How It Works
Heats by direct contact with the pan and by heating the air under the pan. For best
cooking results, use goodquality pans. Electric coils are more forgiving of
warped pans than radiant or solid disks. Heats up quickly but does not change
heat settings as quickly as gas or induction. Electric coils stay hot enough to
continue cooking for ashort tilmeafter they are turned off.
Heat travels to the glass surface and then to the cookware, so pans must be [l~ton
the bottom for good cooking results. The glass cooktop stays hot enough to
continue cooking after it is turned off. Remove the pan from the su&Jce unit i!“
you want cooking to stop.
Pans must be made of ferrous metals (metal that attracts arn~gnet).Heat is
produced by amagnetic circuit between the coil and the pan. Heats up right away
and changes heat settings right away, like agas cooktop. After turning the cotltrol
off,the glass cooktop is hot from the heat of’the pan, but cooking stop~right away.
Heats by direct contact with the pan, so pans must be flat on the bottom forgOCI“
cooking results. Heats up and cools down more slowly than electric coils. The
disk stays hot enough to continue cooking after it is turned oft’.Retnove the pan
from the solid disk if Youwant the cookinz to ston.
Flames heat the pans directly. Pan ilatncss is not critical to cooking result~.but
pans should be well balanced. Gas burners heat the pan right away and chtingc
heat settings right away. When you turn the control off, cooking stops right away.

SURFACECOOKWARE TIPS
Cookware
Use medium-or heavy-weightcookware. Aluminum Right
cookware conductsheat faster than other metals.
it-ironand coated cast-iron cookware are slow to
sorb heat, but generallycook evenly at low to
mediumheat settings.Steel pans may cook unevenly
if not combined with other metals.
For best cookingresultspans shouldbe flat on the
bottom. Match the sizeof the saucepan to the sizeof
the surface unit.The pan shouldnot extend over the
edge of the surfaceunit more than 2.5 cm (1inch).
Wrong
OVER 2.5 CM (l”)
DeepFatFrying
Do not overfillcookware with fat that may spillover when adding food.
Frosty foodsbubble vigorously.Watchfood frying at high temperatures.
Keep range and hood clean from grease.
WokCooking

the ring over the surface
unit will cause abuild-upof
heat that will damage th~porcelain cooktop.Do not
try to use such woks without the ring. Youcould be
seriouslyburned if the wok tipped over. 7
HOME CANNINGTWS
Canning should be done on surface units only.
In surface cooking, the use of potsextending more
than one inchbeyond the edge of the surface unit’s
drip pan is not recommended. However, when
canning with awater-bathor pressure canner, large-
diameter pots may be used. This is because boiling
water temperatl!res(even under pressure) are not
harmful to the cooktop surfaces surroundingthe
surface units.
HOWEVER, DO NOT USE LARGE-DIAMETER
CANNERS OR OTHER LARGE-DIAMETER POTS
FOR FRYING OR BOILING FOODS OTHER
THAN WATER.Most syrup or sauce mixlures-
and all types of frying—cook at temperatures much
higher [banboiling water. Such temperatures co(ild
eventually harm the cooktop surfaces surroundingthe
surface units.
ObservetheFollowingPointsin Canning
1. Be sure the canner fits over the center of the
surfaceunit. If your range or its location doe! not
allow the canner to be centered on the surface unit,
use smaller-diameter~ntsfor good canning results.
2. Flat-bottomedcanners must be used. Do not use
canners with flanged or rippled bottoms (often
found in enamelware) because they don’t make
enough contact with the surface unit and take too
long to boil water.
Flat-bottomed canners are recommended.
3. When canning, use recipes and procedures from
reputable sources. Reliablerecipes and procedures
are available from the manufacturerof your canner;
manufacturers of glassJars for cdnning, such as
Balland Kerr; and the United States Department of
Agriculture Extension Service.
4. Remember that canning is aprocess that generates
largeamountsof steam. To avoid burns from steam
or heat, be careful when canning.
NOTE: If your househas low voltage,canning may
take longerthan expected. even though directions
have been carefully followed. The process time will
be shortenedby:
(1) using apressure canner, and
(2) startingwith HOT tap water for fastest heating of
largequantitiesof water.

Toset the minute timer,turn the center knob
counterclockwise, withoutpushing in, until the
pointer reaches the number of minutesyou wish to
