Instructions - Whirlpool SM988PES Use & Care Manual

11.
DO
NOT use a wet pot holder.
Steam burns can result. DO NOT
use a towel or bulky cloth as a
pot holder. They could catch fire
and burn you.
12. MAKE SURE the utensils you use
are large enough to contain
food and avoid boil overs and
spillovers. This will help prevent
hazardous build-ups of food.
Heavy splatterings or spillovers
left on a range can ignite and
burn you. Pan size is especially
important in deep fat frying.
13. DO NOT leave surface burners on
high heat settings. Boil overs and
greasy spillovers could cause
steam, smoke and could ignite
and burn you.
14. GREASE is flammable and
should be handled carefully. Let
fat cool before attempting to
handle it. Do not allow grease to
collect around range or in
vents. Wipe spillovers
immediately.
15.
NEVER use a match or other
flame to look for a gas leak.
Explosion and injury could result.
16.
DO NOT repair or replace any
parts unless specifically recom-
mended in this manual. All other
servicing should be referred to a
qualified service technician.
17. Because of the automatic
exhaust fan system, the following
cautions must be observed:
a. Do not leave the area when
using your cooktop at a high set-
ting. Accidental fires from
boilovers or spattering on the sur-
face burners could spread,
especially if the exhaust fan is
operating.
b. Do not operate the exhaust vent
system without the filters in place.
Grease could accumulate in the
venting system and cause a fire
hazard.
c. Do not allow grease and soil to
build up in the grease filters.
Exhaust fan efficiency will de-
crease and fire may result. Clean
often following the filter cleaning
instructions on page 22.
d. Do not "flame" foods when oper-
ating the exhaust fan. The fan, if
operating, may spread the flame
and cause personal injury or
property damage.
. FOR YOUR SAFETY.
DO NOT STORE OR USE GASOLINE OR OTHER FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS
IN THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE. THEY COULD IGNITE
CAUSING EXPLOSION AND/OR FIRE.
