For best cooking results, use a pan with a flat bottom.
Determine if pan has a flat bottom.
1. Rotate a ruler along bottom of pan. If pan is not flat,
gaps between bottom of pan and edge of ruler occur.
2. A small groove or mark on a pan does not affect
cooking times. However, if a pan has a gap, formed
rings, or an uneven bottom, it does not cook
efficiently and in some cases may not boil liquid.
Use Flat Bottom Pans
Cooking Utensils
• Use proper pan size. Do not use a pan that has a
bottom smaller than element. Do not use utensils that
overhang element by more than 1 inch.

Utensil Recommendations
Canning
Caloric manufactures a special canning element that
enables canning without causing damage to the range.
In many types of ranges, heat generated by canning
cookware overheats a regular element and can cause
failure of the heating element and possible damage to the
backguard. This hazard can be prevented by using the
canning element.
