IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Use only dry pot holders
—moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holders come near
open flames when lifting cookware. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a
pot holder.
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials and spillage, turn
cookware handles toward the side or center of
the cooktop without extending over adjacent
burner or vent area.
• Always turn the surface burners to OFF
before removing the cookware.
• Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan.
• Use least possible amount of fat for effective
shallow or deep-fat frying.
Filling the pan too
full of fat can cause spillovers when food is
added.
• Carefully watch foods being fried at high
flame setting.
• 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.
• Use proper pan size —avoid pans that are
unstable or easily tipped. Select cookware
having flat bottoms large enough to properly
contain food and avoid boilovers and
spillovers, and large enough to cover burner
grate. This will both save cleaning time and
prevent hazardous accumulations of food,
since heavy spattering or spillovers left on
cooktop can ignite. Use pans with handles
that can be easily grasped and remain cool.
• Keep all plastics away from burners.
• To avoid the possibility of a burn, always be
certain that the controls for all burners are at
the off position and all grates are cool before
attempting to remove a grate.
• If the cooktop is located near a window,
do not use long curtains which could blow
over the burners and create a fire hazard.
• If you smell gas, turn off the gas to the
cooktop and call a qualified service
technician. Never use an open flame to locate
a leak.
• Do not cover or block the area around the
cooktop knobs. This area must be kept clear
for proper ventilation and burner
performance.
• Cook meat and poultry thoroughly —meat to
at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these
temperatures usually protects against
foodborne illness.
