•
Never leave surface units unat-
tended at high heat settings. A
boilover could result and cause
smoking and greasy spillovers
that could ignite.
•
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
•
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 pot
holder contact hot heating ele-
ments in oven.
•
Use care when opening oven
door. Let hot air or steam
escape before removing or
replacing food.
Grease
•
Grease is flammable. Do not
allow grease to collect around
cooktop or in vents. Wipe spill-
overs immediately.
– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –
•
Do not use water on grease
fires. Never pick up a flaming
pan. Smother flaming pan on
range by covering with a well-
fitting lid, cookie sheet, or flat
tray. Flaming grease outside of
pan can be extinguished with
baking soda or, if available, a
multipurpose dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
Care and cleaning
•
Do not soak removable heating
elements in water. The element
will be damaged and shock or
fire could result.
•
Do not clean door heat seal. It is
essential for a good seal. Care
should be taken not to rub,
damage, or move the seal.
Clean only parts recommended
in this Use and Care Guide.
•
Do not repair or replace any part
of the range unless specifically
recommended in this manual. All
other servicing should be re-
ferred to a qualified technician.
•
Disconnect the electrical supply
before servicing the range.
