Home Canning Tips
Be sure the canner is centered over the surface
unit.
Make sure the canner is flat on the bottom.
To prevent burns from steam or heat, use
caution when canning.
For Models With a Radiant Glass Cooktop
The radiant cooktop features heating units
beneath a smooth glass surface.
NOTE: A slight odor is normal when a new
cooktop is used for the first time. It is caused
by the heating of new parts and insulating
materials and will disappear in a short time.
NOTE: On models with light-colored glass
cooktops, it is normal for the cooking zones to
change color when hot or cooling down. This is
temporary and will disappear as the glass cools
to room temperature.
The surface unit will cycle on and off to
maintain your selected control setting.
It is safe to place hot cookware on the glass
surface even when the cooktop is cool.
Even after the surface units are turned off, the
glass cooktop retains enough heat to continue
cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans
from the surface units when the food is cooked.
Avoid placing anything on the surface unit until
it has cooled completely.
Temperature Limiter on Radiant Glass Cooktops
Every radiant surface unit has a temperature
limiter.
The temperature limiter protects the glass
cooktop from getting too hot.
Use recipes and procedures from reputable
sources. These are available from
manufacturers such as Ball
Department of Agriculture Extension Service.
Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use
of water bath canners with rippled bottoms
may extend the time required to bring the
water to a boil.
Do not slide cookware across the cooktop because
not scratchproof.
■ Water stains (mineral deposits) are
removable using the cleaning cream or full-
strength white vinegar.
■ Use of window cleaner may leave an
iridescent film on the cooktop. The cleaning
cream will remove this film.
■ Don't store heavy items above the cooktop. If
they drop onto the cooktop, they can cause
damage.
■ Do not use the surface as a cutting board.
The temperature limiter may cycle the surface
units off for a time if:
■ the pan boils dry.
■ the pan bottom is not flat.
■
the pan is off-center.
■ there is no pan on the unit.
