Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming pan on cooktop by covering with a well-fitted 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.

Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heat- ing elements. Do not use a towel or

bulky cloth for a ,potholder. They could catch o,-, f,re,

Select 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 heat- ing element will be exposed and may result in the igniting of clothing or potholders. Correct pan size also improves cooking efficiency.

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.

Check to be sure glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the cooktop. 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.

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.

Use care when opening oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before removing or replacing food.
