guidelines and safety standards such as those
published by the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA), and the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

Never leave surface units unattended at high
settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or
medium settings.
b)
Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when cooking flaming foods.
c)
Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not
be allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element.

1.
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid,
cookie sheet or metal tray, then turn off the
