2. Pullthecoilelementstraightawayfromthereceptacle.
3. Liftouttheburnerbowl.
To Replace:
1. Line up openings in the burner bowl with the coil element
receptacle.
\
2. Holding the coil element as level as possible, slowly push the
coil element terminal into the receptacle.
3. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it
will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the
receptacle.
The lift-up cooktop provides easy access for cleaning beneath.
Do not drop the cooktop. Damage could occur to the finish and
the cooktop frame. For more information, see the "General
Cleaning" section.
To Lift:
Lift the cooktop by both front corners until the supports lock into
place.
To Replace:
1. Lift the cooktop from both sides while pressing the support
rods back to unlock them.
2. Slowly lower the cooktop into place.
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches.
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
• Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking
area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not
extend more than 1/2"(1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking
area or element.
• Do not place canner on two surface cooking areas, elements
or surface burners at the same time.
• On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
• On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit
is recommended. If a kit is not installed, the life of the coil
element will be shortened. See "Assistance or Service" for
instructions on ordering.
• For instructions on ordering, contact your local U.S.
Government Agricultural Department Extension Office.
Companies that manufacture home canning products can
also offer assistance.
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. Aluminum and
copper may be used as a core or base in cookware. However,
when used as a base they can leave permanent marks on the
cooktop or grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has
the same characteristics as its base material. For example,
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the
properties of aluminum.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the
broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
