Important Safety Instructions
If pan is smaller than element, a portion of the element will
be exposed to direct contact and could ignite clothing or
potholder.
Only certain types of glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic, earthen-
ware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop or
oven service without breaking due to the sudden change in
temperature. Follow utensil manufacturer’s instructions
when using glass.
This appliance has been tested for safe performance using
conventional cookware. Do not use any devices or accesso-
ries that are not specifically recommended in this manual.
Do not use eyelid covers, stove top grills or add-on oven
convection systems. The use of devices or accessories that
are not expressly recommended in this manual can create
serious safety hazards, result in performance problems, and
reduce the life of the components of this appliance.
Turn pan handle toward center of cooktop, not out into the
room or over another surface element. This reduces the risk
of burns, ignition of flammable materials, or spillage if pan is
accidently bumped or reached by small children.
If appliance is installed near a window, precautions should be
taken to prevent curtains from blowing over surface ele-
ments.
NEVER use appliance to warm or heat the room. Failure to
follow this instruction can lead to possible burns, injury, fire,
or damage to the appliance.
NEVER wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using
the appliance. Clothing could catch utensil handles or ignite
and cause burns if garment comes in contact with hot
heating elements.
To ensure proper operation and to avoid damage to the
appliance or possible injury, do not adjust, service, repair or
replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recom-
mended in this guide. Refer all other servicing to a qualified
technician.
NEVER store or use gasoline or other combustible or flam-
mable materials in the ovens, near surface units or in the
vicinity of this appliance as fumes could create a fire hazard
or an explosion.
To prevent grease fires, do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate in or near the appliance.
Use only dry potholders. Moist or damp potholders on hot
surfaces may result in a steam burn. Do not let potholders
touch hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth which could easily touch hot heating elements
and ignite.
Always turn off all controls when cooking is completed.
NEVER heat unopened containers on the surface unit or in
the ovens. Pressure build-up in the container may cause
container to burst resulting in burns, injury or damage to the
appliance.
NEVER use aluminum foil to line drip bowls or cover oven
racks or oven bottoms. This could result in risk of electric
shock, fire, or damage to the appliance. Use foil only as
directed in this guide.
Aerosol-type cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and
may be highly flammable. Do not use or store near appliance.
Cooktop
NEVER leave surface units unattended especially when
using high heat. An unattended boilover could cause smok-
ing and a greasy spillover can cause a fire.
This appliance is equipped with different size surface ele-
ments. Select pans with flat bottoms large enough to cover
element. Fitting pan size to element will improve cooking
efficiency.
Coil Elements
To prevent damage to removable surface heating ele-
ments, do not immerse, soak or clean in a dishwasher or
self-clean oven. A damaged element could short resulting
in a fire or shock hazard.
Make sure drip bowls are in place as absence of these
bowls during cooking could damage wiring.
Protective Liners: Do not use aluminum foil to line
surface unit drip bowls or oven bottoms, except as sug-
gested in the guide. Improper installation of these liners
may result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
Heating Elements
NEVER touch surface or oven heating elements, areas near
elements, or interior surfaces of ovens.
Heating elements may be hot even though they are dark in
color. Areas near surface elements and interior surfaces of
the ovens may become hot enough to cause burns. During
and after use, do not touch or let clothing or other flam-
mable materials contact heating elements, areas near
elements, or interior surfaces of ovens until they have had
sufficient time to cool.
Other potentially hot surfaces include: Cooktop, areas facing
the cooktop, oven vent, and surfaces near the vent opening,
oven doors, areas around the doors and oven windows.
