Important Safety Information
Save these instructions for future reference.
In the interests of hygiene and safety the range
should be kept clean at all times as a build up in
fats and other food stuff could result in a fire.
Always keep combustible wall coverings or
curtains etc. a safe distance away from your
range.
Do not spray aerosols in the vicinity of the range
while it is in use.
Do not store or use combustible materials,
or flammable liquids in the vicinity of this
appliance.
Take great care when heating fats and oils, as
they will ignite if they get too hot.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible
to prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking
point.
Never leave a deep fry pan unattended. Always
heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry
pans should be only one third full of fat. Filling
the pan too full of fat can cause spill over when
food is added. If you use a combination of oils or
fats in frying, stir them together before heating,
or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills
or overheating of foods when frying at high or
medium high temperatures. Never try to move
a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fry pan. Wait
until the fat is cool.
When the broiler is on, do not use the top of the
flue (the slot along the back of the range) for
warming plates, dishes, drying dish towels or
softening butter.

cooktop, be sure that the cord of the appliance
does not come into contact with the cooktop. Take care that no water seeps into the appliance
Make sure that your kitchen is well ventilated
at all times. Use extractor fans or hoods when
