Using the ceramic glass
cooktop
Cooking on the ceramic glass cooktop
is almost the same as cooking on coil
elements. There are, however, a few
differences:
The portion of the surface cooking area
in use will glow red when the element is
turned on. You will see the element cycling
on and off – even on the HI (or MAX.)
setting – to help the area stay at the
temperature setting you choose.
Models WBC441 and IBC441: The right
rear surface cooking area features a
halogen element. This element lights up
as soon as you turn it on, and is brighter
than conventional coil elements.
Make sure the bottom of the cookware
is clean and dry before cooking. Food and
water particles left on the bottom can leave
deposits on the cooktop when it is heated.
Wiping off the cooktop before and after
each use will help keep the surface free
from stains and give you the most even
heating. See the "Caring for Your Cooktop"
section for care and cleaning suggestions.
Do not cook foods directly on the
cooktop.
Lift cookware onto and off of the cooktop.
Sliding cookware on the cooktop could
leave permanent marks on the cooktop.
Do not cook popcorn that comes in
prepackaged aluminum containers on the
cooktop. The container could leave
aluminum marks on the cooktop that
cannot be removed completely.
Do not use the cooktop as a cutting
board.
Do not allow anything that could melt,
such as plastic or aluminum foil, to come
in contact with the cooktop while it is hot.
Dropping a heavy or hard object on the
cooktop could crack it. Be careful when
using heavy skillets and large pots. Do not
store jars or cans above the cooktop.
Sugary spills and soils should be
removed as quickly as possible to avoid
pitting of the surface.

Home canning information
Use the entire surface ("DUAL" setting)
of the left front surface cooking area for
best results.
Use flat-bottomed canners on all types
of cooktops, especially ceramic glass.
Canners with rippled or ridged bottoms do
not allow good contact with the surface.
Center the canner over the largest
surface cooking area. Do not place on two
surface cooking areas at the same time.
The type of material the canner is made
of determines the length of heating time.
Refer to the "Characteristics of cookware
materials" chart later in this section for
more information.
When canning for long periods of time,
allow elements and the surrounding
surfaces to cool down.
Alternate use of the surface cooking
areas between batches or prepare small
batches at a time.
Start with hot water, cover with a lid,
and bring to a boil; then reduce heat to
maintain a boil or required pressure levels
in a pressure canner.
For up-to-date information on canning,
contact your local US Government
Agricultural Department Extension Office
or companies who manufacture home
canning products.
