IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING
YOUR COOKTOP
•Knowwhichknobcontrolseachsurfaceheating
unit. Place pan of food on the element before turning
it on, and turn the element off before removing the
pan.
•
UseProperPanSize—This appliance is equipped with
one or more surface burners of different sizes. Select
utensils having at bottoms large enough to cover the
surface unit. The use of undersized utensils will expose
a portion of surface heating unit to direct contact and
may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of
utensil to the surface will also improve efciency.
UtensilHandlesShouldBeTurnedInward
andShouldNotExtendOverAdjacentSurface
Units—To reduce the risk of burns, ignition of
ammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil.
DonotuseSearingGrillonthecooktop—The
Searing grill is not designed for use on the cooktop.
Doing so may result in a re.
NeverLeaveSurfaceUnitsUnattended—Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite, or
a pan that has boiled dry may melt.
ProtectiveLiners—Do not use aluminum foil to line
oven bottom or any other part of the appliance. Only
use aluminum as recommended for baking if used as a
cover placed on the food. Any other used of protective
liners or aluminum foil may result in a risk of electric
shock or re or a short circuit.
GlazedCookingUtensils—Only certain types of glass,
glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking
due to the sudden change in temperature. Check the
manufacturer’s recommendations for cooktop use.
DoNotUseDecorativeSurfaceBurnerCovers.
If an element is accidentally turned on, the decorative
cover will become hot and possibly melt. Burns will
occur if the hot covers are touched. Damage may also
be done to the cooktop.
