a qualified technician immediately.
Clean Cook-top With Caution – If a wet sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
cooking area, be careful to avoid steam burn. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Do Not Heat Unopened Food Containers – Build-up of pressure may cause container to
burst and result in injury.
