check that the burner has lit. Then adjust the ame so it
does not extend beyond the edge of the pot/pan.
• Cleantheapplianceregularlytokeepallpartsfreeof
grease that could catch re. Exhaust fan ventilation
hoods and grease lters should be kept clean. Do not
allow grease to accumulate on hood or lter. Greasy
deposits in the fan could catch re. When cooking food,
turnthehoodfanon.Refertohoodmanufacturer’s
instructions for cleaning.
• Pot/pan handles should be turned inward and not
extend over adjacent surface burners. To reduce the
risk of burns, ignition of ammable materials, and
spillage due to unintentional contact with the pot/pan,
the handle of the utensil should be positioned so that
it is turned inward, and does not extend over adjacent
surface burners.
• Neverleavesurfaceburnersunattendedathighheat
settings. Boilovers cause smoke and greasy spillovers
that may ignite, or a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
• Donotusealuminumfoiltolineanypartofthe
appliance. Use aluminum foil only to cover food during
cooking. Improper installation of these liners may result
in risk of electric shock or re.
