NOTE: An audible "pop" may be heard when the burner is turned off manually. The "popping" may be louder with LP gas than with natural gas. This is normal. Getting the Most Out Of Your Appliance Cooking Suggestions (For Best Results) • Bring food to a boil. Stir well to be sure all the food is boiling, then cover and reduce the setting to the desired setting. • Use a lid to keep a more constant cooking temperature. • Check the food occasionally to see if the control knob should be turned to a lower or higher setting. • It is normal to stir food occasionally. • There should be steam and slight quivering of the liquid's surface while simmering. • Use proper cookware. (See "Proper Cookware" on page 11.) • Center the pan over the burner before turning the burner on. • Refer to the "Surface Burner Cooking Recommendations" chart on page 11 for suggested settings. Surface Burner Cooking Recommendations Uses Heat Setting Bringing water to a boil High Pan frying, sauteing, browning meat, deep fat frying Medium High Most frying, eggs, pancakes, slow boil Medium Finish cooking covered foods, steaming Medium Low Melting chocolate and Low butter, simmering tomato sauces, soups, stews Proper Cookware Cookware Characteristics • Aluminum or copper bottomed pans conduct heat evenly. • Steel pans, if not combined with other metals, may cook unevenly. • Cast-iron cookware absorbs heat slowly and cooks more evenly at low-to-medium settings. • Flat, heavy bottom pans provide even heat and stability. • DO NOT USE pans that are thin, warped, dented or ridged as they heat unevenly. Choosing Cookware Cookware Recommendations Practice Pan Bottom Diameter • The flame should be the same size as the bottom of the pan or smaller. Do not use small pans with high flame settings as the flames can lick up the sides of the pan. • Oversize pans that span two burners are placed front to back, not side to side. • For best cooking results, large pans should not extend over the sides of the grates. Use Balanced Pans • Balance is important for stability and even cooking. • Pans must sit level on the cooktop grate without rocking or wobbling. • Center pan over burner. English 11
