may melt or

soften

if left too close to a

lighted

surface

burner.

To eliminate the hazard of reaching over

hot surfaceburners, cabinet storage

should

not be provided directly above a unit. If

storage is provided, it should be limited to

itemswhich are usedinfrequently andwhich

are safely stored in an area subjected to

heat from an appliance.Temperatures may

be unsafe for some items,

such

as volatile

liquids, cleaners or aerosol sprays.

A faint gasodor may indicate a gasleak. If a

gasodor is detected, shut off gassupply to

the cooktop. Call your installer or local gas

companyto havethe possiblelea[<checked.

Never

use

a match

or other

flame to

locate

a gas leak.

IN

CASE

OF

FH E

Turn off appliance and ventilating hood to

avoid spreading the flame. Extinguish flame

then turn on hood to remove smoke and

odor.

• Smother fire or flame in a pan with a lid

or cookie sheet.

NEVER

pick up or move a flaming pan.

Do

not

use water

on

grease

fires.

Use

baking soda, a dry chemical

or foam-type

extinguisher

to smother

fire

or flame.

CHILD

SAFETY

NEVER

leave children alone or unsuper-

vised near the appliance when it is in use or

is still hot.

NEVER

allow children to sit or

stand

on

any part of the appliance as they could be

injured

or

burned.

Children must be taught that the appliance

and utensilson it canbe hot. Let hot utensils

coo[ in a safe place, out of reach of small

children. Children should be taught that an

applianceis not a toy. Children should not

be allowed to play with controls or other

parts

of

the unit.

CAUTION:

NEVER

store items of in-

terest to

children in cabinets above an

appliance. Children climbing on the appli-

ance to

reach items could be

seriously

injured.

ABOUT

YOUR

NEVER

use appliance as a space heater to

heat or warm

a room

to prevent

potential

hazard

to

the

user

and

damage

to

the

appliance. Also, do not use the cooktop

as

a storage area for food or cooking

utensils.

Do

not

obstruct

the flow

of combustion

and ventilation

air

by blocking

the

air in-

takes. Restriction

of air flow to the burner

prevents proper

performance

and increases

carbon monoxide

emission to unsafe levels.

Potentially

hot

surfaces

include cooktop

and areas facing the cooktop.

COOKING

SAFETY

Always place a pan on a surface burner

before turning it on. Be sure you know

which knob controls which surface burner.

Make

sure

the correct burner isturned on

and

that

the

burner

has

ignited.

When

cooking is completed,

turn burner

off be-

fore removing pan to prevent

exposure

to

burner

flame.

Always adjust surface burner

flame so that

it does not extend beyond the bottom edge

of the pan. An excessive flame is hazardous,

wastes

energy and may damage the appli-

ance, pan or cabinets above the appliance.

N EVE R leave a surface cooking operation

unattended

especially when

using a high

heat

setting

or

when

deep

fat

frying.

Boilovers

cause

smoking

and

greasy

spillovers

may ignite. Clean up greasy spills

as soon as possible. Do not use high heat for

extended

cooking operations.

NEVER

heat an unopened

container

on

the surface burner.

Pressure

build-up may

cause container

to burst

resulting in seri-

ous personal

injury or damage to the appli-

ance.

Use

dry, sturdy

potholders.

Damp

pot-

holders

may

cause

burns

from

steam.

Dishtowels

or

other

substitutes

should

never

be used as potholders

because they

can trail across

hot

surface

burners

and

ignite or get caught on appliance parts.

Always let quantities

of hot

fat used for

deep

fat frying cool

before

attempting

to

move or handle.

Do not let cooking grease

or other

flam-

mable materials accumulate

in or near the

cooktop. Clean frequently to prevent grease

from accumulating.

NEVER

wear

garments

made

of flam-

mable

material

or

loose

fitting or

long-

sleeved

apparel

while

cooking.

Clothing

may ignite or catch

utensil handles.

Do not

use aluminum foil to

line burner

basin. Restriction

of normal air flow may

result

in unsafe operation.

UTENSIL

SAFETY

Use pans with flat bottoms

and handles that

are easily grasped and staycoo[.Avoid

using

unstable,

warped,

easily tipped

or

loose-

handled pans. Also avoid using pans, espe-

cially small pans, with heavy handles as they

could be unstable

and easily tip. Pans that

are

heavy to

move when

filled with

food

may also be hazardous.

Be sure utensil is large enough

to

properly

contain food

and

avoid boilovers.

Pan

sizeis

particularly important

in

deep fat

frying. Be

sure

pan will accommodate

the volume

of

food that is to be added as well as the bubble

action of fat.

To

minimize burns,

ignition of flammable

materials

and spillage due to

unintentional

contact

with

the

utensil,

do

not

extend

handles over adjacent

surface

burners. Al-

ways turn

pan handles toward

the side or

back of the appliance, not out into the room

where they are easilyhit or reachedby small

children.

Never let a pan boil dry as this could damage

the utensil and the appliance.
