IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
COOK MEAT AND POULTRY THOROUGHLY…
Cook meat and poultry thoroughly—meat to at least an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F. and poultry to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 180°F. Cooking to these temperatures usually protects against foodborne illness.
Use proper pan size—select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit 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.
■ Never leave the surface units unattended at high
heat settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may catch on fire.
■ Use little fat for effective shallow or deep fat frying.
Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers
when food is added.
■ If a combination of oils or fats will be used in frying,
stir together before heating, or as fats melt slowly.
■ Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
■ 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.
■ Always turn the surface units off before removing
cookware.
■ When preparing flaming foods under the vent hood,
turn the fan on.
■ Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to
prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
■ Keep an eye on foods being fried at high or medium
high heat settings.
■ Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost on
frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause
hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
■ Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air
from the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
■ Do not leave plastic or flammable items on the
cooktop—they may melt or ignite if left too close
to the vent.
