Always use the LITE position when igniting the top
burners and make sure the burners
have ignited.
Never leave the surface burners unattended at
high flame settings. Boilovers cause smoking and
greasy spillovers that may
catch on fire.
Adjust the top burner flame size so it does
not extend beyond the edge of the cookware.
Excessiveflame is hazardous.
, Use only dry pot holders-moist or damp pot
holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let pot holders come near open
flames when lifting cookware. Do not use a towel
or other bulky cloth in place of a pot holder.
When using glass cookware, make sure it
isdesigned for top-of-range cooking.
, To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of
flammable materials and spillage, turn cookware
handles toward the side or back of the range
without extending over adjacent burners.
Carefully watch foods being fried at a high flame
setting.
Always heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats.
Do not leave any items on the cooktop. The hot air
from the vent may ignite flammable items and will
increase pressure in closed containers, which may
cause them to burst.
If a combination of oils or fats will be used
in frying, stir together before heating or
as fats melt slowly.
Use a deep fat thermometer whenever
possible to prevent overheating fat beyond
the smoking point.
Do not operate the burner without all burner parts
in place.
Use the least possible amount of fat for effective
shallow or deep-fat frying. Filling the pan too full of
fat can cause spillovers when food isadded.

Do not flame foods on the cooktop. If you do flame
foods under the hood, turn the fan on.
Do not usea wok on the cooking surface
if the wok has a round metal ring that is placed
over the burner grate to support the wok. This ring
acts as a heat trap, which may damage the burner
grate and burner head. Also, it may cause the
burner to work improperly. This may cause a carbon
monoxide level above that allowed by current
standards, resulting in a health hazard.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost
on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can
cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of
the pan.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a
deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat iscool.
Do not leave plastic items on the cooktop- they
may melt if left too close to the vent.
Keep all plastics away from the surface burners.

curtainsthat couldblow overthe surfaceburners
and create a fire hazard.
Ifyou smell gas, turn off the gas to the range and
call a qualified service technician. Never use an
open flame to locate a leak.
Always turn the surface burner controls off before
removing cookware.
When disabling range lock-out, make sure the
surface controls are set to the OFF position. This will
preclude gas flow when the range isturned on.
