Optional canning kit
The large diameter of rrxjst water-bath or 
pressure canners combined with high heat 
settings for long periods of time can shorten 
the life of regular surface units and cause 
damage to the cooktop.
If you plan to use the cooktop for canning,
we recommend the installation of a Canning 
Kit. Order the kit (Part No. 242905) from 
your Roper dealer or authorized Roper 
service company.
Positioning racks and pans
NOTE: For recommended rack placement
when broiling, see “Broiling rack position 
chart" on page 15.
For baking/roasting with one rack, place
the rack so the top of the food will be 
centered in the oven.
Rack placement for specific foods:

^WARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
• Always position oven rack(s) in
desired location before turning oven 
on. Be sure the rack(s) is level.
• If rack(s) must be moved while oven
is hot, use potholders or oven mitts 
to protect hands.
Failure to follow the above precautions
could result in personal injury.
For best air circulation
The hot air must circulate around the pans in the
oven for even heat to reach all parts of the oven.
This results in better baking.
• Place the pans so that one is not directly over 
the other.
• For best results, allow 1 Va to 2 inches
(4-5 cm) of space around each pan and
between pans
arKi
oven walls. There must be
a minimum space of 1 inch (2.5 cm).
• Use only one cookie sheet in the oven at one
time.
Use the following as a guide to determine
where to place the pans:
One pan
Place in the center of the oven rack.
Two pans
Place in opposite corners of the oven rack.
Three or four pans
Place in opposite corners on each oven rack.
Stagger pans so no pan is directly over another.
