Use only flat-bottomed utensils for best cooking results and to prevent damage
to the cooktop. Specialty items with rounded or ridged bottoms (woks, ridged
bottom canners or tea kettles) are not recommended.
See the Cooking Guide for important utensil information.
Optional Canning Kit (Part
NO.
242905)
The large diameter of most water-bath or pressure canners combined with
high heat settings for long periods of time can shorten the life of regular surface
units and cause damage to the cooktop.
If you plan to use the cooktop for canning, we recommend the installation
of a Canning Kit. Order the kit from your Whirlpool Dealer or Tech-Care” Service
Company.
See the Cooking Guide for important canning information.
NOTE: Excess steam and moisture can cause false readings on the
electronic oven controls. Avoid excess moisture by positioning
teakeffles, etc...away from the electronic controls. If false readings
occur, dry the keyboard. If the false reading remains, reset the
house circuit breaker, then reset the controls.
About the Electronic Oven Controls
There are three parts in the oven control section:
-The Digital Display,
-Command Pads with Signal Lights,
- Number Pads,
Instructions for each oven control are covered on the following pages. Read
them carefully.
When you first plug in the range, the Display will show “PF.” This stands for “Power
Failure:’ If after you set the Clock (page 8) the Display again shows “PF,” it means
your electricity was off for a while. Reset the Clock and any other functions
which may have been set.
NOTE:
l KEEP THE CONTROL PANEL CLEAN. Food or moisture on the panel can
affect proper operation.
l When the control panel temperature is too high, the rear surface units
automatlcally shut off. This may occur during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
When temperatures return to normal, the rear units can be used again.
l Do not operate any surface unit without a pan. If the two rear units
are left on without a pan, they will eventually automatically shut
off. When temperatures return to normal, the rear units can be used
again.
