●For your safetyf never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.

●Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a ffaming pan. Turn the cantrals aff. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a muIti-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flaming grease autside a pan can be put out by covering it with baking soda or, if available, by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flame in the oven can be smothered completely by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam- type fire extinguisher.

●Do not store flammable materhds in an oven, a range brafler or storage drawer or near a cooktop.

●DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTWLE MATERIALS, GASOL~E OR OTHER FLA~ABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN THE VIC~ITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER APPLIANCE.

●Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or nar the range.

●When cooking pork, follow the directions exactly and always cook tie meat to an intemd temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that, in the remote possibility that trichina may be present in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be safe to eat.

SHfi*ce CooMng

*Always use the LITE position (on el~tric ignition models) or the HI position (on standing pilot models) when igniting the top burners and make sure the burners have ignited.

*Never leav~ the surface burnem unattended at high flame settings. Bofiovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

●Adjust the top burner Bame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware. Excessive flame is hazardous.

●Use o~y dry pot holders—moist ar damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam.

*Do not let potholders come near open flames when ~ng cookware. Do not use a towel or other buky cloth in place of a pot holder.

*To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware handles toward the side or back of the range without extending over adjacent burners.

●Always turn the surface burners to off before removing cookware.

*Carefully wakh foods being fried at a high flame setting.

●N~ver block the vents (air openings} of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the tap and bottom of the oven door, and at the battom of the range under the broiler drawer or storage drawer.

*Do not use a wok on models with sealed burners if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring acts as a heat trap, which may damage the burner grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the burner to work improperly. This may cause a carbon monoxide level above that allowed by current standards, resulting in a health hazard.

●Foods for frying should be as dry as possible, Frost on frozen foods or maisture on fresh foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.

a Use the least possible amount of fat for eff~tive shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of fat can cause spillovers when food is added.

●Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
