l Do not store flammable mate- rials in or near the range. They could explode or burn.

lDo not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan on cook- top by covering with a well-fitted lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Flam- ing grease outside of pan can be extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipur- pose dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

l Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot sur-

faces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth for a pot- holder They could catch on fire.

lSelect a pan with a flat bottom that is about the same size as the surface unit. If pan is smaller than the surface unit, some of the heating element will be exposed and may result in the igniting of clothing or potholders. Correct pan size also improves cooking efficiency.

l Never leave surface units unat- tended at high heat settings. A boil-over could result and cause smoking and greasy spill-overs that may ignite.

l Make sure the reflector bowls are in place during cooking. Cooking without reflector bowls may subject the wiring and components underneath them to damage.

lDo not line reflector bowls with aluminum foil or other liners. Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.

lCheck to be sure glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cook-top. Only certain types of glass, glass ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktops without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

l 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.
