IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
•
Never leave the range unattended
while a surface burner is ON. Foods, especially oily foods, may ignite resulting in
fi
re that could spread to surrounding cabinets.
•
Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in
fi
re that
may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
•
To avoid oil spillover and
fi
re, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods
with excessive amounts of ice.
•
Use proper pan size and avoid pans that are unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware that is matched to the size
of the burner. Burner
fl
ames should be adjusted so that they do not extend beyond the bottom of the pan. Excessive
fl
ames
may be hazardous.
•
Always use the LITE position when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.
•
When using glass/ceramic cookware, make sure it is suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of
sudden changes in temperature.
•
To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of
fl
ammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be
turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby burners.
• When
preparing
fl
aming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.
•
Do not use a wok with a round metal support ring. The ring may trap heat and block air to the burner resulting in a
carbon monoxide hazard.
•
Do not attempt to lift the cooktop if your range has sealed surface burners. Doing so may damage the gas tubing to
the surface burners resulting in a gas leak and risk of
fi
re.
•
Do not use aluminum foil to cover the grates or line any part of the cooktop. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning, overheating of the cooktop surfaces, or a potential
fi
re hazard.
