WARNING!
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not touch surface
elements.
These surfaces
may be hot enough
to burn even though
they
are dark in color. During and after
use, do not
touch,
or let clothing
or other
flammable
materials
contact
the surface
elements
or areas nearby
the
surface
elements;
allow sufficient
time for cooling
first.
Potentially
hot surfaces
include
the cooktop
and
areas facing
the cooktop.
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 cooktop
without
extending
over any nearby
surface
elements.
Always turn the surface
element
control
to off
before
removing
the cookware.
Use proper
pGn size--select
cookwGre
hGving
flat bottoms
large enough
to cover the surface
element
heating
element.
The use of undersized
cookware
will expose a portion
of the surface
element
to direct
contact
and may result
in
ignition
of clothing.
Proper relationship
of
cookware
to surface
element
will also improve
efficiency.
Never leave surface
elements
unattended
at high
heat settings.
Boilovers
cause smoking
and greasy
spillovers
that may catch
on fire.
Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic,
earthenware
or other glazed
containers
are
suitable
for cooktop
cooking;
others may break
because
of the sudden
change
in temperature.
Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or
medium-high
heat settings.
Foods for frying
should
be as dry as possible.
Frost
on frozen foods or moisture
on fresh foods can
cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of
the pan.
Use little fat for effective
shallow
or deep-fat
frying.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause
spillovers
when food is added.
If a combination
of oils or fats will be used in
frying,
stir together
before
heating,
or as fats melt
slowly.
Always
heat fat slowly, and watch
as it heats.
Use a deep fat thermometer
whenever
possible
to
prevent
overheating
fat beyond
the smoking
point.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a
deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not store flammable
materials
near the
cooktop.
Keep the hood and grease
filters
clean to maintain
good venting
and to avoid grease
fires.
Do not store or use combustible
materials,
gasoline
or other flammable
vapors
and liquids
in
the vicinity
of this or any appliance.
Clean only parts listed in this Owner's
Manual.
Do not leave paper products,
cooking
utensils
or
food on the cooktop
when not in use.
Keep cooktop
clean and free of accumulation
of
grease or spillovers
which
may ignite.
Never heat unopened
food containers.
Pressure
buildup
may make container
burst and cause
injury.
Never leave jars
or cans of fat drippings
on or
near your cooktop.
Never use your appliance
for warming
or heating
the room.
