chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

= When heating fat or grease, watch it closely. Fat or

grease may catch fire if allowed to become too hot.

unattended could catch fire or spoil.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
COOKTOP

= Know which knob controls eachsurface heating unit.

UseProper FlameSize--Adjust flamesizeso

it doesnot extend beyond the edgeof the utensil. Theuseof

undersized utensils will exposea portion of the burner flame
todirect contact and may result inignition of clothing. Proper
relationship of utensil to flame wil! also improve efficiency.

o Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not

Extend Over Adjacent Surface Burners--To reduce the
risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage
due to unintentional contact with the utensil, the handleof

the utensilshould be positioned so that it isturned inward,
and doesnot extend over adjacent surface burners.

o Never Leave Surface Burners Unattended at High

Settings--Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spi!tovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.

• Protective Liners--Do not usealuminum foil to tine surface

glasslceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed

utensilsare suitable for rangetop servicewithout breaking

due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the

manufacturer's recommendations for rangetop use.

° Do Not Use Decorative Surface Burner Covers. If a

burner isaccidentally turned on, the decorative cover will
become hot and possiblymelt. You wilt not be able to see

that the burner ison. Burnswill occur if the hot covers are
touched. Damage may also be done to the cooktop or

burners becausethe coversmay causeoverheating. Air will
be blocked from the burner and cause combustion

problems.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING YOUR
OVEN
= Usecare When Opening Door--Stand to the sideof the

rangewhen opening the door of ahot oven. Let hot air or

steam escape before you remove or replace food in the

oven.

o Keep Oven Vent DuctsUnobstructed. Theoven isvented

below the backguard. Touching the surfaces in this area

when theovenisoperating maycausesevereburns. Also,do

not placeplasticor heat-sensitive itemson or nearthe oven

vent. Theseitems could melt or ignite.

NEVERcover any slots,holes or passages

in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with
materials suchas aluminum foil. Doingso blocksairflow

through the oven and maycausecarbon monoxide poisoning,
Aluminum foil liningsmay trap heat,causinga fire hazard.

o Placement of Oven Racks. Always place oven racks in

desired locationwhile oven is cool. If rack must be moved

while oven is hot, useextreme caution. Usepotholders and

grasp the rack with both hands to reposition. Do not let
potholders contact the ovenburnerfiameorinteriorofthe

oven. Removeall utensils from the rack before removing
rack.

IMPORTANT SAFETY mNSTRUCT ONS(continued)

= Do not use a broiler pan without its insert. Broirer pan

and grid allow dripping fat to drain and be kept away from
