Some cooktops have both radiant and halogen surface units. This is how they differ . • Halogen units are much brighter than the radiant units. Radiant units have a dull red glow . • Halogen units hum louder than radiant units when they are first turned on.
12 HOME CANNING TIPS Canning should be done on the surface units only . Pots that extend beyond 1 inch of the surface unit are not recommended for most surface cooking . However , when canning with water-bath or pressure canner , larger -diameter pots may be used.
SURF ACE CONTROLS At both OFF and HI the control “clicks” into position. Y ou may hear slight “clicking” sounds during cooking, indicating the control is keeping the unit at the heat level or power level you set. Switching heats to higher settings always shows a quicker change than switching to lower settings.
A “HOT SURF ACE” light will glow brightly when any element is turned on, and will remain lit after the unit is turned off until the surface is cool enough to touch. Each element has its own “HOT SURF ACE” indicator light. • It comes on instantly when the unit is turned on.
15 W ok Cooking W e recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. Do not use woks that have support rings. Use of these types of woks, with or without the ring in place, can be dangerous. Placing the ring over the surface unit will cause a build-up of heat that will damage the porcelain cooktop.
16 SURF ACE COOKW ARE TIPS (Glass Cooktop models only—continued) How to Check Pan Performance Use of correct cookwar e can affect the cooking performance and cleaning of your cooktop. The correct cookware reduces the temperature of the cooktop surface and minimizes the chance of spillovers burning onto the cooktop.
Surface Cookwar e Tips Halogen/Radiant Surface Cleaning HALOGEN/RADIANT SURF ACE CLEANING (on some models) Glass Cooktop Cleaning Cleaning of glass cooktops is dif ferent from cleaning a standard porcelain finish. T o maintain and protect the surface of your new glass cooktop follow these basic steps.

Using Y our Oven Convection Cooking CONVECTION COOKING What is Convection? In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air over , under and around the food. This circulating hot air is evenly distributed throughout the oven cavity . As a result, foods are evenly cooked and browned— often in less time with convection heat.
CONVECTION BAKING Adapting Recipes For Convection Baking As a general rule, reduce the temperature by 25°F . for convection baking. For more specific instructions, follow the guidelines in the Convection Cookbook. Preheating is not necessary with foods having a bake time of over 15 minutes.

Regular Baking Baking Guides When using prepared baking mixes, follow package recipe or instructions for the best baking results.

37 REGULAR ROASTING Questions and Answers Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a meat thermometer? A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the completion of cooking time is recommended if you did not use the probe while cooking. T emperatures are shown in the Roasting Guide.
BROILING Do not lock the oven door with the latch during broiling. The latch is used for self-cleaning only . Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the upper broil element in the oven. Most fish and tender cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.
39 Questions and Answers Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a grid in the pan? A. Y es. Using the grid suspends the meat over the pan. As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan, thus keeping meat drier . Juices are protected by the grid and stay cooler , thus preventing excessive spatter and smoking.
BROILING GUIDE • Always use a broiler pan and rack. They are designed to minimize smoking and spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower part of the pan. • The oven door should be open to the broil stop position. • If desired, marinate meats or chicken before broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to 10 minutes only .
