Whirlpool SF3000SE Use & Care Manual page 5

•
Turn pan handles inward, but not over other
surface burners. This will help reduce the chance
of burns, igniting of flammable materials, and
spills due to bumping of the pan.
•
Do not use decorative covers or trivets over the
surface burners.
When using the oven
•
Always position the oven rack(s) in desired
location while oven is cool.
•
Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or
steam escape before removing or replacing food.
Grease
•
Grease is flammable. Do not allow grease to
collect around cooktop or in vents. Wipe spill-
overs immediately.
•
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up
a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan by covering
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or flat tray.
Flaming grease outside of pan can be extinguished
with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
