Burn, Fire, and Explosion Hazard
l
Burner flame should not extend
beyond the edge of the cooking
utensil. The flame could burn you
and cause poor cooking results.
l
Be sure all control knobs are turned
to OFF when you are not cooking.
Someone could be burned or a fire
could start if a burner is accidentally
left ON.
l
If the flame should go out while cook-
ing, or if there is a strong gas odor,
turn the burners OFF. Watt five
minutes for the gas odor to disappear
before relighting burner. If gas odor is
still present, see safety note on page 3.
Failure to follow these precautions
could result in explosion or fire.
Product Damage Hazard
Do not leave an empty utensil, or one
which has boiled dry, on a hot surface
burner.
The utensil could overheat and could
damage the utensil or cooking product.
Cookware tips
No one brand of cookware is best for all
people. Knowing something about pan
materials and construction will help you
select the correct cookware for your needs.
l
NOTE: For best resuits and greater fuel
efficiency,
use only flat-bottomed cook-
ware in good condition.
l
The pan
should have straight sides and a
tight-fitting lid.
l
Choose medium to heavy gauge
(thick-
ness) pans that are fairly lightweight.
l
The pan material
(metal or glass) affects
how fast heat transfers from the surface
burners through the pan material and how
evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom.
Choose pans that provide the best cooking
results.
l
Handles
shoukl be made of a sturdy, heat-
resistant material and be securely attached
to the pan.
