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 burner
flame to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to flame will also improve efficiency.
• Know which knob or key controls each
surface heating area. Place cookware
with food on the cooking area before
turning it on. Turn the cooking area off
before removing the cookware.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is
equipped with one or more surface units
of different sizes. Select cookware with
flat bottoms that match the surface unit
heating element. The use of undersized
cookware may expose a portion of the
flame to direct contact and may result in
the ignition of clothing or other items.
Using the proper cookware on the
cooking areas will improve efficiency.
• Always turn knob to the full LITE position
when igniting top burners. Visually check
that burner has lit. Then adjust the flame
so it does not extend beyond the edge of
the utensil.
• To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
flammable 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 — Boil overs cause
smoking and greasy spill overs that may
ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may
melt.
• Glazed cooking utensils — Only certain
types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable for cook top service without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for cook top use.
• When you are flaming foods under a
ventilating hood, turn the fan on.
• Do not cook food on the oven bottom.
Always cook in proper bakeware and
always use the oven racks.
• Do not cover the broiler insert with
aluminum foil. Exposed fat and grease
could ignite.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR OVEN
Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil,
aftermarket oven liners, or any other
materials or devices to line oven bottom,
oven racks, or any other part of the appli-
ance. Only use aluminum as recommended
for baking, such as lining cookware or as a
cover placed on food. Any other use of
protective liners or aluminum foil may result
in a risk of electric shock or fire or a short
circuit.
Use care when opening oven door, lower
oven door, or warmer drawer (some models).
Stand to the side of the appliance when
opening the door of a hot oven. Let hot air or
steam escape before you remove or replace
food in the oven.
Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed. Touching
surfaces in this area when the oven is on may
cause severe burns. Do not place plastic or
heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent.
These items can melt or ignite.
