Range Safety

•Do not operate the range if it is damaged or not working properly.

•Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the range. They could ignite if they touch a hot surface unit and you could be burned.

•Use only dry pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces could result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth for a pot holder. It could catch on fire.

•Keep range vents unobstructed.

•Do not heat unopened containers. They could explode. The hot contents could cause burns

and container particles could cause injury.

•Use only cookware approved for oven use. Follow cookware manufacturer’s instructions, especially when using glass or plastic cookware.

•Do not store flammable materials on or near the range. The fumes could create an explosion and/or fire hazard.

•Do not repair or replace any part of the range unless specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

•Disconnect the electrical supply before servicing the range.

When using the cooktop

•Make sure the reflector bowls are in place during cooking. Cooking without reflector bowls could sub- ject the wiring and components underneath them to damage.

•Do not line reflector bowls with aluminum foil or other liners. Improper installation of these liners could result in a risk of electrical shock or fire.

•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 heating element will be exposed and could result in the igniting of clothing or pot holders. Correct pan size also improves cooking efficiency.

•Check to be sure glass cookware is safe for use on the range. Only certain types of glass, glass- ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are suit- able for cooktops without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature.

•Never leave surface units unat- tended at high heat settings. A boilover could result and cause smoking and greasy spillovers that could ignite.
