Page 6 highlights

16. DO NOT TOUCH THE COOKING SURFACE, THE BURNERS, GRATES OR ANY AREAS NEAR THEM. Surface burners on appliance may be hot. Areas near surface burners or appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. DO NOT touch or let clothing or other flammable materials touch these areas during or after use until it has had sufficient time to cool. 17. DO NOT wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. DO NOT let clothing or other flammable materials contact hot surfaces. 18. DO NOT use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Smother grease fires with a pan lid, baking soda, a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. 19. If there is a fire in the oven while baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher. 20. Use an extinguisher ONLY if: a. You know you have a Class A, B, C extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it. b. The fire is small and contained in the area where it is started. c. The fire department is being called. d. You can fight the fire with your back to an exit. 21. When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot. Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature. 22. To avoid spillovers and fires, use minimal amounts of oil when pan-frying in a shallow pan and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice. 23. Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. DO NOT let potholders touch hot heating elements, the flame or burners. DO NOT use a towel or other bulky cloth instead of a potholder. 24. DO NOT heat unopened food containers. Buildup of pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury. 25. Stepping, leaning or sitting on this appliance can result in serious injuries and also cause damage to the appliance. 26. DO NOT use this appliance as a space heater to heat or warm the room. 27. Know which knob controls which surface burner. The burner will begin to turn red when it is on, indicating it is heating up. 28. Clean the appliance regularly to keep all parts free of grease that could catch fire. Exhaust fan ventilation hoods and grease filters should be kept clean. DO NOT allow grease to accumulate on hood or filter. Greasy deposits in the fan could catch fire. When cooking food turn the hood fan on. Refer to hood manufacturer's instructions for cleaning. 29. 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. 30. Never leave surface burners unattended at high heat settings. Boil overs cause smoke and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt. 31. DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the appliance. Use aluminum foil only to cover food during cooking. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire. 32. Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for appliance service without breaking due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the manufacturer's recommendations for appliance use. 6
