For best results, the cookware should be centered above the
burner with the bottom sitting level on the grate. The fl ame should
be adjusted so that it does not extend up the sides of the pan.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
burners between batches. This allows time for the most-recently
used areas to cool.
■
Center the canner on the grate above the burner.
■
Do not place canner on two surface burners at the same time.

For more information, contact your local agricultural extension
offi ce or refer to published home canning guides. Companies
that manufacture home canning products can also offer
assistance.

Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the fi rst few
times or when it is heavily soiled.
