Use cookware about the same size as the surface cooking 
area. Cookware should not extend more than 1 in. (2.5 cm) 
outside the area.
Cookware designed with slightly indented bottoms or small 
expansion channels can be used.
Make sure the bottoms of pots and pans are clean and dry 
before using them. Residue and water can leave deposits 
when heated.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of surface 
cooking areas, elements or surface burners between batches. 
This allows time for the most recently used areas to cool.
Center the canner on the grate or largest surface cooking area 
or element. Canners should not extend more than 1 in. 
(2.5 cm) outside the cooking area.
Do not place canner on 2 surface cooking areas, elements or 
surface burners at the same time.
On ceramic glass models, use only flat-bottomed canners.
On coil element models, the installation of a Canning Unit Kit 
is recommended. If a kit is not installed, the life of the coil 
element will be shortened. See “Assistance or Service” for 
ordering instructions.
For more information, contact your local U.S. Government 
Agricultural Department Extension Office. In Canada, contact 
Agriculture Canada. Companies that manufacture home 
canning products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Never leave empty cookware on a hot surface 
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides, a well-
fitting lid and the material should be of medium-to-heavy 
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop. Aluminum and copper 
may be used as a core or base in cookware. However, when used 
as a base they can leave permanent marks on the cooktop or 
grates.
Cookware material is a factor in how quickly and evenly heat is 
transferred, which affects cooking results. A nonstick finish has 
the same characteristics as its base material. For example, 
aluminum cookware with a nonstick finish will take on the 
properties of aluminum. 
Griddles with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the 
broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material 
characteristics.
11-inch (28 cm) Square Griddle
The 11 in. (28 cm) griddle is a square pan with extra low sides and 
one long handle. It has an uncoated hard-anodized interior and 
exterior, and is perfect for the high heat needed for searing and 
grilling.
The griddle may also be used in the oven when broiling. When 
finished cooking, use an oven mitt to slide oven rack out to the 
stop position and remove the griddle from the oven.
Do not use knives or metal utensils on the griddle surface. Use 
only plastic or nylon cooking utensils.
Do not preheat on HI. Excessive heat will cause discoloration, 
shorten the life of the surface, and may warp griddle and 
cause damage to the cooktop.
Do not wash griddle in the dishwasher.
First Time Use:
1. Before cooking for the first time, wash the griddle in warm 
soapy water with a sponge. Rinse with warm water and towel 
dry.
2. Preheat griddle on medium setting for 5 minutes.
Allow griddle to cool completely.
3. Apply a light coating of vegetable oil or nonstick cooking 
spray to griddle.
To Use:
1. Place griddle over surface cooking grate, and push in and turn 
the control knob to the MED setting. Preheat griddle for 
5 minutes.
2. Place foods on griddle, and choose correct temperature 
setting for foods according to your recipe.
