RADIANTSURFACEUNITS
Use care when touching the cooktop. The
glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat
•after the controls have been turned oft
Keep an eye on foods being flied at high
or medium high heat settings.
Foods for flTing should be as dUas
possible. Frost on frozen foods or moisture
on flesh foods can cause hot fat to bubble
up and over the sides of the pan.
Use little fat for effective shallow or deep
fat flTing. Filling the pan too full of fat can
cause spillovers when food is added.
If a combination of oils or fats will be
used in flTing, stir together before heating,
or as fats melt slowly.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.

The cooktop can be scratched with items

jeweh T, and rivets on clothing.
Do not operate the radiant surface units if
the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning
