Dual Valve TripleTier™ Flame Burner
with InstaWok™ Ring
The Dual Valve TripleTier™ Flame Burner with InstaWok™ Ring is
a multifunction burner that provides the best simmering and the
maximum power all in the same burner. The InstaWok™ Ring
supports 12 in. to 14 in. (30.5 cm to 35.6 cm) WOK pans.
The Dual Valve TripleTier™ Flame Burner with InstaWok™ Ring is
functioned by a Dual Valve Control knob, which controls two
separate burners. See “Dual Valve Control” section.
To Use the InstaWok™ Ring:
1. Make sure the control knob is in the OFF position.
2. Allow the grate to cool completely before handling.
3. Remove grate from cooktop and flip the grate over so that the
WOK supports are facing right-side up.
4. Place the wok Ring within the guides.
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 two surface cooking areas, elements
or surface burners at the same time.
■ 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.
Use the following chart as a guide for cookware material
characteristics.
