Ventilating Hoods
Clean range hood and filters frequently to prevent grease
or other flammable materials from accumulating on hood
or filter and to avoid grease fires.
When flaming foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Cleaning Safety
Clean cooktop with caution. Turn off all controls and wait
for appliance parts to cool
before
touching or cleaning.
Use care to avoid steam burns if a wet sponge or cloth is
used to wipe spills on a hot surface. Some cleaners can
produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Clean only parts listed in this guide.
Important Safety Notice
and Warning
The California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) requires the
Governor of California to publish a list of substances
known to the State of California to cause cancer or
reproductive harm, and requires businesses to warn
customers of potential exposures to such substances.
Users of this appliance are hereby warned that when
the oven is engaged in the self-clean cycle, there may
be some low-level exposure to some of the listed
substances, including carbon monoxide. Exposure to
these substances can be minimized by properly venting
the oven to the outdoors by opening the windows and/or
door in the room where the appliance is located during
the self-clean cycle.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PET BIRDS:
Never
keep pet birds in the kitchen or in rooms where the
fumes from the kitchen could reach. Birds have a very
sensitive respiratory system. Fumes released due to
overheated cooking oil, fat, margarine and overheated
non-stick cookware may be equally harmful.
Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for
cooktop or oven service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature. Follow utensil
manufacturer’s instructions when using glass.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into
the room or over another surface element. This reduces
the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or
spillage if pan is accidently bumped or reached by small
children.
Be sure utensil is large enough to properly contain food and
avoid boilovers. Pan size is particularly important in deep fat
frying. Be sure pan will accommodate the volume of food that
is to be added as well as the bubble action of fat.
Never
let a pan boil dry as this could damage the utensil and
the appliance.
Cooktop
NEVER
leave surface units unattended, especially when
using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause
smoking and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different sized surface
elements. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to
cover element. Fitting pan size to element will improve
cooking efficiency.
GLASS-CERAMIC SURFACE: NEVER
cook on a broken
cooktop. If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and
spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a
risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
Deep Fat Fryers
Use extreme caution when moving the grease pan or
disposing of hot grease. Allow grease to cool
before
attempting to move pan.
