• When cooking, set the burner controls so that the
flame heats only the bottom of the utensil and
does not overlap at the sides of the utensil.
• Utensils (pots & pans) that conduct heat slowly,
i.e. glass pots, should be used in conjunction
with burner flames at a low or medium setting.
• Turn off all controls and wait for appliance parts
to cool before touching or cleaning them.
• Do not touch the burner grates or surrounding
areas until they are cool.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
• Clean appliance with caution.
• Always turn pot handles to the side or back of the
range. Do not turn handles towards the area
where they are easily burned. Handles should
not extend over adjacent burners.
• Use range only for cooking tasks expected of a
home appliance as outlined in this manual.
• When using the cooktop, do not touch the grates,
burner caps, burner bases, or any other parts in
proximity to the flame. These components may
be hot enough to cause burns.
• Use dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on
hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do
not let potholder touch hot surface areas. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Build up
of pressure may cause the container to explode
and result in injury.
• During and after use, so not touch interior
surfaces of the oven until cool.
