to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
4. Wear Proper Apparel—Loose fitting or hanging
garments should never be worn while using

5. User Servicing—Do not repair or replace any part
of the appliance unless specifically recommended
in the manual. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
6. Storage in or on Appliance—Flammable materials
(including paper and plastic) should not be stored in
an oven, its storage drawer or near surface units.
7. Do Not Use Water On Grease Fires—Smother fire
or flame, or use dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.

SURFACE
COOKING UNITS
1. Use Proper Pan Size—^This appliance is equipped
with one or more surface units of different sizes.
Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to
cover the surface unit heating element. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of the
heating element to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing. Use of oversized utensils
concentrates heat on cooking surface and can
cause damage to range. Proper relationship of
utensil to burner improves efficiency.
2. Never Leave Surface Units Unattended—Boilover
causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may
ignite.
3. Glazed Cooking Utensils—Only certain types of
glass, ceramic, earthware, or other glazed utensils
are suitable for rangetop service without breaking
due to sudden change in temperature.
4. Utensil Handles Should Be Turned Inward and Not
Extended Over Adjacent Surface Units—^To reduce
the risk of bums, ignition of flammable materials,
and spillage due to unintentional contact with the
utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned
so that it is turned inward, and does not extend over
adjacent surface units.
A CAUTION
Do not store items of interest to children in
cabinets above a range or on the backguard of a
range—children climbing on the range to reach
items could be seriously injured.
GLASS/CERAMIC
COOKING SURFACES
1. Do Not Cook on Broken Cooktop—If cooktop
should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of
electrical shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
2. Clean Cooktop With Caution—If a wet sponge or
cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area,
be careful to avoid a steam bum. Some cleaners
can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface.
