CAUTION
•
Use the rear burners for a small pan or pot with a bottom diameter of about 6 inches or less.
•
Do not use an oversized pan. The burner flames may spread out, causing damage nearby.
•
Always make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the cooktop and
not over other surface burners. This will minimize the chance of burns, spillovers, and the
ignition of flammable materials that can be caused if pots or pans are bumped accidently.
•
When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for range top cooking.
• Never leave
plastic items on the cooktop. Hot air from the vent can melt or ignite plastic
items or cause build up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers. You may get
severe burns if you touch the surfaces near the vent while the oven is operating.
•
Make sure you hold the handle of a wok or a small one-handled pot while cooking.
Griddle
The coated griddle provides an extra cooking surface. This is useful especially when cooking
meat, pancakes, or other foods requiring a large cooking area.
The griddle can be used only with the center
burner instead of the center grate. Use caution
when putting the griddle on the center burner.
In most cases, you should preheat the griddle before cooking. See the table below.
