• Hold the handle of the pan when stirring or turning food. This helps prevent
spills and movement of the pan.
• Use Proper Pan Size. The use of undersized cookware will expose a portion
of the heating element or burner to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the sur-
face heating unit. This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of
different size. Proper relationship of cookware to heating element or burner
will also improve efficiency.
• Always position handles of utensils inward so they do not extend over adja-
cent work areas, burners, or the edge of the cooktop. This reduces the risk of
fires, spills and burns.
• Adjust burner flame size so that it does not extend beyond the edge of the
cookware. Proper relationship of cookware to burner flame reduces safety
risks.
Food Safety • CAUTION: To maintain food safety, follow these guidelines:
1) 1) DO NOT use the warming drawer to heat cold food (exception: it is safe
to use the drawer to crisp crackers, chips or dry cereal and to warm
plates.
2) 2) Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The USDA recommends
holding hot food at 140°F or warmer.
