Preparing a meal under these
circumstances, while main-

cooperation, requires a kitch-

gas and electric ranges and
microwave ovens, notes that
kitchens are changing.
“In the past, design has
been based on a family with
two to five children, a full-
time, stay-at-home housewife,
and working husband,” she
points out. “Now, the arrival
of shared cooking in the kitch-

the way these areas are being
designed. :

Dual preparation areas
The eye-level range should
‘have 15-18 ‘inches of counter
space on each side so that two
cooks can have their own food
preparation area to use as they
work with both the conven-
tional range and microwave
oven at the same time.

In the changing world of the
Eighties, the predominant
“typical” user of appliances in
the home isn’t mom anymore
—it’s just as likely to be dad or
the kids pitching in to help
with household and cooking
chores.
According to Joy Schrage,
Manager, Appliance Informa-
tion Service (AIS) for Whirl-
pool Corporation, more and
more members of the family
are involved in the every-day
operation of home appliances.
“That’s why the AIS was
developed,’ she said. “We
think there is a need for new
and expanded communica-
tions with today’s changing
customer, and that the
. Appliance Information Ser-
vice can help meet this grow-
ing need.” :
AIS booklets are now avail-
able on: Types of refrigeratdr
defrost systems; How elec-
tronics are being used on
appliances; The basics of mi-
crowave ovens; The language
of microwave ovens; Prevent-
ing appliance service calls;
and Energy saving tips in Ea-
glish and Spanish.
Single copies of each of
these booklets are. available
free by writing to: AILS,

ministrative Center, Bentoh
