, Do Not Use Water or Ftour on Grease Fires--Smother
the fire with a pan Hd, or use baking soda, a dry
chemicaJ or foam-type extinguisher.
° When heating fat or grease, watch it cJosely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot,
° Use Onty Dry Pothotders--Moist or damp pot holders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not
let the potholders touch the flame or burners, Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth instead of a pot holder,
° Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers--Buildup of
pressure may cause container to buret and resuJt in
injury.
* Know which knob controls each surface burner,
Always turn the knob to the LFE position when igniting the
burners, Visually check that the burner has lit, Then adjust
the flame so it does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil.
Use Proper Flame Size--Adjust flame size
so it does not extend beyond the edge of the utensil. The
use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the burner
flame to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to flame will also improve
efficiency.
Do not use stove top grilts on your seaJed
gas burners, if you use a stove top grill on a sealed gas
burner, it will cause incomplete combustion and can result in
exposure to carbon monoxide levels above allowable cur-
rent standards. This can be hazardous to your health.
Use proper pan size--This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface burners of different sizes.
Select utensils having fiat bottom large enough to cover the
surface burner. The use of undersized utensils will expose a
portion of the surface burner to direct contact and may result
in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to the
surface burner will also improve efficiency.
o Clean the appJiance regularJy to keep aH parts free
of grease that couJd catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch fire. When flaming food
under the hood, turn fan on. Refer to hood
manufacturer's instructions for cleaning.
o Utensil Handtes Should BeTurned Inward from Edges
of Cooktop and Not Extend Over Adjacent Surface
Burners--To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be
positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend
over adjacent surface burners.
Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High
Heat Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite, ora pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface burner pans. Protective liners or aluminum foil
may interfere with heat and air distribution, and
combustion. Damage to the cooktop or personal injury
may result.
Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer's recommendations for cooktop use.
Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a
burner is accidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possibly melt, You will not be able to see
that the burner is on, Burns will occur if the hot covers are
touched, Damage may also be done to the cooktop or
burners because the covers may cause overheating, Air
will be blocked from the burner and cause combustion
problems,
GLASS COOKTOPS (some modeJs):
o Do Not Clean or Operate a Broken Cooktop. If cooktop
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric
shock, Contact a qualified technician immediately,
Ctean Cooktop with Caution. If a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be careful to
avoid a steam burn. Some cleaners can produce harmful
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
o Do Not Ptace Hot Cookware on Cold Cooktop Glass.
This could cause glass to break,
o Do not slide pans across the cooktop surface. They
may scratch the cooktop surface,
Do not tet pans boit dry. Pans that boil dry may
permanently damage the cooktop by breaking, fusing to,
or marking it. (This type of damage is not covered by your
warranty).
