The exhaust fan in your oven
will operate automatically
under certain conditions (see
Automatic Fan Feature, page
6). While the fan is operating,
caution is required to prevent
the
stirting
and spreading of
accidental cooking fires while
the exhaust fan is in use. For
this reason:
–Never
leave
surface
uniti
unattended at high heat settings.
Boilover
causes smoking and
greasy
spillovers
that may ignite
and spread if exhaust fan is
operating. To minimize automatic
fan operation, use adequate sized
utensils and use high heat settings
only when necessary.
—In the event of a grease
fire,
smother flaming pan on surface
unit by covering pan completely
with well-fitting lid, cookie sheet
or
flat
tray.
—Never
flame
foods under
the oven with the exhaust fan
operating because it may spread
the flames.
–Wep
hood and
grease
filters
clean, according to instructions on
pages 15 and 17, to maintain good
venting and avoid grease fires.
