When flaming foods are under the hood, turn

the fan off. The fan, if operating, may spread the

If a combination of oils or fats will be used in

frying, stir together before heating, or as fats
melt slowly.

● 

Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.

● 

Use a deep fat thermometer whenever

possible to prevent overheating fat beyond the

smoking point.

● 

Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a

deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.

● 

To avoid possible damage to the cooking

surface, do not apply Cook Top Cleaning 

to the glass surface when it is hot.

●
