SETTING SURFACE CONTROLS
Home Canning
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 recommenda-
tions for home canning procedures.
Use only a completely at bottom canner with no
ridges that radiate from the bottom center when
home canning. Heat is spread more evenly when
the bottom surface is fl at. Use a straight-edge to
check canner bottom.
Make sure the diameter of the canner does not ex-
ceed 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
quickly.
Use the highest heat setting when fi rst 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 careful-
ly. 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.
Using the Griddle (included)
The reversible griddle is ceramic-coated cast iron.
Use non-stick cooking spray or oil as needed. Slowly
preheating the griddle ensures even heat distribution
for best cooking results.
We recommend hand washing with a stiff brush and
very hot water. Use a little soap if needed, and rinse
well. Dry with a lint-free cloth and store in a dry place.
The griddle is dishwasher-safe.
Before fi rst use:
Wash Griddle in hot soapy water. Rinse and then
dry completely.
After each use:
Store in a dry place and keep uncovered.
After each use, clean with a stiff brush and hot
water.
Using the Griddle:
Place either side of the griddle centered over the
left side gas burners.
Preheat the griddle for 5 minutes on medium to
medium low setting. Slow preheat ensures even
heat distribution during the cooking process.
DO NOT preheat the griddle on HI setting. Pre-
heating on HI may warp the griddle and prevent
even heat distribution.
