IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Check to be sure glass cooking utensils
are safe for use on the range. Only
certain types of glass, glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktops without
breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature.
• Never leave surface burners unattended
at high heat settings. A boilover could
result and cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that could ignite.
•Turn pan handles inward, but not over
other surface burners. This will help
reduce the chance of burns, igniting of
flammable materials, and spills due to
bumping of the pan.
• Do not use decorative covers or trivets
over the surface burners.
When using the oven___________
• Always position the oven rack(s) in
desired location while oven is cool.
• Use care when opening oven door. Let
hot air or steam escape before removing
or replacing food.
Grease________________________
•Grease is flammable. Do not allow
grease to collect around cooktop or in
vents. Wipe spillovers immediately.
' Do not use water on grease fires. Never
pick up a flaming pan. Smother flaming
pan by covering with a well-fitted lid,
cookie sheet or flat tray. Flaming grease
outside of pan :an be extinguished with
baking soda or if available, a multipur­
pose dry chem cal or foam-type
extinguisher.
