IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

• Do not use water on grease ﬁ res. Never pick up a ﬂ aming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a ﬂ aming pan on a

surface element by covering the pan completely with a well-ﬁ tting lid, cookie sheet or ﬂ at tray. Use a multi-purpose dry

chemical or foam-type ﬁ re extinguisher.

• If there is a ﬁ re in the oven during baking, smother the ﬁ re by closing the oven door and turning the oven off, or by

using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type ﬁ re extinguisher.

• If there is a ﬁ re in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the ﬁ re to go out. Do not force the door

open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of ﬂ ame from the oven. Failure to follow

this instruction may result in severe burns.

WARNING

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS

TO PREVENT THE FIRE FROM SPREADING

• Never leave the range unattended while a surface element is ON. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that

may catch on ﬁ re.

• Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in ﬁ re that

may spread to surrounding cabinets. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature.

• To avoid oil spillover and ﬁ re, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods

with excessive amounts of ice.

• Use proper pan size - select cookware having ﬂ at bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element.

The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion of the element to direct contact and may result in ignition of

clothing. Proper relationship of cookware to surface heating element will also improve efﬁ ciency.

• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service;

others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.

• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of ﬂ ammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be

turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby heating elements.

• When preparing ﬂ aming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.

• If power is lost to an electric cooktop while a surface element is ON, the surface element will turn back on as soon as

power is restored. In the event of power loss, failure to turn all surface element knobs to the OFF position may result

in ignition of items on or near the cooktop, leading to serious injury or death.
