HOW TO AVOID A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE FIRE
• Your range hood provides a protective barrier between the
cooking surface and the cabinets.
• Keep fan, filters and grease laden surfaces CLEAN according
to instructions.
• Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat to keep the
cooking area and the hood cooler.
• Use high heat settings only when necessary.
• Never leave cooking surface unattended. Boil-over causes
smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
• Always use adequate-sized utensils.
• If preparing flaming foods, such as Cherries Jubliee, always
turn hood ON to HIGH to prevent a high heat situation which
can cause damage or fire.
HOW TO EXTINGUISH A COMMON RANGE-TOP GREASE
FIRE
• Never pick up a flaming pan. If dropped flames can spread
quickly.
• DO NOT USE WATER! A violent stream explosion may result.
Wet dishcloths or towels are also dangerous.
• Smother flames with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet or metal
tray.
• Flaming grease can also be a extinguished with baking soda
or multi-purpose dry chemical extinguisher.
• Turn off surface units - if you can do so without getting burned.
