IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING
■ Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a
flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming
pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely
with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use
a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
■
If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the
fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or
by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
WARNING
■
Never leave the surface units unattended at medium or
high heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may catch on fire.
■ Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to
heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting
in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a
deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil
temperature.
■ To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of
oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen
foods with excessive amounts of ice.
■
bottoms large enough to cover the surface 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.

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING
STEPS TO PREVENT THE FIRE FROM SPREADING:
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■ If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the
oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force
the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean
temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the
oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
severe burns.
■
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.
■ When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the
fan on.
■ If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface
unit is ON, the surface unit will turn back ON as soon
as power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure
to turn all surface unit knobs to the OFF position may
result in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading
to serious injury or death.
