•Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface burners – To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent surface burners.

•Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings – Boil-overs cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

•Protective liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line surface burner pans or oven bottom, except as suggested in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.

•Glazed cooking utensils – Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cook-top service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacture’s recommendations for cook-top use.

•Do not heat unopened food containers – Build-up of pressure may cause container to burst and result in injury.

•Keep oven vent ducts unobstructed - The oven vent is located is located below the back guard. Touching the surfaces in this area when the oven is operating may cause severe burns. Also, do not place plastic or heat-sensitive items on or near the oven vent. These items could melt or ignite.

•Placement of oven racks – Always place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, use extreme caution. Use potholders and grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Remove all utensils from the rack before moving.
