Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small
expansion channels can be used.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits
when heated.
To avoid damage to the cooktop, do not cook foods directly
on the cooktop.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking area
or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend
more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or
element.
Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or
surface burners at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit
Kit is recommended. If a kit is not installed, the life of the coil
element will be shortened. See "Assistance or Service" for
instructions on how to order.
For more information, contact your local agricultural
department. Companies that manufacture home canning
products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a
well-fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used
as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or
grates.
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning
products.
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless
otherwise noted. When cleaning the cooktop with electronic
controls, lock the controls. See "Control Lock" section.
Do not use a steam cleaner.
STAINLESS STEEL (on some models)
To avoid damage to stainless steel surfaces, do not use soapfilled
scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Cleaner, steelwool
pads, gritty washcloths or abrasive paper towels.
Cleaning Method:
Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.
Affresh
Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish (Part Number
®
W10355016B) (not included):
See "Assistance or Service" section to order.
All-purpose cleaner: Rinse with clean water and dry with soft,
lint-free cloth.
Vinegar for hard water spots.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has the
same characteristics as its base material.
For example, aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take
on the properties of aluminum.
