Using Proper Cookware
Check for flatness by rotating a ruler across the bottom of
the cookware (See
). Cookware should have flat
bottoms that make good contact with the entire surface
heating element (See
).
•
Make sure the burner grates are properly placed on
the cooktop before using the surface burners
(
). The grates are designed to rest inside the
recess on the cooktop.
•
Grates should rest flush against each other and
against the sides of the recess.
•
Do not line the area underneath the grates or any part
of the cooktop with aluminum foil or with any other
lining.
