Cookware IMPORTANT: This range has induction cooktop elements. Pan size, material, and positioning are very important to achieve the best results. See "Induction Cooking" in the "Cooktop" section before using the cooktop. Only ferromagnetic pans can be used for induction cooking. Ferromagnetic Materials Include: ■■ Enameled steel ■■ Cast iron ■■ Stainless steel designed for induction cooking Non-Ferromagnetic Materials Include: These types of pans will not work with induction cooking. ■■ Stainless steel ■■ Glass ■■ Ceramic ■■ Copper or aluminum pans To find out whether your pans can be used with an induction cooktop, flip the pan over, hold a magnet to the bottom of the pan, and then see whether it sticks. If the magnet sticks to the bottom of the pan, the pan is ferromagnetic and can be used for induction cooking. In addition, many manufacturers are now placing an "induction compatible" symbol on the bottom of their cookware or they will note compatibility on their packaging. See the following symbol. The number on the surface cooking area heat-setting display will flash if no pan is placed on the surface cooking area, the pan is not made of the right material, or it is not the right size. It will stop flashing once a suitable pan is placed on the surface cooking area. If you take longer than 30 seconds to place the correct pan on the surface cooking area, the surface cooking area will turn off. If there is no activity for 90 seconds, the cooktop will turn off. Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, and a well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy thickness. Choose the correct pan size for each surface cooking area. The diameter of the pan's base should correspond to the size of the surface cooking area. NOTE: Cookware manufacturers often give the diameter across the top of the pan. This is usually larger than the diameter of the base. Pans with rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Home Canning Canning can be performed on the induction cooktop. See the "Cookware" section to check if the canner will work on the induction cooktop. When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface cooking areas or elements between batches. This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool. ■■ Center the canner on the largest surface cooking area or element. On electric cooktops, canners should not extend more than 1/2" (1.3 cm) beyond the surface cooking area or element. ■■ Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas or elements at the same time. ■■ On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners to avoid damage to the cooktop and elements. ■■ For more information, contact your local agricultural extension office or refer to published home canning guides. Companies that manufacture home canning products can also offer assistance. 13
