Cooktop Safety Warnings
●
Do not place pans onto glass surface. Raise cover into full
open position before operating burners. Let cooktop cool
before closing glass cover.
●
If the cooktop is near a window, proper precautions should be
taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners creating
a fire hazard.
●
Do not leave children alone or unsupervised in area where
cooktop is being used. The top burners, burner grates and
other areas near the burners become hot enough to cause
severe burns.
●
Keep the appliance clean. The build-up of grease and food
boil-over and/or spillage can create a fire hazard.
●
Turn pan handles inward or toward back of cooktop and out
of the way of people walking past cooktop and/or out of the
reach of children. Do not turn handles to where they are over
the burners.
●
Never leave top burner(s) unattended.
–
For such reasons as down drafts that could be
created by opening and closing of cabinet doors
or doors within the RV or by positive or negative
air pressures affecting burners due to improper
installation. (See Installation section) The burner
could extinguish resulting in gas escaping into the
RV. Remember, gas flow to each burner is controlled
manually, you must turn gas flow "ON" and "OFF".
–
A boil over could occur and the spill could ignite.
●
Flame size
–
Never extend the flame beyond the outer edge of
the utensil. A higher flame simply wastes heat and
energy.
–
Correct flame size is determined by utensil size and
material, what you are cooking and whether or not
you are cooking with liquid.
●
To prevent damage to the cooktop, top burners, or top grate,
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Furrion
never operate a top burner without a pan in place. The top
burners, especially the high input burner, should not be
operated on high for an extended period of time. The high
setting should be used only to start the food cooking or to
bring liquids to a boil, then reduce the flame to a lower setting
to continue cooking. Use low flame setting to keep food warm.
Remember, a gas range heats quicker than an electric range
- experiment with various settings until you feel comfortable
cooking with gas.
●
Never use cookware which extends beyond 1" of the grate
(maximum pan size Ø 10"). Never place cooking utensil on
grate to where it rests over two operating top burners. This will
cause excessive heat buildup, which could result in damage to
the grate, top burner(s) and cooktop.
●
Verify sufficient gas supply before attempting to light any top
burner. Air in the gas supply line will significantly delay burner
ignition, and a burner may light unexpectedly as the air in the
line clears out and is replaced by LP gas, this unexpected
ignition may burn you. Air may be introduced into the supply
line when the vehicle gas bottle is replaced, during servicing of
other gas appliances, etc.
●
DO NOT touch top burners, burner grates, or other areas
near burners during and after use. Do not let clothing or other
flammable materials to contact burners or areas near burners
until they have had sufficient time to cool.
●
Make sure the utensils you use are large enough to contain
food and avoid boil overs and spillovers. Heavy splattering or
spillovers left on the cooktop can ignite and burn you.
●
Be sure that glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the
cooktop. Only certain kinds of glass utensils are suitable for
surface or top burner use without breaking due to the sudden
changes in temperature.
●
Grease is flammable. Never allow grease to collect around top
burners or on cooktop surface. Wipe spillovers immediately.
●
Use care when lighting a top burner by hand. If the burner
lights unexpectedly, or your hand is close to the burner, you
may be burned.
●
DO NOT drop pans on the porcelain surface. Cracks or chips
in the porcelain surface may result.
●
DO NOT leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry,
on a hot top burner. The utensil could overheat and damage
the utensil or the cooking appliance.
