Do not let
potholder
touch hot heating elements.
Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth.
[] DO NOT TOUCH
SURFACE
UNITS OR AREAS
NEAR
UNITS - Surface
units may be hot even though
they are
dark in color. Areas near surface
units may become
hot
enough
to cause burns.
During
and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing
or other flammable
materials
contact
surface
units or areas
near units until they have had sufficient
time
to cool. Among
those areas are the cooktop
and surfaces
facing the cooktop.
[] Use Proper Pan Size - The range is equipped
with one or
more surface
units of different
size. Select utensils
having
flat bottoms
large enough
to cover the surface
unit heating
element.
The use of undersized
utensils will expose
a
portion of the heating
element
to direct contact
and may
result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship
of utensil to
burner will also improve
efficiency.
[] Never Leave Surface
Units Unattended
at High Heat
Settings
- Boilover
causes
smoking
and greasy
spillovers
that may ignite.

cooking
may
subject wiring or components
underneath
to damage.

shock,
or fire.
[] Glazed
Cooking
Utensils
- Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic,
ceramic,
earthenware,
or other glazed
utensils are suitable
for range-top
service
without
breaking
due to the sudden
change
in temperature.
[] Utensil
Handles
Should
Be Turned
Inward and Not Extend
Over Adjacent
Surface
Units - To reduce
the risk of burns,
ignition of flammable
materials,
and spillage due to
unintentional
contact
with the utensil,
the handle of a
utensil should
be positioned
so that it is turned inward,
and
does not extend over adjacent
surface
units.
[] Do Not Soak Removable
Heating
Elements
- Heating
elements
should
never
be immersed
in water.
[] Do Not Cook on 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.
[] Clean Cooktop
With Caution
- If a wet sponge
or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot cooking
area, be careful to
avoid steam burn. Some cleaners
can produce
noxious
fumes
if applied
to a hot surface.
[] Use Care When Opening
Door - Let hot air or steam
escape
before
removing
or replacing
food.
[] Do Not Heat Unopened
Food Containers
- Build-up
of
pressure
may cause container
to burst and result in injury.

contact
hot heating
element
in oven.
[] DO NOT TOUCH
HEATING

SURFACES
OF OVEN - Heating elements
may be hot even
though
they are dark in color. Interior surfaces
of an oven
become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use,
do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials
contact
heating elements
or interior surfaces
of oven until
they have had sufficient
time to cool. Other surfaces
of the
appliance
may become
hot enough to cause burns - among
these surfaces
are oven vent openings
and surfaces
near
these openings,
oven doors, and windows
of oven doors.
