BEFORE SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Cookware Material Types
The cookware material determines how evenly and quickly
heat is transferred from the surface burner to the pan
bottom. The most popular materials available are:
• Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some types of
food will cause it to darken (Anodized aluminum
cookware resists staining and pitting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors easily
(See Aluminum).
• Stainless - Slow heat conductor with uneven cooking
results. Is durable, easy to clean and resists staining.
•Cast Iron - A slow heat conductor that retains heat very
well. Cooks evenly once cooking temperature is
reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating characteristics
will vary depending on base material.
•Glass - Slow heat conductor.
Gas surface burner types
The cooktop is equipped with gas surface burners with
different BTU ratings. The ability to heat food quickly and in
large amounts increases as the burner size increases.
• Small burners are best used for low-flame heating of
small amounts of food.
• Standard burners can be used for most surface cooking
needs.
• The largest burner is best used for bringing large quan-
tities of liquid rapidly up to temperature or when
preparing larger quantities of food. The large burner is
located at the right front position on the cooktop.
Regardless of size, always select cookware that is suitable
for the amount and type of food being prepared. Select a
burner and set the flame size appropriately for the pan.
Never allow flames to extend beyond the outer edge of the
pan.
Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt and
pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic wrappings on
the cooktop when it is in use. These items could melt or
ignite. Potholders, towels or wooden spoons could catch
fire if placed too close to the range cooktop.
Do not place aluminum foil, or ANY material that can melt
on the range cooktop. If these items melt they may
damage the cooktop.
Do not straddle cookware over two burner areas unless
the cookware is specifically designed for that purpose.
