Surface Cooking
Cookware
Using proper cookware
The size and type of cookware used will influence
the setting needed for best cooking results.
Cookware should have flat bottoms that make good
contact with the entire burner grate surface. Check
for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of
the cookware.
Cookware material types
The cookware material determines how evenly and
quickly heat is transferred from the surface burner
to the pan bottom. The most popular materials
available are:
• Aluminum - Excellent heat conductor. Some
types of food will cause it to darken (Anodized
aluminum cookware resists staining & pitting).
• Copper - Excellent heat conductor but discolors
easily.
• Stainless steel - Slow heat conductor with
uneven cooking results. Is durable, easy to clean
and resists staining.
• Cast iron - A poor heat conductor however will
retain heat very well. Cooks evenly once cooking
temperature is reached.
• Porcelain-enamel on metal - Heating
characteristics will vary depending on base
material.
• Glass- Slow heat conductor.
Cookware should always:
• Have flat bottoms.
• Have tight fitting lids.
• Be well-balanced.
• Be made of material that conducts heat well.
• Be easy to clean.
Before setting surface
burners
Check burner cap placement before operating
the surface burners
CAUTION
• To prevent flare-ups and avoid creation of
harmful by-products, do not use the cooktop
without all burner caps properly installed to
insure proper ignition and gas flame size.
• Do not use the surface burners without the
burner caps and burner grates properly
installed. Missing pieces or improper
installation may lead to spills, burns, or
damage to your range and cookware.
It is very important to be sure that all surface
burner caps and burner grates are properly installed
and in the correct locations BEFORE operating the
cooktop burners.
Remember:
• Always keep surface burner caps in place
whenever using a surface burner.
• When placing the burner caps, be sure that all
burner caps are seated firmly and rest level on
top of burner heads.
• For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners DO
NOT allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any
other material to enter the gas orifice port
opening.
