cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
■ Neverleaveoilunattendedwhilefrying.Ifallowed
to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite
resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding
cabinets.Useadeepfatthermometerwhenever

■ Toavoidoilspilloverandfire,useaminimum
amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid
cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.

large enough for the element to detect the pan and
be able to deliver full power.
■ Tominimizethepossibilityofburns,ignitionof
flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a
container should be turned toward the center of the
