@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 may 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 utensils approved for oven use. Follow utensil manufacturer’s instructions, especially when using glass or plastic utensils.

ADO not store flammable materials on or near the range. The fumes can create an explosion and/or fire hazard.

When using the cooktota

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

ADO not line reflector bowls with aluminum foil or other liners.

Improper installation of these liners may result in a risk of elec- tric 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 may result in the igniting of clothing or pot holders. Correct pan size also improves cooking efficiency.

@Check to be sure glass cooking utensils are safe for use on the range. Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen- ware, or other glazed utensils are suitable 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 may ignite.

l Turn pan handles inward, but not over other surface units. This will help reduce the chance of burns, igniting of flammable materials, and spills due to bumping of

the pan.
