IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SUt A CE COOKING
*Always turn the surface burners to OFF"
before removing cookwaxe.
* Carefully watch foods being fried at a lfigh
flame setting.
, Foods for frying should be as dry as
possible. Frost o1, fl'ozen fl_ods or moisture
on fl'esh fl)ods can cause hot fitt to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan.
" Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep fat frying. Filling
the pan too hill of tht can cause spillovers
when iood is added.
* Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating tht beyond
the smoking point.
* Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep iht fl'yer. Wait until the tht is cool.
, When using glass cookwaxe, make sure it
is designed fin" top-of-range cooking.
* If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frying, stir together beflwe heating or
as thts melt slowly.
, Do not leave aaay items on the cooktop.
The hot air fl'om the vent may ignite
flammable items and will increase pressm'e
in closed containers, which may cause them
to burst.
* Use proper pan size--avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers and
spillovers and large enough to cover burner
grate. This will both save cleaning time and
prevent hazardous accmmflations of fl)od,
since hea W spattering or spillovers lef* on the
range can ignite. Use pans with handles that
can be easily grasped and remain cool.
, Keep all plastics away from the top burners.
, Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop--
they may melt if left too close to the vent.
" To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls fl)r all burners are at
the OFF position and all grates are cool
beflwe attempting to remove them.
" Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do
flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
, Grease is fla_nmal}le. Let hot grease cool
beflwe attempting to handle it. Avoid letting
grease deposits collect in the grill or the
griddle drip trays. Clean these areas after
e;ich rise.
" For proper fighting and performance of the
cooktop burners, keep the burner ports
clean. It may be necessary to clean these
when there is a boilo\ er or when the bm'ner
does not light, even though the electronic
ignitors click.
, After cleaning, it is important to mal<e sure
the cap and burner port are properly aligned
with the burner base. Incorrect alignment
will produce poor burner perfl_rmance.
Never operate the bm'ner without all bm'ner
parts in place.
, Clean the cooktop with caution. Avoid steam
burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth
to clean the cooktop while it is hot. Some
cleaners produce noxious hinges if applied
to a hot surthce. Follow Faanufilcturer's
directions.
, Do not use the grill for cooking excessively
fatty meats or products which promote
flare-up.
* If range is located near a window, do not
hang long curtains that could blow over the
surfhce burners and create a fire hazard.
" Be sure all the range a_ad/or cooktop
controls are turned off and the appliance is
cool befl_re using any type of aerosol cleaner
or cooking spray on or around the appliance.
The chemical that produces the spraying
action could, in the presence of heat, ignite
or cause metal parts to corrode.
