SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
Adequate supply of air. Your kitchen
must provide an adequate supply of
fresh air to ensure proper combus-
tion and ventilation.
Start the ventilation hood approxi-
mately five minutes before cooking
on the cooktop; this establishes an
air curtain, and improves the capture
of vapor and moisture.
Wear proper apparel. Never let loose
clothing or other flammable materi-
als come in contact with the burners
while in operation. Fabric may ignite
and cause personal injury.
Always use dry pot holders when
removing pans from the cooktop.
Wet or damp pot holders can cause
steam burns. Do not use a towel or
bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
Choose pans with easily grasped
handles that will stay cool while
cooking. Refer to Cookware Selec-
tion on page 14.
When cooking, set burner controls
so that the flame does not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan.
Always turn panhandles inward so
they do not extend over adjacent
work areas, burners or the edge of
the cooktop.
