before turning it on. Be sure you know
which knob controls which surface burner.
Make sure the correct burner is turned on
and that the burner hasignited. When cool<-
ing is completed, turn burner off before
removing panto preventexposure to burner
flame.
Always adjust surface burner flame so that
it does not extend beyond the bottom edge
of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous,
wastes energy and may damage the appli-
ance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.
NEVER leavea surface cooking operation
unattended especially when using a high
heatsettingorwhen deepfat frying.Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers may
ignite. Clean up greasy spills as soon as
possible. Do not usehighheat for extended
cooking operations.
NEVER heat an unopened container on
the surface burner or in the oven. Pressure
build-up may cause the container to burst
resulting in serious personal injury or dam-
ageto the appliance.
Use dry, sturdy potho[ders. Damp pot-
holders may cause burns from steam.
Dishtowelsor other substitutesshould never
be usedaspotho[ders becausethey can trail
across hot surfaceburners andignite orget
caught on appliance parts.
Always let quantities of hot fat usedfor deep
fat fryingcoo[ before attempting to move or
handle.
Do not let cooking grease or other flam-
mable materials accumulate in or near the
appliance, hood or vent fan. Clean hood
frequently to prevent greasefrom accumu-
lating on hood or filter. When flamingfoods
under the hood turn the fan on.
NEVERwear garments madeof flammable
material or loose fitting or long-sleeved
apparel while cooking. Clothing may ignite
or catch utensil handles.
Always place oven racks in the desired posi-
tions while oven is cool. Slideoven rack out
to add or remove food, using dry, sturdy
potho[ders. Always avoid reaching into the
oven to addor remove food. Ifa rack must be
movedwhile hot, useadry potho[der. Always
turn the oven off at the end of cooking.
Use care when opening the oven door. Let
hot air or steam escape before moving or
replacing food.
PREPARED FOOD WARNING: Follow
food manufacturer's instructions. If a plastic
frozen food container and/or its cover dis-
torts, warps, or isotherwise damagedduring
cooking, immediatelydiscard the food and its
container. The food could be contaminated.

are easily grasped and stay coo[. Avoid using
unstable, warped, easily tipped or loose-

cially small pans, with heavy handles as they
could be unstable and easily tip. Pansthat are
heavy to move when filled with food may also
be hazardous.
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers. Pan size is
particularly important in deep fat frying. Be
sure pan will accommodate the volume of
food that is to beadded aswell asthe bubble
action of fat.
To minimize burns, ignition of flammable
materials and spillage due to unintentional
contactwith the utensil, do not extend handles
over adjacent surface burners. Always turn
pan handles toward the side or back of the
appliance, not out into the room where they
are easily hit or reached by small children.
Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage
the utensil and the appliance.
Follow the manufacturer's directions when
using oven cooking bags.
Only certain types of glass,glass/ceramic,
ceramic or glazed utensils are suitable for
