The Exhaust Hood

The exhaust fan in the oven will operate

automatically under certain conditions (see

operating, caution is required to prevent the

starting and spreading of accidental cooking

fires while the exhaust fan is in use. For this

reason:

heat settings. Boilover causes smoking and greasy

use adequate sized cookware and use high heat only

when necessary.

—In the event of a grease fire, smother

flaming pan on surface unit by covering

pan completely with well-fitting lid,

cookie sheet or flat tray.

—Never flame foods under the oven with the

exhaust fan operating because it may spread the

flames.

—Keep hood and grease filters clean, according

to instructions in the Exhaust Feature section, to

maintain good venting and avoid grease fires.
