Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The
use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the
surface unit to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface unit will
also improve efficiency.
■
Never leave the surface
units unattended at
high heat settings.
Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy
spillovers that may
catch on fire.
■
Do not use aluminum
foil to line the drip pans
or anywhere in the oven
except as described in
this manual. Misuse
could result in a shock,
fire hazard or damage
to the range.
■
Be sure the drip pans
and the vent duct are
not covered and are in
place. Their absence
during cooking could
damage range parts
and wiring.
■
Only certain types of
glass, glass ⁄ceramic,
earthenware or other
glazed containers are
suitable for cooktop
service; others may
break because of the
sudden change in
temperature.
■
To minimize the
possibility of burns,
ignition of flammable
materials and spillage,
the handle of a
container should be
turned toward the
center of the range
without extending over
nearby surface units.
■
Always turn the surface
units off before
removing cookware.
■
Do not immerse or soak
the removable surface
units. Do not put them
in a dishwasher. Do not
self-clean the surface
units in the oven.
■
When flaming foods
are under the hood,
turn the fan off. The
fan, if operating, may
spread the flame.
■
To avoid the possibility
of a burn or electric
shock, always be certain
that the controls for all
surface units are at the
OFF
position and all
coils are cool before
attempting to lift or
remove a unit.
