SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A COOKTOP
GREASE FIRE:

Never leave surface units
unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Heat oils
slowly on low or medium settings.

Always turn hood ON when cooking
at high heat

(i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries
Jubilee, Peppercorn Beef Flambé).

Clean ventilating fans frequently.

Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on fan or filter.

Use proper pan size. Always use
cookware appropriate for the size of
the surface element.

or when flambéing food

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY
TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF
A GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING:

Smother flames with a close­fitting lid, baking sheet or other
metal tray, then turn off the gas
burner. Be careful to prevent
burns. If the flames do not go out
immediately, evacuate and call
the fire department.

Do not use water, including wet
dishcloths or towels—a violent
steam explosion will result.

Never pick up a flaming pan—
you may be bur

ned.
