Moving Cookware on a Smooth Cooktop
Always lift cookware before moving on the ceramic
glass smoothtop. Cookware that has a rough or
dirty bottom can mark and scratch the ceramic glass
surface. Always start with clean cookware.
Figure 9: Do not slide cookware on cooktop
pan preheat Recommendations
Induction cooking will decrease the amount of time
required to preheat a piece of cookware compared to
cooking on a radiant or gas cooktop.
•
The Hot Surface indicator light will turn on when
heat is detected in a cooking zone and will re-
main on until the cooktop surface has cooled
sufficiently.
•
If cookware is moved away from the center of an
active cooking zone, the cooking zone will
become inactive. The setting display will flash
until proper cookware is placed in the center of
the cooking zone. When cookware is centered on
the cooking zone, the zone will resume heating.
•
If a cooking zone has no cookware for three min-
utes, it will automatically shut off.
CAUTION
Although induction cooking zones do not directly
generate heat, they can become hot from contact
with hot cookware. Burns may occur if a cooking
zone or the surrounding area is touched before it
has cooled to a safe temperature.
Do not place flammable items such as plastic salt
and pepper shakers, spoon holders, or plastic
wrapping on top of the range when it is in use.
Heat radiating from cookware could cause these
items to melt or ignite. Potholders, towels, or
wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close
to hot cookware.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the
cooktop. Improper installation of these liners may
result in risk of electric shock or fire. If these
items melt on the cooktop, they will damage the
cooktop.

Home Canning
Be sure to read and observe all the following points
when home canning with your appliance.
Check with the USDA (United States Department of
Agriculture) Web site and be sure to read all the
information they have available as well as follow
their recommendations for canning procedures.
•
Use only a completely flat bottom canner with no
ridges that radiate from the bottom center when
home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when
the bottom surface is flat. Use a straight-edge to
check canner bottom.
•
Make sure the diameter of the canner does not
exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element mark-
ings or burner.
•
It is recommended to use smaller diameter can-
ners on electric coil and ceramic glass cooktops
and to center canners on the burner grates.
•
Start with hot tap water to bring water to boil
more quickly.
•
Use the highest heat setting when first bringing
the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved, re-
duce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain
that boil.
•
Use tested recipes and follow instructions careful-
ly. Check with your local Cooperative Agricultural
Extension Service or a manufacturer of glass jars
for the latest canning information.
•
It is best to can small amounts and light loads.
•
Do not leave water bath or pressure canners on
high heat for an extended amount of time.
