Cookware - GE P2S975 Owner's Manual

se a flat-bottomed wok.
Top-of-Range Cookware
luminum: Medium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Most foods brown evenly in
an aluminum skillet. Use saucepans with
tight-fitting lids when cooking with
minimum amounts of water.
Cast-Iron: If heated slowly, most skillets
will give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some conditions,
the enamel of some cookware may
melt. Follow cookware manufacturer's
recommendations for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass
cookware—those for oven use only
and those for top-of-range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and teapots).
Glass conducts heat very slowly.
Stove Top Grills
Do not use stove top grills on your sealed
gas burners. If you use the stove top grill
on the sealed gas burner, it will cause
incomplete combustion and can result
in exposure to carbon monoxide levels
above allowable current standards.
This can be hazardous to your health.
Wok This Way
We recommend that you use a 14-inch (35.6 cm)
or smaller flat-bottomed wok. Make sure the wok
bottom sits flat on the grate. They are available at
your local retail store.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.
Do not use a flat-bottomed wok on a
support ring. Placing the ring over the
burner or grate may cause the burner
to work improperly, resulting in carbon
monoxide levels above allowable
standards. This could be dangerous to
your health.
In Case of Power Failure
In case of a power failure, you can light
the gas surface burners on your range
with a match. Hold a lit match to the
burner, then push in and turn the control
knob to the LITE position. Use extreme
caution when lighting burners this way.

Heatproof Glass Ceramic: Can be used
for either surface or oven cooking. It
conducts heat very slowly and cools very
slowly. Check cookware manufacturer's
directions to be sure it can be used on gas
ranges.
Stainless Steel: This metal alone has
poor heating properties and is usually
combined with copper, aluminum
or other metals for improved heat
distribution. Combination metal skillets
usually work satisfactorily if they are used
with medium heat as the manufacturer
recommends.
Surface burners in use when an electrical
power failure occurs will continue to
operate normally.
NOTE: If range lock-out is in use at the time of a
power failure, the surface burners cannot be lit.
