• Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pma. Turn the controls off.
Smother a flaming pan on a surtace unit
by covering the pan completely with a
well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or fiat tray:
Use a m tflti-puri)ose dry chemical or
ti)am-type fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put
out by covering it with baking soda or,
if available, by using a mtflti-pm])ose dry
chemical or loam-type fire extinguisher.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
klAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Do not let cooMng grease or other flmnmable
materials accumulate in or near the cooktop.
Cleml drip trays and liners after every use.
• If you smell gas, the installer has not done
a proper job of checking tot leaks. You can
have a small leak and therefln'e a taint gas
smell if the connections are not completely
tight.
Finding a gas leak is NOT a do-it-yourself
procedure. Some leaks can only be fotmd
with the burner control in the ON position
and fin" yotu" protection it must be done bv
a qualified selwice technician. Never use an
open flame to locate a leak.
• If by some chmlce a burner goes out and
gas escapes, open a window or a door to
let the room air out, Do not attempt to
use the appliance tmtil the gas has had
time to dissipate. Follow the instructions
in "What to do if You Smell Gas" on page 2.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of
the cooktop. Using a foil liner could result in
a fire hazard or the obstluction of the flow
of combustion and ventilation aiI: Foil is an
excellent heat insulator and heat will be
trapped tmderneath it. This trapped heat
can upset the cooking i)ertormance and
can damage the finish of the oven or the
cooktop.
• Do not heat unopened food containers;
a build-u I) of pressm'e mav ca use the
container to 1)m_t.
• Set the burner control so that the flmne
heats tufty the bottom of the pml and does
not extend bevond the bottom of the pan.
Excessive flame is hazardous. The high BTU
burnei3 C_lll easily melt cookware handles.
• Hold the hmldle of the pan, using a dry pot
holder, to prevent movement of the utensil
when stirring or tm'ning tood.
• Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
• Always use the LITE position when igniting
the surface burners and inake sure the
bm'ners have ignited.
• Never leave the surface burners unattended
at high flame settings, Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch
on fire. If the bm'ner flames are smothered
by a severe boilover which afli_cts the ignitor,
tud)tu'ned gas will escape into the room.
• Do not let pot holders come near open
flames when lifting cookware. Do not use
a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a
pot holder.
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, ttlYil
cookware handles toward the side or back of
the cooktop without extending over a(!jacent
b/IYIleI3.
