READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
SURFACE BURNERS
Use proper pan size—avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware having flat
bottoms large enough to cover burner grates. To avoid spillovers, make sure cookware is large enough
to contain the food properly. 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 the Lite position when igniting the
top burners and make sure the burners have
ignited.
■ Never leave the surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.
■ Adjust the top burner flame size so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the
cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.
■ Use only dry pot holders—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. 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.
■ When using glass cookware, make sure it
is designed for top-of-range cooking.
■ To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or back of
the range without extending over adjacent
burners.
■ Carefully watch foods being fried at a high
flame setting.
■ Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
■ Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The
hot air from the vent may ignite flammable
items and will increase pressure in closed
containers, which may cause them to burst.
■ If a combination of oils or fats will be used in
frying, stir together before heating or as fats
melt slowly.
■ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the
smoking point.
■ Use the least possible amount of fat for
effective shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the
pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when
food is added.
■ Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do
flame foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
■ Do not use a wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is
placed over the burner grate to support
the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which
may damage the burner grate and burner
head. Also, it may cause the burner to work
improperly. This may cause a carbon
monoxide level above that allowed by current
standards, resulting in a health hazard.
