HOME CANNING TIPS

Before using the coc^top for the first time, take
a few moments to familiarize yourself with the

elements and the knob used to turn on each
element. The sign near each control knob
shows you which element is turned on by that

knob.

Set on or between

marks for desired
heat.

Water-bath or pressure canners and large

diameter pots extending more than 1 ' beyond
the edge of the cooktop element may be used
for canning. This is because the temperature

needed to boil water is not harmful to the
surfaces surrounding the cooktop elements.

However, do not use large diameter

canners, pots or pans for anything

other than boiling water.
