l
Use only dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders on hot surfaces
may result in burns from steam.
Do not let potholder touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a
towel or bulky cloth for a
potholder. It could catch on fire.
l
Keep range vents unobstructed.
l
Do not heat unopened containers.
They could explode. The hot
contents could cause burns and
container particles could cause
injury.
l
Do not store flammable materials
on or near the range. The fumes
can 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 may sub-
ject the wiring and components
underneath them to damage.
l
Do not line reflector bowls with
aluminum foil or other liners.
Improper installation of these
liners may result in a risk of elec-
tric shock or fire.
l
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 may result in the igniting of
clothing or potholders. Correct
pan size also improves cooking
efficiency.
l
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.
l
Never leave surface units unat-
tended at high heat settings. A
boilover could result and cause
smoking and greasy spillovers
that may ignite.
l
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.
When using the oven
l
Always position oven rack(s) in
desired location while oven is
cool. If a rack must be removed
while oven is hot, do not let
potholder contact hot heating
element in oven.
l
Use care when opening oven
door. Let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing
food.
