COOKWARE RECOMMENDATIONS
To avoid the risk of serious injury, damage to the range or cookware, please observe the following guidelines.
Bakeware, such as large casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used on the cook top.
Placement of large stock pots should be staggered when used on the cook top.
Selectthebasediameterofthepottomatchthediameteroftheame.Thediameteroftheameandthediameterofthepan
bottom should match or be slightly smaller. Too large or too small pots on a burner will compromise cooking performance.
Do not place food packaged or wrapped in aluminum foil directly on the burner grate above the burner. Aluminum foil can melt
during cooking.
Becarefultonotletplastic,paperorclothcomeincontactwithahotburnergrate.Thesematerialscancatchreormelt.
Never let a pan boil dry – and if it occurs remember it can be extremely hot – and very dangerous. If this should occur, turn off the
burner immediately. Wait a while, until the pot cools down enough to handle – this could be several minutes, but could save you
from burns or other serious injury.
Thepanbottomshouldbeat,theheavierthebetter–andwellbalancedonthecooktopgrate–sittingatwithoutrocking–
