IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR 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 burnerfiame
to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Knowwhich knob controls each surface burner. Place a
pan of food on the burner before turning it on, and turn the
burner off before removing the pan.
•Always turn knob to the full LITE position when igniting
top burners. Visually check that burner has lit. Then adjust
the flame so itdoes not extend beyond the edge of the utensil.
• Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the
risk ofburns, ignition offlammable 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--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Protective Liners--Do not use aluminum foil to line surface
burner pans, or oven bottom, except as suggested in this
manual. Improper installation ofthese liners may result in risk
of electric shock, or fire.
• Glazed Cooking Utensils--Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or otherglazed utensils
are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to
sudden change in temperatures. Check the manufacturer's
recommendations for cooktop use.

Stand totheside ofthe range when opening the door ofa hot
oven. Let hot air or steam escape before you remove or
replace food in the oven.
• Keep Oven Vent Ducts Unobstructed. The oven vent is
located below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this
area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns.

pan and its insert allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away
from the high heat of the broiler.
