Top-of-llange Cookware
Aluminum:
Medium-weight
cookware is recommended because
i[ heats quickly and evenly. Most
fbods brown evenly in an aluminum
skillet. Minerals in food and water
will stain but will not harm
aluminum. A quick scour with a
soap-filled wool pad after each use
keeps aluminum cookware looking
shiny new. Use saucepans with
tight-fitting lids for cooking with
minimum amounts of water.
CastIron:
If heated slowly, most
skillets will give satisfactory results.
Enamelware: Under some
conditions, the enamel of some
cookvwue may melt. Follow cookware
manufacturer's recommendations
for cooking methods.
Glass: There are two types of glass
utensils—those for oven use only
and those for top-of-range cooking
(saucepans, coffee and teapots).
Glass conducts heat very slowly.
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 generally work satistictorily
if used at medium heat as the
manufacturer recommends.
Clock and Timers
The Clock and Timers on your
range are helpful devices that serve
several purposes;

and turn the clock hands to the right

The Minute Timer has been
combined with the range clock.
Use it to time all your precise
cooking operations. You'll nxognize
it as the pointer which is different
in color than the clock hands.
Minutes are marked up to 60 on the
center ring of the clock.

turn the
knob to the left, without pushing in,
until the pointer reaches the number
of minutes you want to time.
At the end of the set time, a
buzzer sounds to tell you time is
up. llm the knob, without pushing
in, until the pointer reaches OFF
and the buzzer stops.

This Timer will automatically start
and stop your oven for you. Here's
what you do:

and the START dial show the correct
time of day. When the START knob
is pushed in and turned, it will "pop"
into place when the time shown on
the range clock is reached.
2. Set the START control. Push
in and turn the START knob to the
time you want the oven to turn its( lf
on. (If you want it to start cooking
immediately, do not set Start time.)
3. Set the S~P control. Push in
and turn the STOP knob to the time
you want the oven to turn itself off.
Note: There must beat least a half-
hour difference between the START
and STOP dials for the automatic
control to work.
4. Set the OVEN SET knob to
AUTO OVEN.
5. Set the OVEN TEMP knob to
the desired cooking temperature.
Now the oven will turn itself on
immediately or at a later Start time
that you set, cook at the temperature
you selected and turn itself off at
the Stop time you selected.
After you take your food out of the
oven, be sure to turn the OVEN
TEMP control to off and the
OVEN SET knob to the MAN
OVEN setting where it should be
kept for normal oven use.
