Cleaning - Rangemaster 110 Gas User's Manual & Installation Instructions

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 fire if brought into
contact with a hot surface.
Never operate the cooker with
n n
wet hands.
Do not use aluminium foil to
n n
cover shelves, linings or the oven
roof.
DO NOT use hotplate protectors, foil or hotplate
n n
covers of any description. These may affect the safe
use of your hotplate burners and are potentially
hazardous to health.
Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure build up
n n
may make the containers burst and cause injury.
Do not use unstable saucepans. Always make sure that you
n n
position the handles away from the edge of the hotplate.
Never leave the hotplate unattended at high heat settings.
Pans boiling over can cause smoking, and greasy spills may
catch on fire. 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 fire.
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 flue (the slots along the back of
the cooker) for warming plates, dishes, drying tea towels or
softening butter.
