Cookware
Use only flat-bottomed utensils for best
cooking results and to prevent damage
to the cooktop. Specralty Items with
rounded or ndged bottoms (woks,
ridged bottom canners or tea kettles)
are not recommended.
Burn Hazard
l
If the pan is too small for the
surface unit, you could be
burned by the heat from the
exposed section of the surface
unit. Use correctly sized cook-
ing utensils to prevent injury.
. If a surface unit stays red for a
long time, the bottom of the pan
is not flat enough or is too small
for the surface unit. Prolonged
usage of incorrect utensils for
long periods of time can result
in damage to the surface unit,
cooktop, wiring and surround-
ing areas. To prevent damage,
use correct utensils, start cook-
ing on HI and turn control down
to continue cooking.
Optional canning kit
The large diameter of most water-bath
or pressure canners combined wrth
high heat settings for long periods of
trme can shorten the lrfe of regular
surface units and cause damage to the
cooktop.
If you plan to use the cooktop for can-
ning, we recommend the installation of
a Canning Kit. Order the kit (Part No.
242905) from your Whirlpool Dealer or
Tech-Care’ Service Company.
NOTE: See the Cooking Guide for
additional canning information.
