Everything stays clean twice as long in a flameless electric kitchen There's no flame to create dirt that smudges walls or ceilings. A clean-cooking electric range cooks without soiling, keeps your kitchen clean about twice as long. Result: you spend half as much time and money on washing and decorating. Heats food--not you. A flameless electric range transfers heat to the pan and directly Into foods--not your kitchen. The oven is insulated on all six sides (not just five). Hardly any heat escapes. Your kitchen stays at least ten degrees cooler. When you build, buy an appliance, or remodel your kitchen, keep in mind the clean, fume-free cooking you get in a flameless electric range. y Public Service Company wmm So Clean, So Safe, So Modem O Commonwealth Edison Company I
