IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING
WARNING
IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS
TO PREVENT THE FIRE FROM SPREADING
• Do not use water on grease fi res. Never pick up a fl aming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a fl aming pan on a
surface element by covering the pan completely with a well-fi tting lid, cookie sheet or fl at tray. Use a multi-purpose dry
chemical or foam-type fi re extinguisher.
• If there is a fi re in the oven during baking, smother the fi re by closing the oven door and turning the oven off, or by
using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fi re extinguisher.
• If there is a fi re in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fi re to go out. Do not force the door
open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of fl ame from the oven. Failure to follow
this instruction may result in severe burns.
WARNING
COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Never leave the range unattended while a surface element is ON. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may catch on fi re.
• Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fi re that
may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.
• To avoid oil spillover and fi re, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods
with excessive amounts of ice.
• Use proper pan size - select cookware having fl at bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element.
The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the element to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface heating element will also improve effi ciency.
• 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 fl ammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be
turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby heating elements.
• When preparing fl aming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.
• If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface element is ON, the surface element will turn back on as soon as
power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure to turn all surface element knobs to the OFF position may result
in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury or death.
