To Replace:
1. Line up openings in the burner bowl with the coil element 
receptacle.
2. Holding the coil element as level as possible, slowly push the 
coil element terminal into the receptacle.
3. When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it 
will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the 
receptacle.
Home Canning
When canning for long periods, alternate the use of elements 
between batches. This allows time for the most recently used 
areas to cool.
Center the canner on the element. Canners should not extend 
more than ½" (1.3 cm) beyond the element.
Do not place canner on 2 elements at the same time.
For more information, contact your local agricultural 
department. Companies that manufacture home canning 
products can also offer assistance.
Cookware
IMPORTANT: Do not leave empty cookware on a hot surface 
cooking area, element or surface burner.
Ideal cookware should have a flat bottom, straight sides and a 
well-fitting lid, and the material should be of medium-to-heavy 
thickness.
Rough finishes may scratch the cooktop or grates. 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.
Cookware with nonstick surfaces should not be used under the 
broiler.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material 
characteristics.
OVEN USE
Odors and smoke are normal when the oven is used the first few 
times, or when it is heavily soiled.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to 
the fumes given off. Exposure to the fumes may result in death to 
certain birds. Always move birds to another closed and well-
ventilated room.
Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven 
temperature because opening the oven door and element or 
burner cycling may give incorrect readings.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook 
faster or slower than your previous oven.
To Set Oven Temperature:
Push in and turn oven control knob to desired temperature 
setting.
Aluminum Foil
IMPORTANT: To avoid permanent damage to the oven bottom 
finish, do not line the oven bottom with any type of foil or liner.
For best cooking results, do not cover entire rack with foil 
because air must be able to move freely.
To catch spills, place foil on rack below dish. Make sure foil is 
at least ½" (1.3 cm) larger than the dish and that it is turned 
up at the edges.

Heats slowly and evenly.
Good for browning and frying.
Maintains heat for slow cooking.
Ceramic or 
Ceramic glass
Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Ideal results on low to medium heat 
settings.
Copper
Heats very quickly and evenly.

Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Use on low heat settings.
Porcelain 
enamel-on-
steel or cast 
iron

A core or base of aluminum or copper 
on stainless steel provides even 
heating.
