Cookware handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent
surface burners. To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the cookware, the handle of a cookware
should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface burners.
Never leave the surface burners unattended.
Boilovers may cause smoking,
greasy spill-overs may catch fire or a pan which has boiled dry may melt.
Do not place hands between the spring tension hinge and the oven door
frame when you are removing the oven door. You could pinch your fingers.
Do not use the broiler pan without its insert. The broiler pan and its insert allow
dripping fat or grease to drain and be kept away from the high heat of the broiler.
Do not cover the insert with foil. Exposed fat or grease could ignite.
Allow parts to cool to room temperature before touching or removing them
from the range. When a surface burner is first turned off, the burner and grate are
hot enough to cause burns.
Clean the range regularly to keep all parts free of fat or grease, which could
catch fire.
Pay particular attention to the area underneath each surface burner.
Exhaust fan ventilating hoods and grease filters should be clean. Do not allow fat
or grease to accumulate. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. Refer to the
hood manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning.
Do not use a “cyclonic” range hood with this product. Some range hoods cir-
culate air by blowing downward toward the range top then drawing the air back up
into the hood. This creates a “cyclonic” air wash that is designed for electric ranges
only. A “cyclonic” hood may cause the burners of a gas range to operate improp-
erly.
Glazed cookware: Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthen-
ware, or other glazed cookware are suitable for rangetop service without breaking,
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions for rangetop use.
Do not place plastic salt and pepper shakers, spoon holders or plastic wrap-
pings on top of the range. These items could melt or ignite. Potholders, towels or
wooden spoons could catch fire if placed too close to the flame.
Do not use a wok equipped with a metal ring that extends beyond the burner.
Because this ring traps heat, the burner and grate could be damaged. Also, the
burner may not work properly, creating a carbon monoxide level above current
health standards.
Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.
Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
