flammable or combustible materials such as paper,
plastic, pot holders, linens, curtains, gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids
near the cooktop.
•
Do not wear
loose fitting or hanging garments while using the cooktop.

water on a grease fire. To put out a grease fire, turn off the heat
source and smother the fire with a tight-fitting lid or use a multipurpose dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
