To Prevent Fire or
Smoke Damage
Be sure all packing materials are removed from the
appliance before operating it.
Keep area around appliance clear and free from
combustible materials.
Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away
from parts of the appliance that may become warm
or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop as
they may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a
lighted surface burner.
To prevent grease fires, do not let cooking grease or
other flammable materials accumulate in or near the
appliance.
If appliance is installed near a window, proper
precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from
blowing over burners.
NEVER leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air from
the vent may ignite flammable items and may increase
pressure in closed containers which may cause them to
burst.
Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when
exposed to heat and may be highly flammable. Avoid
their use or storage near an appliance.
To eliminate the hazard of reaching over hot surface
burners, cabinet storage should not be provided
directly above a unit. If storage is provided, it should be
limited to items which are used infrequently and which
are safely stored in an area subjected to heat from an
appliance. Temperatures may be unsafe for some items,
such as volatile liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.
In Case of Fire
Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to avoid
spreading the flame. Extinguish flame, then turn on
hood to remove smoke and odor.
• Cooktop: Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid or
cookie sheet.
• NEVER pick up or move a flaming pan.
Do not use water on grease fires. Use baking soda, a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher to smother fire
or flame.
Child Safety
NEVER store items of interest to children in cabinets
above an appliance or on backguard of a range.
Children climbing on the appliance door to reach items
could be seriously injured.
NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the
appliance when it is in use or is still hot. Children should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the
appliance as they could be injured or burned.
Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils in
it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of
reach of small children. Children should be taught that an
appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to
play with controls or other parts of the appliance.
