This appliance
is equipped
with
a 3-prong
grounding
plug for your protection
against shock hazard and
should be plugged directly into a properly grounded
receptacle.
DO NOT cut or remove the grounding
prong from this plug.
For personal safety, the range must be properly

Surface
Unit Flame Size
Never extend the flame beyond
the
outer
edge of the
utensil. A higher
flame simply wastes heat and energy,
and increases your risk of being burned
by the flame,
i
RIGHT
WRONG
For most cooking, start on the highest control setting and then turn to a lower
one to complete the process. Use the chart below as a guide for determining
proper flame size for various types of cooking. The size and type of utensil used
and the amount of food being cooked will influence the setting
needed for
cooking.
For deep fat frying,
use a thermometer
and adjust the surface control knob
accordingly.
If the fat is too cool, the food will absorb the fat and be greasy.
If the fat is too hot, the food will brown so quickly that the center will be
undercooked.
Do not attempt to deep fat fry too much food at once as the food
will neither brown nor cook properly.

Type of Cooking
Start most foods; bring water to a boil; pan broiling
Maintain a slow boil; thicken sauces, gravies; steam
Keep foods cooking; poach; stew
*These settings are based on using medium-weight
aluminum
pans with
lids. Settings
may vary when using other types of pans.
Proper Surface Burner
Adjustments
The color of the flame is the key to proper burner adjustment.
A good flame
is clear, blue and hardly visible in a well-lighted
room. Each cone of flame
should be steady and sharply defined. Adjust or clean burner if flame is yellow-
orange. To clean burner, see instructions
under General Cleaning.
