Burn Prevention
English 2
• Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boilovers cause smoking
and greasy spillovers may ignite.
• WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:
1) Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or
medium settings.
2) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when flambéing food
(i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambe').
3) Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accu-
mulate on fan or filter.
4) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for the size of the
surface element.
• In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire, drop and roll immedi-
ately to extinguish flames.
• Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda.
Never use water on cooking fires.
• WARNING – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
1) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray,
then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the
flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
2) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN – You may be burned.
3) DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels – a violent
steam explosion will result.
Use an extinguisher ONLY if:
1) You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you
already know how to operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
3) The fire department is being called.
4) You can fight the fire with your back toward an exit.
• Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system during a cooktop
fire. However, do not reach through fire to turn it off.
• DO NOT TOUCH SURFACE UNITS OR AREAS NEAR UNITS - Surface
units may be hot even though they are dark in color. Areas near surface units
may become hot enough to cause burns. During and after use, do not touch,
or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materials contact surface units
or areas near units until they have had sufficient time to cool. Among these
areas are the cooktop and areas facing the cooktop.
• DO NOT TOUCH HEATING ELEMENTS OR INTERIOR SURFACES OF
OVEN - Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in color.
Interior surfaces of an oven become hot enough to cause burns. During and
after use, do not touch, or let clothing, potholders, or other flammable materi-
als contact heating elements or interior surfaces of oven until they have had
sufficient time to cool. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot
enough to cause burns. Among these surfaces are oven vent openings, sur-
faces near these openings and oven doors.
• Exercise caution when opening the appliance. Standing to the side, open the
door (or drawer) slowly and slightly to let hot air and/or steam escape. Keep
your face clear of the opening and make sure there are no children or pets
near the unit. After the release of hot air and/or steam, proceed with your
cooking. Keep doors shut unless necessary for cooking or cleaning purposes.
Do not leave open doors unattended.
• Do not heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up of pressure may
cause the container to burst and cause injury.
• Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If a rack must
be moved while oven is hot, do not let potholder contact the heating elements.
