IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(continued)

c Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on the door, storage drawer, kick panel or cooktop. They could damage the range and even tip it over, causing severe personal injury.

●Let the burner grates and other surfaces cool before touching them or leaving them where children can reach them.

s Never wear loose fitting or hanging garments

while using the appliance. Be careful when reaching for items stored in cabinets over the range. Flammable material could be ignited if brought in contact with flame or hot oven surfaces and may cause severe burns.

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

4$ A“‘ !’ ● Do not use water on grease fires.

Never pick up a flaming pan.

&Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface burner by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or fiat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.

Flaming grease outside 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 leave children alone or unattended

where a range is hot or in operation. They could be seriously burned.

●Teach children not to play with the controls

or any other part of the range.

●Never leave the oven door open when you are not

watching the range.

●Always keep combustible wall coverings? curtains or drapes a safe distance from your range.

●Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, potholders and other linens a safe distance from your range.

●Always keep wooden and plastic utensils and canned food a safe distance away from your range.

●Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use.

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

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

●When cooking pork, follow the directions exactly

and always cook the meat to an internal 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.

Surface Cooking

●Always use the LITE position when igniting the surface burners and make sure the burners have

ignited.

●Never leave surface burners unattended at

high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire.

●Adjust the surface burner flame size so it does not extend beyond the edge of the cookware.

Excessive flame is hazardous.

●Use only dry potholders-moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces

may result in burns from steam. Do

not let pot holders come near open flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder. Such cloths can catch fire on a hot surface burner.

●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 off before removing the cookware.

●Carefully watch foods being fried at a high

flame setting. —
