Until you get used to the setting, use the following as a guide. For best results, start cooking at the high setting; then turn the control knob down to continue cooking.

In case of a prolonged power failure

Surface burners with electric ignitors can be manually lighted. Hold a lit match near a burner and slowly turn the control knob on until the burner lights. After the burner lights, turn the

control knob to the desired setting. Power failures will not affect standing pilots. Do not attempt to operate an electric ignition oven during a power failure.

Burn, Fire, Explosion and

Product Damage Hazard

l Burner flame should not extend beyond the edge of the cooking utensil. The flame can burn you and cause poor cooking resutts.

l Be sure all control knobs are turned to OFF when you are not cooking. Someone could be burned or a fire could start if a burner is accidentally left ON.

l If the flame should go out while cooking, or if there is a strong gas odor, turn the burners OFF. Wait five minutes for the gas odor to disappear before relighting burner. If gas odor is still present, see safety note on page 3. Failure to follow these precau- tions could result in explosion or fire.

l Do not leave an empty utensil, or one which has boiled dry, on a hot surface burner. The utensil can overheat and may damage the utensil or cooking product.

Cookware tips

There is no one brand of cooking utensil that is best for all people. Knowing something about pan materials and construction will help you select the correct cooking utensils for your needs.

lNOTE: For best results and greater fuel efficiency, use only flat-bottomed utensils that make good contact with the surface burners. Utensils with rounded, warped, ridged (porce- lain enamel-ware)or dented bottoms could cause severe overheating, which damages the utensil and/or surface burner.

Woks, canners and teakettles with flat bottoms suitable for use on your cooktop are now available in most stores that sell housewares.

l The pan should have straight sides and a tight- fitting lid.

l Choose medium to heavy gauge (thickness) pans that are fairly lightweight.

l The pan material (metal or glass) affects how fast heat transfers from the surface burners through the pan material and how evenly heat spreads over the pan bottom. Choose pans that provide the best cooking results.

l Handles should be made of a sturdy, heat- resistant material and be securely attached to the pan.

l Pans should be easy to clean. Check to be sure there are no crevices, rough edges or areas where food might collect.

lBe sure pans do not tip, whether they are full or empty.

l Use utensils only as they were intended to be used. Follow pan instructions. This is very important for glass cookware because some should be used only in the oven. Other pans are marked as flameware and may be used on the surface burners.
