but also resistant to smudges and fingerprints, making maintenance easier. The integrated controls are user-friendly, providing easy access to temperature adjustments and settings.

Energy efficiency is a critical consideration for modern appliances, and these refrigerators meet ENERGY STAR standards. This ensures that they consume less electricity without compromising on performance, making them an environmentally friendly choice for consumers.
