Use pans and woks that are flat on
the bottom. The size of the pan
should be the same size as the zone
used when cooking.
If you don't (j
know if your _ }
cookware is
flat on the
bottom, try this test, Turn your pan
upside down on the countertop and
place the edge of a ruler flat against
the surface of the pan. Rotate the
ruler a full circle, checking as you turn
for any space between the two
surfaces. The bottom of the pan and
the edge of the ruler should fit flush
against each other all the way across.
Sta_nlless SteeH: Highly
recommended for use with your new
cooktop. Especially good with a
sandwich clad bottom.
Aguminum: Heavyweight aluminum
cookware recommended,
Cast llron: Cast iron cookware that
is completely covered with porcelain
enamel is recommended, Cast iron
that is not covered with porcelain
enamel may scratch the glass

OPERATION
Radiant CooktopCooking
When the knobs are turned on, coils
beneath the glass radiate heat
through the glass to the cooking
utensil, it will take a few minutes for
the coils to heat; as they do, a red
glow can be seen on the surface of
the cooktop.

desired heat. /___
The surface udit indicator light will
glow when any cooking zone is
activated.
It is normal to see the elements glow
red and then dark while cooking at
settings below high. This cycling on
and off is used to maintain your
selected control setting, Cycling when
the selector is set on Hi is due to poor
transfer of heat to cookware that is not
flat. The Temperature Limiters of the
cooking zones provide a protection
for your new cooktop. The Limiters will
turn the radiant coils on and off while
cooking or canning. This procedure
helps maintain an even cooking
temperature without allowing the
cooking zones to overheat.

help eliminate this odor, ventilate
the room by open_ng awindow
or using avent hood.
PMPORTANT: Never cover the oven
bottom or oven rack with aluminum
foil. Improper use can cause poor
heat flow, poor baking results, and
may damage the oven finish. To
prevent staining from spillovers, you
may place a piece of aluminum foil or

Opening the door often to check
foods will cause heat loss and poor
baking results.
Most recipes for baking have been
developed using high-fat products
such as butter or margarine (80% fat
by weight - the federal requirement
for products labeled "margarine"),
You will get poor results if cakes, pies,
pastries, cookies or candies are made
with low-fat spreads. Low-fat spreads
contain less fat and more water. The
high moisture content of these
spreads affects the texture and flavor
of favorite baked recipes. The lower
the fat content of a spread product,

the more noticeable these differences
become. To ensure best results, use
margarine, butter or stick spreads
containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
The Oven Temperature Sensor at the
back of the oven continuously senses
and controls the temperature inside the
oven. To keep a constant set
temperature, the elements will cycle or
turn on and off during cooking.
If baking with more than one pan, place
the pans so each has at least t to 1 1/2"
of air space around it. Place pans so
one is not directly above the other.

when using these pans, should be
reduced by 25°F.
The oven racks are designed with stop
locks, a convenience as well as a safety
precaution. The guides have a bump to
prevent the racks from tilting when

Broiling is cooking by direct heat
from the upper element. The oven
door should remain open to the broil
stop position during broiling.
The closer you place foods to the
broi! element the faster foods brown
on the outside yet remain red to pink
in the center.
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the
center while browning on the outside.
Cook side 1 at least 2 minutes longer
than side 2. If your oven is connected
to 208 volts, you may want to use a
higher rack position and/or broil
foods longer.
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature and your preference of
the doneness of the meat will affect
broiling. This chart is based on meats
at refrigerator temperature,
tt is not necessary to preheat the
oven when broiling. Use the broiler
pan and grid that came with your
range. Both are designed for proper
drainage of fat and liquids.

The U,S. Department of Agriculture
recommends to cook meat and
poultry thoroughly---meat to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 160° F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180 ° F. Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects
against food-borne illness. 18

a 5-6" gap at the bottom of the door.
This allows for proper air circulation.
