IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
Have the installer show you the location of the cooktop gas shut-off valve and how to shut it
off if necessary.
■ Have your cooktop installed and properly
grounded by a qualified installer, in
accordance with the Installation
Instructions. Any adjustment and service
should be performed only by qualified gas
cooktop installers or service technicians.
■ Do not attempt to repair or replace any
part of your cooktop unless it is specifically
recommended in this manual. All other
service should be referred to a qualified
technician.
■ Locate the cooktop out of kitchen traffic
path and out of drafty locations to prevent
pilot outage and poor air circulation.
■ Plug your cooktop into a 120-volt
grounded outlet only. Do not remove the
round grounding prong from the plug.
If in doubt about the grounding of the
home electrical system, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have an
ungrounded outlet replaced with a
properly grounded, three-prong outlet in
accordance with the National Electrical
Code. Do not use an extension cord with
this appliance.
■ Let the burner grates and other surfaces
cool before touching them or leaving them
where children can reach them.
■ Be sure all packaging materials are
removed from the cooktop before
operating it to prevent fire or smoke
damage should the packaging material
ignite.
■ Be sure your cooktop is correctly adjusted
by a qualified service technician or installer
for the type of gas (natural or LP) which is
to be used. Your cooktop can be converted
for use with either type of gas. See the
Installation Instructions in the LP
Conversion Kit.
■ Do not leave children alone or unattended
where a cooktop is hot or in operation.
They could be seriously burned.
■ Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or
hang on the cooktop.
■ When raising or lowering the vent, keep
fingers away from all vent parts; assure that
cookware, pans and handles will not be
struck and tipped when raising the vent.
■ Do not operate or clean your cooktop if
the glass is broken or cracked. Cleaning
solutions and spillovers could penetrate the
broken cooktop and create a risk of
electric shock. Call for service immediately
if the cooktop glass breaks or cracks.
