Use flat-bottomed cookware for best cooking results and energy
efficiency. The cookware should be about the same size as the
cooking area outlined on the cooktop. Cookware should not extend
more than ½" (1.3 cm) outside the area.
Home Canning
Canning can be performed on a glass smooth top cooking surface.
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface
cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for
the most recently used areas to cool.
■ Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or
element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend
more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or
element.
■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at
the same time.
■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to
avoid damage to the cooktop and elements.
■ For more information, contact your local agricultural extension
office, or refer to published home canning guides. Companies
that manufacture home canning products can also offer
assistance.
OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.

Energy Save
The Energy Save feature places the control and clock into a Sleep
mode that reduces power consumption when the range is not
being used.
To enter the Energy Save mode, the oven and control must be idle
with the time of day shown on the display. Press and hold CLOCK
for 10 seconds. The control will beep, and the display will show the
letters “ES” followed by “On” twice. The display will return to the
time of day.
If Energy Save mode is activated, each time the range is idle for
5 minutes with only the time of day shown, the display will show
the letters “ES” followed by “On” twice. The display will then be
blank until a control key is pressed or the oven door is opened. The
control will then perform any of its operations in response to
additional key presses.
To exit Energy Save mode, press and hold the CLOCK key for
10 seconds. The control will beep, and the display will show the
letters “ES” followed by “Off” twice. The display will return to the
time of day.
