IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Operation and maintenance
Proper installation — Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified
technician.
Never use your appliance for warming or heating the room.
Do not leave children alone — Children should not be left alone or unattended in the area where
the appliance is in use. They should never be allowed to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
Wear proper apparel — Loose-fitting or hanging garments should never be worn while using the
appliance.
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.
Storage in or on appliance — Flammable materials should not be stored in an oven or near
surface units.
Do not use water on grease fires — Smother fire or flame or use dry chemical or foam-type
extinguisher.
Use only dry potholders — Moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may result in burns from
steam. Do not let potholder touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
Use proper pan size — This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size.
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. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
Never leave surface units unattended at high heat settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
Glazed cooking utensils - Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for rangetop service without breaking due to sudden change in
temperature.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent surface units — To reduce
the risk of burns, 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.
Do not cook on broken cooktop — If cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may
penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
Clean cooktop 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.
