USING THE SURFACE BURNERS

Use the following chart as a guide.

SETTING ..... RECOMMENDED USE

LITE • To light the burner.

Power Burner • To provide highest heat

(left front burner) setting.

Fire Hazard

Do not let the burner flame extend beyond
the edge of the pan.

Turn off all controls when not cooking.

Failure to follow these instructions can

result in death or fire.

Your range comes with electric ignitors that light
the burners each time you turn the control knobs

to RITE.

• Place a filled pan on the burner grate before
turning on the surface burner. Do not operate a

burner for extended periods of time without
having cookware on the grate.

Push in the control knob and turn it counter-

clockwise to the LITE
position. The clicking

sound is the ignitor
sparking. Make sure

the burner has lit.

• Stop the clicking

sound after the burner
lights by turning the

control knob anywhere

between HI and LO.

NOTE: All four electric ignitors will click at the same
time. However, the burner with the control knob

turned to LITE is the one that will ignite.

HI • To start food cooking.

i

Mid-range

: (between HI and

LO)

LO • To keep food warm.

SURESIMMER TM • To provide lowest
setting simmer/heat setting.

(right rear burner) • To melt chocolate or butter.

NOTE: Do not leave empty cookware, or cookware
which has boiled dry, on a hot surface burner. The

cookware could overheat, causing damage to the
cookware or cooking product.

The left front burner is designed to give ultra-high

power when it is fully on. It can be used to rapidly
bring liquid to a boil and to cook large quantities of

food.

The right rear SURESIMMER burner is designed for
low temperature cooking. It allows accurate simmer

control at the lowest setting.

• To bring liquid to a boil.

• To hold a boil.

• To fry chicken or pancakes.

• To cook gravy, pudding, or
icing.

• To cook large amounts of
vegetables.

• To simmer.

,i

REMEMBER: When range is in use or during
the Self-Cleaning cycle, the entire cooktop area

I

may become hot.

• To help shorten your cooking time, use the least

amount of liquid possible.

• Start your food on a higher heat setting, then turn
the control to a lower setting to finish cooking.

I

7

USING THE SURFACE BURNERS (contd.)

The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure
canners combined with high heat settings for long

periods of time can cause damage to the cooktop.

To protect your range:

• Center the canner over the surface burner. Do

not extend more than 1 inch outside the burner
area.

• Do not place your canner on two surface burners
at the same time.

• Start with hot water, cover with a lid and bring to
a boil; then reduce heat to maintain a boil or

required pressure levels in a pressure canner.

• Refer to your canner manual for specific
instructions.

For up-to-date information on canning, contact

your local U.S. Government Agricultural

Department Extension Office or companies who

manufacture home canning products.

• The pan should have a flat bottom, straight sides,

and a well-fitting lid.

• Choose medium to heavy gauge (thickness)
cookware.

• The pan material (metal or glass) affects how
quickly and evenly the pan heats.

• When using glass or ceramic cookware, check to
make sure it is suitable for use on surface burners.

• To avoid tipping, make sure pots and pans are
centered on the grates.

You can manually light surface burners. Hold a lit
match near a burner and turn the control knob to

the LITE position. After the burner lights, turn the
control knob to the setting you want.

CHARACTERISTICS OF COOKWARE MATERIALS

The pan material affects how fast heat transfers from the surface cooking area through the pan material and how
evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.

• Use on low settings.

Stainless steel • Heats quickly but unevenly.

• A core or base of aluminum or copper on the cookware provides

even heating.

• Can be coated with porcelain enamel.

USING THE OVEN

The integrated handle area makes pulling out the
STURDIGLIDE rack simple. The opening is large

enough for a potholder or oven mitt.

The STURDIGLIDE HALF-RACK with removable

insert is a space maximizer. When attached, they
make a full rack. The insert can also be used on

the counter for a cooling rack.

Position a full rack on guide 1 or 2 and the half-rack
on guide 3 or 4. On the full rack place large items on

right side and deeper, covered dishes on left side.
Place shallow dishes on the half-rack. It may be
necessary to increase cooking time. At the end of

cooking, carefully remove items from the oven.

• For best results, allow 2 inches of space around
each pan and between pans and oven walls. Hot

air must circulate around the pans in the oven for
even heat to reach all parts of the oven. This

results in better baking.

Use this rack position when roasting food too large

to be placed on the first

rack position.
For proper roasting,

follow these guidelines:

• To avoid spillage,
remove food before

pulling out the rack.

• Tilt the rack up at the
front before pulling it

'.xtra oven rack position over the door.

• Use an adequate amount of liquid in the pan
(meat juices or water) so your food does not get

overdone.

Where to place pans:

WHEN YOU HAVE PLACE

Place the STURDIGLIDE racks where you need

them before turning on the oven.

• To move a rack, pull it out to the stop position,
raise the front edge and lift it out.

• Be sure the rack(s) is level.

• Use pot holders or oven mitts to protect your hands
if rack(s) must be moved while the oven is hot.

• For best performance, cook on one rack. Place
the rack so the top of the food will be centered in

the oven.

• When cooking with two racks, arrange the racks
on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. Two sheets of

cookies may be baked if sheets are switched at
approximately three quarters of the total bake

time. Increase baking time, if necessary.

BAKEWARE CHOICES

Baking performance is affected by the type of bakeware used. Use the bakeware size recommended in the recipe.

BAKEWARE TYPE BEST USED FOR GUIDELINES

Light colored aluminum • Light golden crusts • Use temperature and time recommended

• Even browning in recipe.

Dark aluminum and other • Brown, crisp crusts • May reduce baking temperature 25°F.
bakeware with dark, dull, ° Use suggested baking time.
and/or non-stick finish ° Use temperature and time recommended in recipe

for pies, breads, and casseroles.

• Place rack in center of oven.

Ovenproof glassware, • Brown, crisp crusts • May reduce baking temperature 25°F.
ceramic glass, or ceramic

Insulated cookie sheets or ° Little or no bottom browning • Place in the bottom third of oven.

baking pans • May need to increase baking time.

Stainless steel • Light, golden crusts • May need to increase baking time.

• Uneven browning

Stoneware • Crisp crusts • Follow manufacturer's instructions.

USING ALUMINUM FOIL

• Do not line the oven bottom with any type of
foil, liners, or cookware. Permanent damage

will occur to the oven bottom finish.

• Do not block the oven bottom vents.

• Do not cover the entire rack with aluminum foil.

Doing so will reduce air circulation and overall

oven performance.

• To catch spillovers from pies or casseroles place

foil on the oven rack below. Foit should be turned

up at edges and be at least 1 inch larger than

dish.

• Place tent-shaped foil loosely over meat or
poultry to slow down surface browning for tong
term masting. Remove foil for the last 30 minutes.

• Use narrow strips of foil to shield piecrust
edges if browning too quickly.
