Cooktop safety instructions
• Never leave the surface burners unattended at medium or high heat
settings. Foods, especially oily foods, may ignite resulting in fire that could
spread to surrounding cabinets.
• Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its
smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surroun-
ding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil
temperature.
• To avoid oil spillover and fire, use the minimum amount of oil when using a
shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts
of ice.
• Use a proper pan size and avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped.
Select cookware that is matched to the size of the burner. Burner flames
should be adjusted so that they do not extend beyond the bottom of the
pan. Excessive flame may be hazardous.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners and make sure
the burners have ignited.
• When using glass/ceramic cookware, make sure it is suitable for cooktop
service; others may break because of sudden change in temperature.
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and
spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of
the range without extending over nearby burners.
• Do not use a wok with a round metal support ring. The ring may trap heat
and block air to the burner resulting in a carbon monoxide hazard.
• Do not attempt to lift the cooktop. Doing so may damage the gas tubing to
the surface burners resulting in a gas leak and risk of fire.
• When disabling Lock Control (on some models) make sure the surface
controls are set to the OFF position. This will prevent unintended gas flow
from the burners.
• Do not use aluminum foil to cover the grates or line any part of the cooktop.
Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning, overheating of the
cooktop surfaces, or a potential fire hazard.
