Important Safety Information
Always have a working smoke detector near the kitchen. In the event that personal clothing or hair catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames. Have an appropiate fire extinguisher available, nearby, highly
visible and easily accesible near the appliance.
Smother flames from food fires other than grease fires with baking soda. Never use water on cooking fires.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:*
•
Smother flames with a close fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray, then turn off the burner. Be careful to
prevent burns. If the flames do not go out immediately, evacuate and call the fire department.
•
Never pick up a flaming pan – you may get burned.
•
Do not use water, including dishcloths or towels – a violent steam explosion will result.
•
Use an extinguisher only if:
a) You have a class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
b) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
c) The fire department is being called.
d) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
*Based on “kitchen Fire Safety tips” published by NFPA
Whenever possible, do not operate the ventilation system during a cooktop fire. However, do not reach through
fire to turn it off.
