Q.MayIcanf~ds andpreserve onmysoliddiskelements?
A. Ya, butonlyusecontainers
designedfir canningpurposes. Chwkthemanuticturer’sinstructions andrecipesforpreservingfoods. Besurecannerisflat-bottomedand
fitsoverthecenterofthesoliddisk element.Sincecanninggenerates largeamountsofsteam,becarefil toavoidburnsfromsteamorheat.
Q. Whydoesthesotiddisk
elementsmokewhenIfirstturn iton?
A. Thisinitialharmlessnontoxic
smokingisbothnormaland necessary.A rustpreventative isappliedtoeachelementatthe
factory.Whentheunitisturnedon forthe firsttime,thecoatingwill burnofftheelementareas.This takesapproximatelyfiveminutes
andshouldbedonewithoutany panson theelement.Otherwise, thecoatingwillstickto the pan.
Q.Whyisthecooktophotto
thetouch? A. Moreheatistransferredtothe
cwktop bythe soliddiskelements thanbyconventionalcoils because
theelementsareclampedsecurely tothe cooktopsutice. This,of course,eliminatesspilloversfrom gettinginsidethe cooktopchassis. Thesecretto keepingthecooktop comfortablycooler istoturnthe cooktoponody akr thecookware anditscontentiareplacedonthe
element.Moreheatwillthenbe transferredtothecookwareandthe f~ ratherthanthecooktop.In eithercase,however,thecooktop temperaturewillnotcausedamage tothe cabinets,countertopsor cookware.
Q. WhyamIovercookingmy food?
A. Thesoliddiskelementsare

Q. CanI uses-d coo-

A. Cookwarewithoutflatsutic

Q. Whydoesittakealong time tocookmyfood?
A. Theextratimeittakescompared
