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 an appropriate 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 element will also improve efficiency.
Never leave an element unattended at HI heat settings - boilover causes smoking and
greasy spills that may ignite.
Glazed cooking utensils. Only certain types of glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware
or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the
sudden change in temperature.
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 turned inward,
so that it does not extend over adjacent elements.
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. Turn off
at the wall switch. 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 burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot surface.
