SURFACE COOKING UNITS
1.
Use Proper Pan Size—This appliance is equipped
with one or more surface units of different size. Select
utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit heating element. The use of undersized
utensils will expose a portion of the heating area to
direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing.
Use of oversized utensils concentrates heat on
cooking surface and can cause damage to range.
Proper relationship of utensil to surface element
improves efficiency.
2.
Never Leave Surface Units Unattended—Boilover
causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
3.
Protective Liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line
oven bottom. Improper installation of these liners may
result in a risk of electrical shock, or fire.
4.
Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of
glass, ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils
are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due
to sudden change in temperature.
5.
Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extend Over Adjacent Surface Units—To reduce the
risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil,
the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it
is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface units.
GLASS/CERAMIC COOKING SURFACES
1.
Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop—If cooktop should
break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of
electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
2.
Clean Cooktop With Caution—If a wet sponge or cloth
is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area, be
careful to avoid to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners
can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
