• Page 9 - English - : About the Ceramic Glass Cooktop The ceramic cooktop has radiant surface elements located below the surface of the glass. The design of the ceramic cooktop outlines the area of the surface element underneath. Be sure to match the pan size with the diameter of the element outline on the cooktop and only flat-bottomed cookware should be used. The type and size of cookware. the number of surface elements in use and their settings are all factors that will affect the amount of heat that will spread to areas beyond the surface elements. The areas surrounding the elements may become hot enough to cause burns. —Jimportant | The cooktop should not be used ¢ as a 1 cutting board or : work surface. Dropping heavy or hard objects on the _ cooktop may crack it. | Pans with rough bottoms may scratch the cooktop _ surface. Placing food directly on the smoothtop surface | (without cooking utensil) is not recommended as difficult _ cleaning will result and foods may smoke and cause _ potential fire hazard. Always lift cookware before moving on ceramic glass _ cooktop. Any cookware that has rough or dirty bottoms | can scratch the ceramic cooktop. Always start with clean _ cookware. About the Radiant Surface Elements The element temperature rises gradually and evenly. As the temperature rises. the element will glow red. To maintain the selected setting the element will cycle on and off. The heating element retains enough heat to provide a uniform and consistent heat during the off cycle. For efficient cooking. turn off the element several minutes before cooking is complete. This will allow residual heat to complete the cooking process. Do not allow aluminum foil. or any material that can melt. _ to make contact with the ceramic glass cooktop. If these : items melt on the cooktop. they will damage the ceramic _ cooktop. : ° Radiant elements have a limiter that allows the | element to cycle on and off. even at the HI setting. : This helps to prevent damage to the ceramic smooth | top. Cycling at the HI setting is normal and can occur : if the cookware is too small for the radiant element or if the cookware bottom is not flat. j * Be sure to read detailed instructions for ceramic glass cooktop cleaning in the General Care & Cleaning ' section and Before You Call checklist section of this Use and Care Guide. ¢ The element on and hot surface indicator lights will glow when the element is turned on and will continue to glow after the control knob is turned to the OFF : position. It will glow until the heating surface area has cooled sufficiently. The glass surface may still be hot | and burns may occur if the glass surface is touched before the indicator light has turned off.

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 home canning procedures. Use only quality flat bottom canners when home Use a straight-edge to check canner bottom. 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. Make sure the diameter of the canner does not exceed 1 inch beyond the surface element markings or burner. It is recommended to use smaller diameter canners 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 Use the highest heat seating when first bringing the water to a boil. Once boiling is achieved. reduce heat to lowest possible setting to maintain that boil. Use tested recipes and follow instructions carefully. 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. Alternate surface units between each batch to allow the units and surrounding surfaces to cool down. Try to avoid canning on the same burner unit all day.

• Page 20 - English - : Convection Cooking This mode of cooking enables you to obtain the best results when baking with multiple pans and racks. The oven can be programmed for convection baking at any temperature between 170°F to 550°F. The convection function uses a fan to circulate the oven heat uniformly and continuously around the oven (Figure 16). This improved heat distribution allows for fast. even cooking and browning results. It also gives better baking results when using two oven racks at the same time. Benefits of convection cooking: e¢ Multiple rack baking. ¢ Some foods may cook faster. saving time and energy. Convection baking tips: ¢ Fully preheat the oven before baking items like cookies. cakes. biscuits. and breads. ¢ For single rack baking. position the rack so that food is in the center of the oven. ¢ [f your recipe cooking temperature has already been converted for convection baking. there is no need to reduce your oven temperature. If not. see “Setting Convection Convert” on page 21 for further instructions on temperature conversion. ¢ For best results when baking cakes using two oven racks. place flat rack in position 5 and the glide rack in position 1 (See Figure 16). When baking using two oven racks. position cookware as shown in Figure 17. Allow at least 2 inches (5 cm) of space between cookware for proper air circulation. e¢ Dark or dull bakeware absorbs more heat than shiny bakeware.

Important Notes: It is recommended to remove all racks from the oven during clean cycles. After a self clean cycle. or anytime the gliding is rough. the glide racks should be treated with graphite lubrication. Do not use cooking oil. cooking spray. or other oil-based lubrication products on the glide rack extension tracks. Use only the graphite lubrication in this area. It is important that the parts of the rack that contact the oven sides always have a light coating of vegetable oil. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every clean cycle and when the rack becomes difficult to reposition in the oven. To lubricate the glide rack: Remove the rack from the oven and place the rack on a large flat surface covered with newspaper or scrap cloth. Fully extend the rack. Wipe away debris and crumbs from the glide track using a cloth or sponge. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Place four drops of graphite lubrication along the tracks (see area circled on figure below). Repeat on both sides of the glide 5. Turn glide rack over. Shake graphite lubrication very well before applying. Place four drops of graphite lubrication along the tracks. Repeat on both sides of the glide rack. 6.
