Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
When using electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should be followed,
including the following:
• Have the installer show you the location
of the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for
easy reference.
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this guide.
• Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a qualified
technician in accordance with the provided
installation instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this guide. All other servicing
should be referred to a qualified technician.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE COOKTOP POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING
OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area where an
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang
on the cooktop.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED
IN CABINETS ABOVE A COOKTOP—
CHILDREN CLIMBING ON THE
COOKTOP TO REACH ITEMS COULD
BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
cooktop. Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot surface unit and may
cause severe burns.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces
may result in burns from steam. Do
not let pot holders touch hot surface
unit. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in
place of a pot holder. Such cloths can catch fire on
a hot surface unit.
• For your safety, never use your appliance
for warming or heating the room.
• Do not store flammable materials near
the cooktop.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Keep the hood and grease filters clean to
maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate on the cooktop.
• Do not use water on grease fires.
Never pick up a flaming pan.
Turn the controls off. Smother a
flaming pan on surface unit by
covering the pan completely with a well-fitting
lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose
dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Flaming grease outside a pan can be put out by
covering it with baking soda or, if available, by
using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher.
• Clean the cooktop with caution. If a wet
sponge or cloth is used to wipe spills on a hot
surface unit, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Some cleansers can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface.
NOTE: We recommend that you avoid wiping
any surface unit areas until they have cooled and
the indicator light has gone off. Sugar spills are
the exception to this. Please see the Glass
Cooktop Cleaning section.
When the cooktop is cool, use only the
recommended cleaning cream to clean the cooktop.
• Do not operate the glass surface units if
the glass is broken. Spillovers or cleaning
solution may penetrate a broken cooktop and
create a risk of electrical shock. Contact a
qualified technician immediately should your
glass cooktop become broken.
