Material characteristics
Aluminum: An excellent heat conductor. Some types of food may cause the
aluminum to darken. However, anodized aluminum cookware resists staining and
pitting.
Copper: An excellent heat conductor but discolors easily.
Stainless steel: A slow heat conductor with uneven cooking performance but is
durable, easy to clean, and resists staining.
Cast-Iron: A poor conductor but retains heat very well.
Enamelware: Heating characteristics depend on the base material.
Glass: A slow heat conductor. Use only glass cookware that is specied for range
top cooking or oven use.
Size limitations
CAUTION
Do not place a small pan or pot with a
bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less
on the center grate. This cookware may tip
over. Use the rear burners for this small-
sized cookware.
Do not use an oversized pan. The burner
ames may spread out, causing damage
nearby.
* : 6 inches or less
