have fiat bottoms that
make good contact
with the entire surface
Check for flatness by
rotating a ruler across Figure 1
the bottom of the
cookware (See Figure

for using cookware as shown in Figure 2,
Note: The size and type of cookware used
wiii influence the setting needed for best
cooking results,
Note: Always use a utensil for its intended
purpose, Follow manufacturer's instructions,
Some utensils were not made to be used in
the oven or on the cooktop,

* Specialty pans such as lobster pots, griddles and pressure cookers may be ::::i:
used but must conform to the above recommended cookware requirements,
Woks with fiat bottoms suitable for use
on your cooktop are available in most
cookshop or hardware stores, Round-
bottomed woks (with a support ring that
does not extend beyond the burner unit)
may also be used, The metal ring was
designed to support the wok safely when
it is filled with large amounts of liquids
(soup making) or fat (frying),
Wire trivets: Do not use wire trivets,
Cookware bottoms must be in direct con-
tact with the grates,
DO NOT use a wok if it is equipped with
a metal ring that extends beyond the
burner unit. Because this ring traps
heat, the surface unit and cooktop
surface could be damaged.
Using a Griddle
The griddle is intended for direct food
cooking and can be used on both sides
(Figures 4 and 5), Do not use pans or other
cookware on the griddle, Doing so could
damage the finish, With the grate in
position over the burner, set the griddle on
top of the grate positioning the notches in
the griddle over the grate fingers(Figures 3
and 4),

Be sure the griddle is positioned correctly and staMe before use to prevent hot spills and possiMe burns.
