SURFACECOOKINGUNITS
Use proper pan size--Avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to properly contain food and avoid boilovers and spillovers and large enough to
cover burner grate. This will both save cleaning time and prevent hazardous accumulations of food,
since heavy spattering or spillovers left on range can ignite. Use pans with handles that can be easily
grasped and remain cool
• Always use file LITEposition (on elecuic
ignition models) or the HI position (on
standing pilot models) when igniting top
burners and make sure the burners have
ignited.
• Never leave smthce burners unattended
at high flame settings, l_)ilover causes
smoking and g_easy spillovers that m W
catch on fire.
• Adjust the mp burner flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the
(:ookware. Excessive flame is hazar, Mus.
• Use only dU pot holders-moist or damp
pot hoMers on hot smihces m W result in
bums fl_ml steam. Do not let pot holders
come near open flames when lifting
cookx_le. Do not use a tox_l or other
bulky clofll in place of a pot holder.
• To minimize the possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage, turn cookware handles toward the
side or back of file range without extending
over a(!jacent burners.

openings are located at the rear of the
cooktop, at dm top and bottom of the oven
door, and at the bottom of the range under
the broiler drinker.
• Foods for flying shouM be as (hT as
possible. Frost on fiozen foods or moisture
on flesh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over sides of the pan.
• Use least possible amount of fat fbr effective
shallow or deep4at fiTing. Filling the pan
too fhll of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.

items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst.
