Whirlpool RF330PXD Range User Manual


 
*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 ele-
ments. Do not use a towel or
bulky cloth for a pot holder. It
could catch on fire.
l
Keep range vents unobstructed.
.Do not heat unopened contain-
ers. They could explode. The
hot contents could cause burns
and container particles could
cause injury.
@Use only utensils approved for
oven use. Follow utensil
manufacturer’s instructions,
especially when using glass or
plastic utensils.
@Do not store flammable materials
on or near the range. The fumes
could create an explosion and/or
fire hazard.
When using the cooktop
l Make sure the reflector bowls
are in place during cooking.
Cooking without reflector bowls
could subject the wiring and
components underneath them
to damage.
ADO not line reflector bowls with
aluminum foil or other liners. Im-
proper installation of these liners
could result in a risk of electric
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 cooking
utensils are safe for use on the
range. Only certain types of glass,
glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen-
ware, or other glazed utensils are
suitable 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.
@Turn pan handles inward, but not
over other surface units. This will
help reduce the chance of burns,
igniting of flammable materials,
and spills due to bumping of
the pan.
