Utensils for Smoothtop
Before cooking on smoothtop, treat top with cleaner
conditioner. Conditioning smoothtop before use makes
marks and stains easier to remove.
For best cooking results, use a pan with a flat bottom.
Determine if pan has a flat bottom.
1. Rotate a ruler along bottom of pan. If pan is not flat,
gaps between bottom of pan and edge of ruler occur.
2. A small groove or mark on a pan does not effect
cooking times. However, if a pan has a gap, formed
rings, or an uneven bottom, it does not cook
efficiently and in some cases may not boil liquid.
Follow these recommendations only as a guide for times
and temperature. Times, rack position, and temperatures
may vary depending on conditions and food type. For best
results, always check food at minimum time. When
roasting, choose rack position based on size of food item.
Oven Rack Placement
Position oven rack before turning oven on.
1. Pull rack forward to stop position.
2. Raise front edge of rack and pull until rack is out of
oven.
3. Place rack in new rack position.
• Curved edge of rack must be toward rear of oven.
Pan Placement
• Keep pans and cookie sheets 2 inches from oven
walls.
• Stagger pans placed on different racks so one is
not directly over the other.
