Top-of-Range Cookware
Aluminum: Hedium-weight cookware is
recommended because it heats quickly
and evenly. Host 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 meg
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,
HeatproofGlass 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.
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 gout health.
Use a fiat-bottomed wok.
Wok This Wag
We recommend that you use o 14-inch or
smaller fiat-bottomed wok. Hake sure the
wok bottom sits flat on the grote. Theg are
available at Ljour local retail store.
Only a flat-bottomed wok should be used.
Do not use a wok 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 wag.
Surface burners in use when an electrical
power failure occurs will continue to operate
normally.
