IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of California to publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
The fiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

RADIANTSURFACEUNITS
Use proper pan size--select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit
heating element. Theuse of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the surface unit to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will also improve efficiency.
Never leave the surface units unattended at high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and _easy spillovers that may catch on fire.
_ Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic,
earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of the sudden change in
temperature.
@To minimize the possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range
without extending over nearby surface units. Ahvays turn the surface units off before
removing cookware.
@When preparing flaming foods under the
hood, turn the fan on.
@ Use care when touching the cooktop. The
glass surface of the cookmp _411retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
@ Keep an eye on foods being flied at high or
medium high heat settings.
N Foods tor fiTing should be as &T as
possible. Frost on fiozen toods or moisture on fi-esh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan.
N Use little fat tor effective shallow or deep
fat flying. Filling the pan too fldl of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
@ ff a combination of oils or fats will be used
in flying, stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.
@ Ahvays heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. @ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
Do not operate the radiant sur[ace units if the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning solution may penetrate a broken cooktop
and create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately
should your glass cooktop become broken.
N Never use the glass cooktop surface as a
cutting board.
@ Do not place or store items that can melt or
catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used.
N Be carefld when placing spoons or other
stirring utensils on glass cooktop surface
when it is in use. They may become hot and
could cause burns.
@ Clean the cooktop with caution. Ifa wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot sm{hce unit, be carefifl m avoid steam
burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fimms if applied m a hot surface. NOTE: We recommend thatyou avoid
wiping aW surface unit areas until they have cooled and the indicator light has
gone off. Sugar spills are the exception to this. Please see the Cleaning the glass
cooktop section.
N When the cooktop is cool, use only the
recommended cleaning cream to clean the cooktop.
@ To aw)id possible damage to the cooking
surface, do not apply cleaning cream to the glass surface when it is hot.
@Alter cleaning, use a &Y cloth or paper
towel to remove all cleaning cream residue.
N Read and follow all instructions and
warnings on the cleaning cream labels.
N Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The
cooktop can be scratched with items such as sharp instruments, rings or other
4
jewelry, and rivets on clothing.

Selectingtypesof cookware.
The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on glass cooktops.
Check pans for flat bottoms by using a straight edge.
Stainless Steel:
recommended
Aluminum:
heavyweight recommended
Good conductMty. Aluminum residues sometimes appear as scratches on the cooktop, but can be removed if cleaned
immediately. Because of its low melting point, thin weight aluminum should not
be used.
CopperBottom:
recommended
Copper may leave residues which can appem" as scratches. The residues can be
removed, as long as the cooktop is
cleaned immediamly. However, do not let these pots boil d U. Overheated metal can
bond to glass cookmps. An overheated copper bottom pot will leave a residue
that will permanently stain the cooktop
if not removed immediately.
Glass-ceramic:
usable,butnotrecommended
Poor perfbmlance. May scratch the surfhce.
Stoneware:
usable,butnotrecommended
Poor peffommnce. May scratch dm surthce.
Home Canning Tips:
Be sure the canner is centered over the suriace unit.
Make sure the canner is flat on tim bottom.
Use recipes and procedures ii'om reputable sources. These are available
ii'om manuiacmrers such as Ball®and Ken and the DeparUnent of Agriculture
Exmnsion Service.
To prevent bums from steam or heat, use caution when canning.
Pans with rounded, curved, ridged or warped bottoms are not
recommended.
Use only fiat-bottomed woks.
Porcelain EnamelCoveredCastIron:
recommended
As long as the cookware is covered
completely _4th porcelain enamel, this cookware is recommended. Caution is
recommended for cast iron cookware
that is not complemly covered _4th smooth porcelain enamel, as it may
scratch the glass ceramic cookmp.
Wok Cooking

Do not use round-bottonl woks. You
could be seriously burned if the wok tipped over.

Note: Flat-bottomed canners are required for glass cooktops.
Observe the Following Points in Canning
Pots that extend beyond i inch of the surface unit's circle are not
recommended for most surface cooking. However, when canning
with water-bath or pressure canner, larger-diameter pots may be used. This
is because boiling water temperatures
(even under pressure) are not harmflll
to the cooktop surfhces surrounding the surface units.
HO_gEVER, DO NOT USE LARGE DIAMETER CANNERS OR OTHER
LARGE DIAMETER POTS FOR FRYING OR BOILING FOODS
OTHER THAN WATER. Most syrup or sauce mixtures-and all t}_oesof flTing-
cook at temperatures much higher than boiling water. Such temperatures could
eventually harm the glass cooktop surfaces.
Be sure the canner fits over the
[]
center of the surface unit. If your cooktop or its location does not
allow the canner to be centered on the surface unit, use smaller
diameter pots fBr good canning results.
Flat-bottomed canners nmst be used. Do not use canners _4th
flanged or rippled bottoms (often found in enamelware) because
they don't make enough contact with the surface units and take a
long time to boil water.
[] Remember that canning is a

heating of large quantities of water.
Safe canning requires that harmful microorganisms are destroyed and that thejars are sealed completely. When
canning foodsin a water-bath canner, a gentle but steady boil must be maintained for the required time. When canning foods in apressure canner, the pressure must be maintained for the required time.
After you have adjusted the controls, it is very important to make sure the prescribed boil orpressure levels are maintained for the required time.
Since you must makesure to process the canningjars for the prescribed time,
with no interruption in processing time, do not can on any cooktop surface unit if your canner is not flat.
When canning, use recipes and

procedures from reputable sources. Reliable recipes and
procedures are available from the manuf_mturer of your canner;
