When using the cooktop
Grease
l
Do not cook on a broken cooktop.
If cooktop should break, cleaning
solutions and spillovers could
penetrate the broken cooktop and
create a risk of electrical shock.
Contact a qualified technician
immediately.
l
Select a pan with a flat bottom
that is about the same size as the
surface unit. If pan is smaller than
the surface unit, some of the
heating element will be exposed
and could result in the igniting of
clothing or pot holders. Correct
pan size also improves cooking
efficiency.
l
Check to be sure glass cooking
utensils are safe for use on the
cooktop. Only certain types of
glass, glass-ceramic, ceramic,
earthenware, or other glazed
utensils are suitable for cooktops
without breaking due to the sud-
den change in temperature.
l
Never leave surface units unat-
tended at high heat settings. A
boilover could result and cause
smoking and greasy spillovers
that could ignite.
l
Disconnect the electrical supply
before servicina the cooktoo.
l
Turn pan handles
inward, but not
over other surface units. This will
help reduce the chance of burns,
igniting of flammable materials,
and spills due to bumping of
the pan.
l
Grease is flammable. Do not
allow grease to collect around
cooktop. Wipe spillovers
immediately.
l
Do not use water on grease
fires. Never pick up a flaming
pan. Smother flaming pan on
cooktop by covering with a well-
fitted lid, cookie sheet, or flat
tray. Flaming grease outside of
pan can be extinguished with
baking soda or, if available, a
multipurpose dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher.
Care and cleaning
l
Clean cooktop with care. Some
cleaners could produce noxious
fumes if applied to a hot sur-
face. If a wet paper towel is
used to wipe spills on a hot
cooking area, be careful to
avoid steam burns.
l
Do not repair or replace any
part of the cooktop unless
specifically recommended in
this manual. All other servicing
should be referred to a qualified
technician.
