te;f;iluse as described in this

aDO NOT TOUCH SURFACE

UNITS, AREAS NEAR UNITS,

HEATING ELEMENTS OR

INTERIOR SURFACES OF

OVEN. Surface units and heat-

ing elements may be hot even

though they are dark in color.

Areas near surface units and

interior surfaces of an oven

become hot enou h to cause

burns. During an2 after use, do

not touch, or let clothing or

other flammable materials

contact surface units, areas

near units, heatin elements or

interior surfaces 0 oven until1

they have had sufficient time to

cool. Other surfaces of the

range may become hot enough

to cause burns; such as, the

oven vent opening, the surface

near the vent opening, the

cooktop and the oven door.

ADOnot weal’ loose or hanging

garments wien using the

range. They could ignite if they

touch a hot surface unit and

you could bz burned.

Use only dri potholders. Moist

or damp po :holders on hot sur-

faces may result in burns from

steam. Do not let potholder

touch hot hl?ating elements. Do

not use a tcwel or bulky cloth for

a potholder It could catch on

fire.

@Keep range vents unobstructed.

*Do not heal unopened contain-

ers. They could explode. The hot

contents could cause burns and

container pIarticles could cause

injury.

ADOnot store?flammable materi-

als on or ncar the range. The

fumes can c:reate an explosion

and/or fire tlazard.

When using the cooktop

*Make sure :he reflector bowls

are in place during cooking.

Cookin %wi. hout reflector bowls

may su ject the wiring and

component 3underneath them to

@Donot line reflector bowls with

aluminum flYI or other liners.

Improper installation of these

liners ma I,esult in a risk of

electric sIY

cck or fire.

*Select a

pan

with a flat bottom

that is abol t the same size as

the surface unit. If pan is smaller

than the surface unit, some of

the heatin element will be ex-

posed an8 may result in the

8 niting of clothing or potholders.

orrect pan size also improves

cooking efficiency.

@Check to be sure lass cook-

ing utensils are sa e for use on

the ran e. Only certain types of

glass, g ass-ceramic, ceramic,

earthenware or other glazed

utensils are suitable for

cooktops without breaking due

to the sudden change in

temperature.

@Never leave surface units

unattended at high heat set-

tings. A boilover could result

and cause smoking and greasy

spillovers that may ignite.

Turn pan handles inward, but

not over other surface units.

This will help reduce the

chance of burns, i niting of

flammable materia s, and spills

due to bumping of the pan.

When using the oven

@Always osition oven rack(s) in

To obtain the best cooking results possible, you must operate your range properly. This section gives

you important inforn ration for efficient and safe use of your range.

Using the surface units

Push in control kn ,bs before turning them to

a setting. You can s st them anywhere between

HI and OFF.

Surface unit markers

The solid dot in the surface unit marker shows

which surface unit i: turned on by that knob.

Surface heal ing indicator light

The SURFACE HEI ,TING Indicator Light on the

control panel will gk w when a surface unit is

turned on.

Burn i md Fire Hazard

Be sure all contra 11knobs are turned to OFF

and all indicator I ghts are OFF when you

are not cooking.

Someone could Ibeburned or a fire could

start if a surface lnit is accidentally left ON.

Until you get used to 1he settings, use the

following as a guide. I:or best results, start

cooking at the high sett ng; then turn the control

knob down to continue :ooking.

Medium-high

To h )Id a rapid boil.

To fr 4chicken or pancakes.

Medium

For !iravy, pudding and icing.

I-

(opposite OFF)

To c )ok large amounts of

vegetables.

Medium-low

To k#?ep food cooking after

stat-l na it on a hiaher settina.

LO /

T,“,;;e; fc;cTrm until

Cookware tips

Select a pan that is a lout the same size as the

surface unit.

NOTE: For best resu Its and greater energy

efficiency, use only fl St-bottomed utensils that

make good contact wi :h the surface units.

Utensils with rounded warped, ridged (porce-

lain enamel-ware) or (lented bottoms could

cause severe overhe? ting, which damages the

utensil and/or surface unit.

Woks, canners and teakettles with flat

bottoms suitable for u ;e on your cooktop are

now available in most houseware stores and

departments.

