IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
GAS COOKTOP
- Use Proper Flame Size —
Adjust flame size so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the utensil. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of
the burner flame to direct contact and may
result in ignition of clothing. Proper relation-
ship of utensil to flame will also improve effi-
ciency.
Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware with
food on the cooking area before turning it
on. Turn the cooking area off before
removing the cookware.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units of
different sizes. Select cookware with flat
bottoms that match the surface unit heating
element. The use of undersized cookware
may expose a portion of the flame to direct
contact and may result in the ignition of
clothing or other items. Using the proper
cookware on the cooking areas will improve
efficiency.
Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check that
burner has lit. Then adjust the flame so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the
utensil.
To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil, the
handle of the utensil should be positioned so
that it is turned inward, and does not extend
over adjacent surface burners
Never leave surface burners unattended at
high heat settings — Boil overs cause
smoking and greasy spill overs that may
ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,earth-
enware, or other glazed utensils are suitable
for cook top service without breaking due to
the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cook
top use.
When you are flaming foods under a venti-
lating hood, turn the fan on.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil,
aftermarket oven liners, or any other
materials or devices to line oven bottom,
oven racks, or any other part of the appli-
ance. Only use aluminum as recommended
for baking, such as lining cookware or as a
cover placed on food. Any other use of
protective liners or aluminum foil may result
in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short
circuit.
Use care when opening oven door, lower
oven door, or warmer drawer (some models).
Stand to the side of the appliance when
opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or
steam escape before you remove or replace
food in the oven.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching
surfaces in this area when the oven is on may
cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or
heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent.
These items can melt or ignite.
Placement of oven racks - Always place oven
racks in desired location while oven is cool. If
rack must be moved while oven is hot, do not
let potholder contact hot burner or element
in oven. Use potholders and grasp the rack
with both hands to reposition. Remove all
cookware and utensils before moving the
rack.
Do not use a broiler pan without its insert.
Broiler pans and inserts allow dripping fat to
drain away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the broiler insert with aluminum
foil; exposed fat and grease could ignite.
Do not cook food on the oven bottom.
Always cook in proper cookware and always
use the oven racks.
