For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
garments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while
using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly
flammable and should not be worn while cooking.
DO NOT use aluminum foil to line any part of the rangetop.
Use of a foil liner could result in a shock or fire hazard, or
the obstruction of the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Foil is an excellent heat insulator and heat will be trapped
beneath it. This will upset the cooking performance and can
damage the finish of the rangetop.
When using the rangetop: DO NOT TOUCH THE BURNER
GRATES OR THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREA.
Areas adjacent to the burners may become hot enough to
cause burns.
Never leave the rangetop unattended when using high
flame settings. Boil overs cause smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite. Also, if the burner flames and
igniter are smothered with spillage, unburned gas will
escape into the room. See page 1 regarding gas leaks.
Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-ceramic,
ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed cookware are
suitable for cooking on the rangetop burners. This type of
cookware may break with sudden temperature changes.
Use only on low or medium heat settings according to the
utensil manufacturer’s directions.
DO NOT heat or warm unopened food containers. Build-up
of pressure may cause the container to burst and cause
injury.
During cooking, set the burner control so that the flame
heats only the bottom of the pan and does not extend
beyond the bottom of the pan.
Use caution to insure that drafts like those from forced air
vents or fans do not blow flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the
edges of the pot.
Always use pots and pans that have flat bottoms large
enough to cover the burner. The use of undersized pots
and pans could expose a portion of the flame and may
result in ignition of clothing.
To minimize the risk of burns, ignition of flammable
materials and unintentional spillage, position handles of
pots and pans inward so they do not extend over adjacent
work areas, cooking areas, or the edge of the rangetop.
DO NOT use pots or pans on the grill plate accessory
(purchased separately). Bakeware, such as large
casserole pans, cookie sheets, etc., should never be used
on the rangetop.
DO NOT use flammable cleaners to clean the rangetop.
Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement when
stirring or turning food.
Remove the optional cutting board or griddle cover
accessory, which is stored on top of the griddle plate,
before operating the griddle or any adjacent burners.
GREASE IS FLAMMABLE. Let hot grease cool before
attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits
collect. Clean after each use.
For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep
the igniter ports clean. It is necessary to clean the ports
when there is a boil over or when the burner does not light
even though the electronic igniters activate. See cleaning
instructions for the “Brass Burner Base and Cast Iron Cap”.
Clean the rangetop with caution. Avoid steam burns; DO
NOT use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the rangetop while
it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied
to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner
manufacturer.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and Save These Instructions
WARNING:
The appliance is for cooking. Based on safety
considerations, never use the rangetop to warm or heat
a room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide
poisoning and overheating of the unit. Also, such use
can damage the rangetop parts.
WARNING:
Avoid using high flame setting with a pan larger than the
grate or with one that spans more than one burner, such
as a griddle, for prolonged periods of time. This can
result in poor combustion that generates harmful by-
products.
