WARNING: Use extreme care when lifting basket out of pan. Always grip pan handle with one hand while lifting basket with the other. Failure to do so could create a situation where you pull the pan off the burner spilling the contents onto yourself or someone else. Always hang basket directly over pan as illustrated. This allows hot liquid to drip back into the pan. Hanging the basket in any other way could cause the pan to tip over, spilling hot liquid. Always use hot pad to protect hands.
