Kit
(Part No. 242905)
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 from your Whirlpool dealer or authorized WhirlpoolSM
service company.
See the Cooklng
Guide
for additional
canning
information.
