● Be sure the drip pans and vent ducts are not
covered and are in place. Their absence during
cooking could damage range parts
● Do not use aluminum foil to line the drip pans
or anywhere in the oven except as described in
this book. Misuse could result in a shock, fire
hazard or damage to the range.

● Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
● Use deep fat thermometer whenever possible to
prevent overheating fat beyond the smoking point.
● Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a
deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
● Always turn surface unit to OFF before
removing cookware.
●
To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition
of flammable materials, and spillage, the handle
of a container should be turned toward the center
of the range without extending over nearby
surface units.
● To avoid the possibility of a burn or electric
shock,
surface units are at OFF position and all
always be certain that the controls for
coils

● Never clean the

and wet cloths could cause steam burns if used
