more surface burners of different sizes Select utensils having flat
bottom large enough to cover the surface burner The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the surface burner to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing Proper
relationship of utensil to the surface burner will also improve

accidentally turned or], the decorative cover will become hot and
possibly melt You will not be able to seethat the burner is on, Burns
will occur if the hot covers are touched Damage may aBo be done
to the cooktop or burners because the covers may cause
overheating, Air will be blocked from the burner and cause
combustion problems,
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not Extend
Over AdJacent Surface Burners--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 burners

Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt,

should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock, Contact a

used towipe spills on a hot cooking area, be carefulte avoid a steam
burn Some cleaners can produce harmful fumes if applied to a hot
surface,

burner pans Protective liners or aluminum foil may interfere with
heat and air distribution, and combustion, Damage to the
cooktop or personal injury may result,
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass, glass/
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden
