Ceramic Warming Zone - Rangemaster Hi-LITE 110 User's Manual & Installation Instructions

When the oven is on, DO NOT leave the oven door
n n
open for longer than necessary, otherwise the
control knobs may become very hot.
When using the grill, make sure that the grill pan
n n
is in position and pushed fully in, otherwise the
control knobs may become very hot.
DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal
n n
scrapers to clean the oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of
the glass.
Always keep combustible materials, e.g. curtains, and
ammable liquids a safe distance away from your cooker.
Never store ammable materials in the drawer.
n n
This includes paper, plastic and cloth items, such
as cookbooks, plastic ware and towels, as well as
ammable liquids. Do not store explosives, such as
aerosol cans, on or near the appliance.
DO NOT spray aerosols in the vicinity of the cooker
n n
while it is on.
Use dry oven gloves when applicable – using damp gloves
might result in steam burns when you touch a hot surface.
Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a glove – it
might catch re if brought into contact with a hot surface.
NEVER operate the cooker with wet hands.
n n
DO NOT use aluminium foil to cover shelves, linings
n n
or the oven roof.
DO NOT use hotplate protectors, foil or hotplate
n n
covers of any description. These may a ect the safe
use of your hotplate burners and are potentially
hazardous to health.
NEVER heat unopened food containers. Pressure
n n
build up may make the containers burst and cause
injury.
DO NOT use unstable saucepans. Always make sure
n n
that you position the handles away from the edge of
the hotplate.
DO NOT use cooking vessels on the hotplate that
n n
overlap the edges.
Never leave the hotplate unattended at high heat settings.
Pans boiling over can cause smoking, and greasy spills may
catch on re. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible
to prevent fat overheating beyond the smoking point.
WARNING!
n n
Unattended cooking on a hob with fat or oil can be
dangerous and may result in re.
NEVER leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat
n n
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.
Do not use the top of the ue (the slots along the back of
the cooker) for warming plates, dishes, drying tea towels or
softening butter.
DO NOT use water on grease res and never pick
n n
up a aming pan. Turn the controls o and then
smother a aming pan on a surface unit by covering
the pan completely with a well tting lid or baking
tray. If available, use a multi-purpose dry chemical
or foam-type re extinguisher.
Cooking high moisture content foods can create a 'steam
burst' when the oven door is opened (Fig.1-1). When
opening the oven stand well back and allow any steam to
disperse.
Take care that no water seeps into the appliance.
This appliance is heavy so take care when moving it.
