• Even if the top burner ame goes out, gas is still
owing to the burner until the knob is turned to the O
position. If you smell gas, immediately open a window
and ventilate the area for ve minutes prior to using
the burner. Do not leave the burners on unattended.
Use proper pan size. Do not use pans that are unstable
or that can be easily tipped. Select cookware with at
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid
spillovers, make sure the cookware is large enough to
contain the food properly. This will both save cleaning
time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food,
since heavy spattering or spillovers left on the range
can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily
grasped and remain cool.
• Be sure that all surface controls are set in the O
position prior to supplying gas to the range.
leave the surface burners unattended at high
ame settings. Boilovers may cause smoke and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
• Always turn the knobs to the Lite position when igniting
the top burners and make sure the burners have
ignited.
• Control the top burner ame size so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive ame is
hazardous.
• Only use dry pot holders- moist or damp pot holders
on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not
let pot holders come near open ames when lifting
cookware. Do not use towels or other bulky cloth items.
Use a pot holder.
• If using glass cookware, make sure the cookware is
designed for range-top cooking.
• To prevent burns from ignition of ammable materials
and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side
or back of the range without extending them over
adjacent burners.
leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air
from the vent may ignite ammable items and will
increase pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
• Carefully watch foods being fried at a high ame
setting.
• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
• If frying combinations of oils and fats, stir together
before heating.
• Use a deep fat thermometer if possible to prevent
overheating fat from heating beyond the smoking
point.
• Use the least possible amount of fat for eective
shallow or deep fat frying. Filling the pan with too
much fat can cause spillovers when food is added.
• cook foods directly on an open ame on the
cooktop.
• use a wok on the surface burners if the wok
has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner
grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap,
which may damage the burner grate and burner head.
It may also cause the burner to work improperly. This
may cause carbon monoxide levels which are higher
than what is allowed by current standards, resulting in
a health hazard.
• Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost or
moisture on foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and
spill over the sides of the pan.
try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep
fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
• place plastic items on the cooktop- they may
melt if left too close to the vent.
• Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.
• To prevent burns, always be sure that the controls for
all burners are in the position and all grates are
cool before attempting to remove them.
• If you smell gas, turn o the gas to the range and
call a qualied service technician. Never use an open
ame to locate a leak.
• Always turn the knobs to the O position before
removing cookware.
• lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop can
cause damage and improper operation of the range.
• If the range is located near a window, do not hang
long curtains that could blow over the surface burners
and catch on re.
• Use care when cleaning the cooktop. The pointed
metal ends on the electrodes could cause injury.
