IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Save these instructions for future reference.
Use the Right Size Pan
This range is equipped with cooktop elements
of diff erent sizes.
Use cookware with fl at bottoms large enough
to cover the heating element (marked with a
ring on the cooktop). The use of undersized
cookware will expose a portion of the heating
element to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Using the proper size
cookware will also improve effi
ciency.
Do not use unstable pans.
Never Leave a pan unattended at high settings.
Pans boiling over can cause smoking and
greasy spills may catch on fi re.
Do not use aluminum foil on the cooktop.
Glazed Cooking Utensils - Only certain types of
glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware,
or other glazed utensils are suitable for
range-top use without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and
not over adjacent elements. If handles are
left over adjacent elements they will get hot
and may burn.
Ovens

Let hot air and steam escape before
removing or replacing food.
Never heat unopened food containers. Pressure
build up may make container burst and

Placement of Oven Racks
Always place oven racks in desired location
while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while
oven is hot, do not let a potholder contact hot
heating elements in oven.
Protective Liners - Do not use aluminum foil to
line oven bottoms. Foil liners may result in a
risk of electric shock, or fi re and will damage
the enamel fi nish. Never allow aluminum foil
to contact the heating elements.
