of flammable materials, and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back of the
range without extending over adjacent burners.
Always turn surface burner to OFF before
removing cookware.
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
Never block the vents (air openings) of the

are necessary for the range to operate properly
with correct combustion. Air openings are located
at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of
the oven door, and at the bottom of the range,

of pan.
Use least possible amount of fat for effective
shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too
full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frying, stir together before heating or as fats
melt slowly.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible
to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking
point.
Use proper pan siz+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 accumulations
of food, since heavy spattering or spillovers left
on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that
can be easily grasped and remain cool.
