section of these instructions.
Do not store or use fl ammable liquids or
materials in the vicinity of this appliance.
This includes some cleaning solvents
and chemicals used in dry cleaning.
Do not use water on grease fi res. Never pick up
a fl aming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a
fl aming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan
completely with a well fi tting lid or baking tray.
If available use a multipurpose dry chemical or
foam-type fi re extinguisher.
Never leave the hotplate unattended at
high heat settings. Pans boiling over can
cause smoking and greasy spills may
catch on fi re.
Never wear loose-fi tting or hanging clothes while
using the appliance. Be careful when reaching
for items stored in cabinets over the hotplate.
Flammable material could be ignited if brought
in contact with a hot surface unit and may cause
severe burns.
Take great care when heating fats and
oils, as they will ignite if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible
to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking
point.
Never leave a chip pan unattended.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as
it heats. Deep fry pans should be only
one third full of fat. Filling the pan too full
of fat can cause spill over when food is
added. If you use a combination of oils
or fats in frying, stir them together before
heating, or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills
or overheating of foods when frying at high or
medium high temperatures. Never try to move
a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait
until the fat is cool.
When the grill is on, do not use the top
of the fl ue (the slot along the back of
the cooker) for warming plates, dishes,
drying tea towels or softening butter.
When using an electrical appliance near the
hotplate, be sure that the cord of the appliance
does not come into contact with the hotplate.

Only certain types of glass, glass-
ceramic, earthenware or other glazed

build up may make container burst and cause
injury.
