WARNING!

SURFACE COOKING UNITS

Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The
use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the
surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will
also improve efficiency.
Never leave the surface
units unattended at
high heat settings.
Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy
spillovers that may
catch on fire.
Be sure the drip pans
and the vent duct are
not covered and are in
place. Their absence
during cooking could
damage range parts
and wiring.
Do not use aluminum
foil to line the drip
pans or anywhere in
the oven except as
described in this
manual. Misuse could
result in a shock, fire
hazard or damage to
the range.
Only certain types of
glass, glass ⁄ceramic,
earthenware or other
glazed containers are
suitable for cooktop
service; others may
break because of the
sudden change in
temperature.
To minimize the
possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable
materials and spillage,
the handle of a
container should be
turned toward the
center of the range
without extending over
nearby surface units.
Always turn the surface
units off before
removing cookware.
Do not immerse or soak
the removable surface
units. Do not put them
in a dishwasher. Do not
self-clean the surface
units in the oven.
When flaming foods
under the hood, turn
the fan on.
To avoid the possibility
of a burn or electric
shock, always be certain
that the controls for all
surface units are at the
OFF position and all
coils are cool before
attempting to lift or
remove a unit.
