fire with a pan lid, or use baking soda, a dry chemical
or foam-type extinguisher.
When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or
grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.
Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with one or
more surface burners of different sizes.Select utensils having
flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface burner. The
use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of tile surface
burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Proper relationship of utensil to the surface burner will also
improve efficiency.
tn case of fire or gas leak, be sure to turn
off the main gas shutoff vatve.
Use only dry potholders--Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let
potholders touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder.

oven may begin to operate again. Food left unattended could
catch fire or spoil.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not ex-
tend over adjacent surface burners--To reduce the risk of
burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to
unintentional contact with the utensil. Tile 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.
