Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that
may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium
settings.
b) Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or
when flambéing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, cherries
jubilee, peppercorn beef flambé).
c) Clean the appliance frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on the appliance.
d) Use proper pan size. Always use cookware
appropriate for the size of the surface element or gas
burner.
