Turn off the unit a few minutes before you are finished cooking. l Do not use the smoothtop module for canning. l Bottoms must be perfectly flat, with NO ridges, rims, patterns, dents, roughness or scratches. -Pans with uneven bottoms cause poor cooking results and may damage the smoothtop. - Nicks and scratches on a pan can damage the smoothtop. l Bottoms must be clean. Heating a soiled pan can leave a stain on the smoothtop.

Sliding aluminum pans or foil, and copper pans, on the smoothtop can leave marks. Aluminum marks can be removed if they are not heated. See page 15 for cleaning and caring suggestions.

8. Cookware

I

1 Only use pans with flat bottoms. Flat bottoms allow maximum contact between the pans and the elements for fast, even cooking. Pans with uneven bottoms or raised patterns on the bottom are not suitable. Flatness of a pan can be checked by placing an edge of a ruler across it. There should not be space between the ruler edge and the bottom of the pan.

Pans should be the same size or larger than the elements to prevent boil-overs and hot handles.

DO NOT USE trivets,

woks with skirts or canners

with concave

or ridged

bottoms.
