surface zones and oven heating elements may
be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas
near surface zones may become hot enough to
cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing or other flammable materials touch
these areas until they have had sufficient time to
cool. Among these areas are the cook top,
surfaces facing the cook top, the oven vent
openings and surfaces near these openings,
oven door and window.
Wear proper apparel = Loose=fitting or
hanging garments should never be worn
while using the appliance. Do not let clothing or
other flammable materials contact hot surfaces.
• Do not use water or flour on grease fires=
Smother the fire with a pan lid, or use baking
soda, a dry chemical or foam =type
extinguisher.
• When heating fat or grease, watch it closely.
Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to
become too hot.
Use only dry potholders =Moist or damp
potholders on hot surfaces may result in
burns from steam. Do not let potholders touch
hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth instead of a potholder.
before turning it on, and turn the zone off before
removing the pan.
Use proper pan size--This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of
different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the surface unit heating
element. The use of undersized utensils will
expose a portion of the heating element to direct
contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to element will also
improve efficiency.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and
not extend over adjacent surface elements--To
reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil
should be positioned so that it is turned inward,
and does not extend over adjacent surface units.
,, Never leave surface elements unattended at
high heat settings-- Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan
that has boiled dry may melt.
• Do not immerse or soak removable heating
elements= Heating elements should never be
immersed in water. Heating elements clean
themselves during normal operation.
