R ange Safety
• Do not operate the range if it is
damaged or not working properly.
•Do not wear loose or hanging
garments when using the
range. They could ignite if they
touch a hot surface unit and
you could be burned.
•Use only dry pot holders. Moist
or damp pot holders on hot
surfaces could result in burns
from steam. Do not let pot holder
touch hot heating elements. Do
not use a towel or bulky cloth for
a pot holder. It could catch on fire.
•Keep range vents unobstructed.
•Do not heat unopened containers.
They could explode. The hot
contents could cause burns
and container particles could
cause injury.
•Use only cookware approved for
oven use. Follow cookware
manufacturer’s instructions,
especially when using glass or
plastic cookware.
•Do not store flammable materials
on or near the range. The fumes
could create an explosion and/or
fire hazard.
•Do not repair or replace any part
of the range unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All
other servicing should be referred
to a qualified technician.
•Disconnect the electrical supply
before servicing the range.
When using the cooktop
•Make sure the reflector bowls are
in place during cooking. Cooking
without reflector bowls could sub-
ject the wiring and components
underneath them to damage.
•Do not line reflector bowls with
aluminum foil or other liners.
Improper installation of these
liners could result in a risk of
electrical shock or fire.
•Select a pan with a flat bottom
that is about the same size as
the surface unit. If pan is smaller
than the surface unit, some of the
heating element will be exposed
and could result in the igniting of
clothing or pot holders. Correct
pan size also improves cooking
efficiency.
•Check to be sure glass cookware
is safe for use on the range. Only
certain types of glass, glass-
ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed cookware are suit-
able for cooktops without breaking
due to the sudden change in
temperature.
•Never leave surface units unat-
tended at high heat settings. A
boilover could result and cause
smoking and greasy spillovers
that could ignite.