The pan should have straight sides and a tight-

fitting lid.

9 Choose medium to keavy gauge (thickness)

pans that are fairly ligl It-weight.

The pan material (rnctal or glass) affects how

fast heat transfers fror

the surface unit through

the pan material and t ow evenly heat spreads

over the pan bottom. (:hoose pans that provide

the best cooking resul :s.

Handles should be rn,Ide of sturdy, heat-

resistant material and be securely attached to

the pan.

Product Damage Hazard

If a surface unit stays red for a long time,

the bottom of the pan is not flat enough or is

too small for the surface unit. Prolonged

usage of incorrect utensils for long periods

of time can result in damage to the surface

unit, cooktop, wiring and surrounding areas.

To prevent damage, use correct utensils,

stat-l cooking on HI and turn control down to

continue cooking.

Do not leave an empty utensil, or one which

has boiled dry, on a hot surface unit. The

utensil can overheat and may damage the

utensil or surface unit.

Home cannhrg information

Use flat-bottome zlcanners/pans for best

results.

Use the largest surface unit for best results.

Also, use a canner/pan which can be centered

over the surface Lnit and which does not

extend more than one inch outside surface unit

area. Large diamt ter canners/pans, if not

properly centered trap heat and can cause

damage to the COI)ktop.

Do not place canner on two surface units at

the same time. Tc o much heat will build up and

will damage the CIloktop.

Start with hot water. This reduces the time the

control is set on h gh. Reduce heat setting to

lowest position needed to keep water boiling.

Keep reflector bcIWIS clean for best heat

reflection.

To prolong the life of the elements:

- Prepare small Ibatches at a time.

- Do not use elel nents for canning all day.

Optional canning kit

The large diameter of most water-bath or

pressure canners combined with high heat

settings for long periods of time can shorten the

life of regular surface units and cause damage to

the cooktop.

If you plan to use the cooktop for canning, we

recommend the installation of a Canning Kit.

Order the kit (Part No. 242905) from your

Whirlpool dealer or authorized WhirlpoolSM

service company.

Positioning racks and pans

For baking/roasting with one rack, place the

rack so the top of tf e food will be centered in the

oven.

Rack placement fc r specific foods:

RACK POSITION

Frozen pies, large roasts, Lowest level or 2nd

level from bottom

Angel and bundt cakes, 2nd level from

most quick breads yeast bottom

Cookies, biscuits, nuffins, 2nd or 3rd level

from bottom

When baking on tu ro racks, arrange racks on

bottom and third lev al from bottom.

NOTE: For recommended rack placement when

broiling, see “Broilin J rack position chart” on

page 14.

Personal Injury Hazard

Always position oven rack(s) in desired

location before turning oven on. Be sure

the rack(s) is level.

If rack(s) must be moved while oven is

hot, use potholders or oven mitts to

protect hands.

Failure to follow the above precautions may

result in personal injury.

For best air circulation

Hot air must circulate i .round the pans in the

oven for even heat to Ieach all parts of the oven.

This results in better b lking.

Place the pans so that one is not directly over

the other.

For best results, all DW 1% to 2 inches

(4-5 cm) of space ar#)und each pan and

between pans and o Ien walls. There must be

a minimum space of 1 inch (2.5 cm).

Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at one

time.

Use the following as a guide to determine where

to place the pans.

One pan

Place in the center of he oven rack.

Two pans

Place in opposite corr ers of the oven rack.

Three or four pans

Place in opposite corr ers on each oven rack.

Stagger pans so no pi In is directly over another.

Using aluminum foil for baking

Use aluminum foil to ( atch spillovers from pies or

casseroles.

Place the foil on the oven rack below the rack

with the food. Turn up foil edges and make

sure foil is about 1 i ich (3 cm) larger all around

than the dish holdinl j the food.

Do not cover the errtire rack with aluminum foil.

It will reduce air circ Jlation and cause poor

cooking results.

Do not line oven bc ttom or entire oven rack

with foil or other liners. Poor baking will result.

Electrical She lck and Fire Hazard

elements because it will damage them and

could result in sho :k or fire hazard.
