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.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
NEVER USE WATER ON A GREASE FIRE.
The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat
after the controls have been turned off.
Never leave the surface units unattended at
high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
Do not operate the radiant surface units if
the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning
solution may penetrate a broken cooktop and
create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately should your
glass cooktop become broken.
Flooring under the Range
Your range, like many other household items, is
heavy and can settle into soft floor coverings such
as cushioned vinyl or carpeting. When moving the
range on this type of flooring, it should be installed on
a l/4-inch thick sheet of plywood (or similar material)
as follows:
When the floor
of the range, the area the range will rest on should be
built up with plywood to the same level or higher than
the floor covering. This will allow the range to be
moved for cleaning or servicing.

Leveling the Range

Use a 1%" open end or adjustable wrench to equally
back out the four legs. The flanges (rims) below the
sides of the cooktop must be raised above the top of
the counter. Carefully slide the range into its
installation space. Observe that it is clearing the
countertop. Then place a spirit level or a glass
measuring cup partially filled with water on one of the
oven shelves to check for levelness. If using a spirit
level, take two readings, with the level placed
diagonally first in one direction and then the other.
Adjust the four legs carefully. You will need to
remove the grease jars to adjust the rear legs. The
range legs should rest on the floor. The range must
not hang from the counter.
