●
Do not touch heating elements.
These
surfaces may be hot enough
to burn even though they are
dark in color. During and after
use, do not touch, or let clothing
or other flammable materials
contact surface units or areas
nearby surface units; allow
sufilcient time for cooling, first.
Potentially hot surfaces include
the cooktop and areas facing the
Coolctop.
● When cooking pork, follow
our directions exactly and always
cook the meat to at least
170°F,
This assures that, in the remote
possibility that trichina may be
present in the meat, it will be
killed and the meat will be safe
to eat.
● Use proper pan size-This
appliance is equipped with two
surface units of different size.
Select utensils having flat
bottoms large enough to cover
the surface unit heating element.
The use of undersized utensils
will expose a portion of the
heating element to direct contact
and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to burner will also
improve efficiency.
●
Never leave surface units
unattended at high heat s&iugs.
Boilover
causes smoking and
greasy
spillovers
that may catch
on fire.
● Be sure drip pans are not
covered and are in place.
Their
absence during cooking could
damage range parts and wiring.
